In a gasoline dispenser system, a dispenser head includes a PIN PAD for permitting a customer to privately enter their personal Identification Number into the PIN PAD at a location remote from the dispenser head, for permitting the PIN number to be transmitted to a receiver in the dispenser head, for processing via a point-of-sale authorization controller, to either authorize or deny a transaction between the customer and associated service station.
