Then, the gas pump system authenticates said numbers and indicates that you'll be saving 10cents for each gallons, and then moves onto the usual transaction screen: i.e. it asks you credit or debit, you make your selection & do your normal card transaction. At this or around this point, you should see the price per gallon on the pump station reduce by 10 cents. Exactly at which point it does this varies from gas station to gas station, I noticed. And, the receipt printout should show it too.

Addendum: oh, and those old Shell stations w/ ghetto pump system aren't equipped for this.
