The forecourt trades 24/7.
Hourly fuel-price pole signs, lottery jackpot tickers, impulse-buy screens and Challenge 25 compliance on every site.
Convenience sells on the last ten feet. Signage is where that sale happens.
A modern convenience store does four jobs at once: fuel, food-to-go, basket impulse, and regulated-product compliance (alcohol, lottery, tobacco, vapes). Each job has its own rhythm and its own screen. Pole signs update twice a day with fuel prices. Pump-screen overlays push car-wash and food-to-go. Impulse-bay screens rotate meal-deals and snacks. Lottery jackpot tickers flip in real time. Compliance reminders (Challenge 25, responsible-drinking, age-verification) run on a scheduled log. Hangar.Media integrates with the POS and fuel-price system you already run so every screen reflects the current trading state.
Built for how convenience & forecourt actually run.
The capabilities that matter in this sector — concrete, specific, and backed by the integrations your team already uses.
Two price changes a day. Every forecourt in the estate. Zero manual ladder work.
Fuel-price pole signs update electronically from the head-office fuel-pricing system. When the regional price changes at 6am, every forecourt's pole sign reflects it within 60 seconds — not on the afternoon van-driver's schedule, not with a cherry-picker. Price-change audit log captures every movement with timestamp and source, export-ready for Weights & Measures or trading-standards inspection.
The regional fuel manager pushes the new price. 400 forecourts update. Nobody climbs a ladder.
- Electronic pole-sign integration with commercial pole-sign hardware (Daktronics, Matic, Nexus)
- Per-site and per-region price variants with central control
- Price-change audit log for trading-standards and tax inspection
- Integration with major fuel-pricing systems (Wayne Fueling, Gilbarco Veeder-Root)
The checkout queue reads the screen. The basket gets heavier.
Countertop and above-checkout screens rotate meal-deals, snack bundles, and add-on offers based on daypart and stock level. When the sausage-roll-and-coffee combo is live at 7am, every screen in the store promotes it. When sausage rolls sell out at 10:23am, the promo disappears everywhere simultaneously — no more 'sorry mate, we're out' conversations at the till.
Basket value rises when the last screen before the till knows what's in stock.
- Checkout and impulse-bay rotation driven by POS stock and daypart schedule
- Auto-hide for sold-out SKUs across every screen in the store
- Meal-deal (£3 / £3.50 / £4) and multi-buy promotion support
- Checkout-adjacent customer-facing screens with add-on prompts
The jackpot changed. The board changed. The queue formed.
Lottery jackpot boards sync with Camelot (UK National Lottery), state-lottery APIs (US), and regional lottery operators. When Euromillions rolls over to £100m, every forecourt in the estate has the new jackpot on the board within a minute. Historical jackpot-to-sales correlation is the biggest driver of ad-hoc in-store footfall this business has.
Friday roll-over hits. The board changes. The Monday sales report shows why it matters.
- Live sync with Camelot, state-lottery and regional operator APIs
- Multi-game display (EuroMillions, Lotto, Set For Life, scratch-cards, state variants)
- Recent-winner alias-only rotation for social-proof
- Roll-over countdown overlays for the next draw
Breakfast sausage roll. Lunch meal-deal. Evening fish-and-chips. Automatic.
Food-to-go counters work on dayparts — breakfast baps from 6am, lunch sandwiches from 11am, hot-food fish-and-chips from 4pm in operators that run evening service. Hangar.Media schedules the menu display, allergen icons (Natasha's Law compliance), meal-deal pricing and hot-counter availability automatically. Staff don't have to remember which sign to flip at 11am — the screens flip themselves.
Breakfast ends, lunch starts, every screen updates on the minute.
- Daypart automation with up to 16 menus per day per screen
- Natasha's Law compliant allergen icons with POS attribute sync
- Hot-food-counter availability with sold-out-item auto-hide
- Meal-deal pricing with POS-locked discount codes at the till
Age-verification. Challenge 25. Responsible drinking. All logged.
Convenience is a regulated environment — alcohol, lottery, tobacco, vapes, fireworks (seasonal). Challenge 25, responsible-drinking and age-verification signage has to be clearly displayed and, in many councils, its display has to be demonstrable for licence renewal. Hangar.Media schedules regulator-mandated messaging with a per-screen minute-by-minute display log. Trading-standards ask what you showed on a given date, the export takes 30 seconds.
Trading standards visit. The audit log exports. Licence renewal is 10 minutes of paperwork.
- Scheduled Challenge 25, responsible-drinking and age-verification messaging
- Per-screen display log with CSV / PDF export for council inspection
- Vape and tobacco display rules configurable per jurisdiction
- Last-orders and closing-time messaging across forecourt and in-store

Can you integrate with electronic fuel-price pole signs?
Yes. We integrate with Daktronics, Matic, Nexus and other commercial pole-sign hardware via their API or protocol adapter. Price changes push from your head-office pricing system (Wayne Fueling, Gilbarco Veeder-Root, or a custom internal system) to every pole sign in the estate within 60 seconds. Audit log captures every change with timestamp, source and operator — export-ready for Weights & Measures or trading-standards inspection.
Which POS systems do you integrate with for convenience?
NCR, Retalix (NCR Counterpoint), Toshiba, Verifone Ruby, Wayne Nucleus, Gilbarco Passport, Square for Retail, and 10+ others common in UK and US convenience. Meal-deal pricing, stock-level sync, and allergen attributes all flow from the POS. We also integrate with forecourt-specific systems like Wayne Fueling and Gilbarco Veeder-Root for pump-screen overlays.
How do lottery jackpot tickers work?
For UK operators, we integrate with Camelot's feed for EuroMillions, Lotto, Set For Life and scratch-card jackpots. For US operators, we integrate with state-lottery APIs (California, New York, Florida, Texas and 30+ others) plus Mega Millions and Powerball national games. Roll-over countdowns and recent-winner (alias-only) social-proof rotations are built in. Lottery content is a material driver of in-store footfall — every operator we've deployed to reports measurable Friday/Saturday lift when the ticker is live.
What does this actually cost for a 200-forecourt convenience estate?
£5 per screen per month, flat. A 200-forecourt operator running 6 screens per site (pole sign, 2 impulse bays, food-to-go, lottery, back-office) pays £6,000 per month for software. Every feature in scope, every integration bundled. No enterprise gate, no volume dance.
