Available to all customers in a Standard: Store Operations or Tobacco Loyalty plan.
Store owners and operators have told us it takes multiple hours each month to update each store's tobacco pricing. CStore Essentials has partnered with Altria, using their new price promotion API. C-Store Essentials has provided our customers with a tool that will allow them to update their tobacco pricing with a click of a button.
In order to use Altria's pricebook integration, you must sign Altria's AGDC Price Promotion API found in DocBox at https://www.insightsc3m.com or contact your Altria representative for more information on the consent form.
