The fuel distribution system with correction mechanism includes systems and methods for distributing fuel at a plurality of fuel pumps. Fuel is distributed at a first fuel pump and at a second fuel pump. Erroneously, multiple payments are received for the distribution of fuel at the first fuel pump. One of the multiple payments is applied to an outstanding transaction of the second fuel pump. The difference amount between the payment applied to the second fuel pump and an amount associated with the outstanding transaction of the second fuel pump is calculated and resolved.
