When considering a new fuel card provider, it’s important to research the various fuel card fees and costs that may be involved. In this guide, we will explore the different types of fees you should look out for when choosing a fuel card for your business. This will include:
- How much business fuel cards cost
- Hidden costs of having a fuel card
- Getting a free fuel card from Fuelwise
How Much Do Business Fuel Cards Cost?
The cost of business fuel cards varies across different suppliers. Some suppliers are known to have different fees such as transactions fees and replacement card fees. These different charges can really rack up and actually limit the amount your business should be saving.
At Fuelwise, we have no hidden fees as our aim is to help your business save money.
What Fuel Card Fees Should I Look Out For?
Sign Up Fee
Some fuel cards will charge up to sign up and receive the cards. When your signing up to save money, you shouldn’t be punished for the privilege. Fortunately, at Fuelwise it is free to get a fuel card.
Network Service Fee
It is not uncommon for some providers to charge you a transaction amount every time you fill up at the pump. This can often be over and above the amount you are paying for the fuel. When running a fleet with multiple vehicles this can soon turn into a very costly charge. If you’re looking for a fuel card that has no transaction fees and you only pay for the fuel you need – then the Fuelwise Fuel Card is the one for you.
Replacement Card Charge
Losing your fuel card can easily happen in this day and age we have more credit and debit cards than ever. We don’t believe you should have to pay for a replacement card, unlike some other fuel card providers.
Change Of Details
In business things are ever-changing. You may move premises, go through a merger or decide to rebrand your business with a new name. When changing your details Fuelwise will charge you nothing.
Non-Use Fee
Our team have spoken many times to new customers who left their previous provider as they were charged when they didn’t use their fuel cards. At Fuelwise you will only pay for the fuel you purchase, and not the fuel you didn’t purchase.
Risk-Based Fees
Our final fuel card fee to cover is a risk-based fee, which is common with other fuel cards providers. At Fuelwise we don’t charge this.
