April 12, 2017 | New York

Gas Station TV (GSTV), America’s leading video network at the pump, and Verifone (NYSE: PAY), a world leader in payments and commerce solutions, today announced a 50-50 joint venture that combines the assets and
operations of Verifone’s Pump Media division with GSTV, which is owned by Detroit-based Rockbridge Growth Equity and other investors. The combined business will operate under the GSTV brand and deliver 3.3 billion annual impressions through more than 18,000 locations in all 50 states by year’s end.

On par with other major media brands, the new GSTV will provide marketers with significant reach to a mass audience of 75 million unique viewers every month, including one-in-three adults 18 years and older and nearly 31 million millennials in the United States. National and regional marketers across all industry sectors now have a simple and effective way to reach valuable, highly attentive consumers in an increasingly fragmented media environment.
