# Overview

The Marshall Pro (Fuel) protocol is a command-based JSON interface designed for clear communication between a Point-of-Sale (POS) or ForeCourt Controller (FCC) and VPOS payment terminals.

Built specifically for the fueling and service industries, this protocol allows your system to manage the entire customer journey with precision. It provides a unified way to handle hardware interactions using standard UTF-8 JSON messages over a stable network connection.
