How Do Fuel Cards Work?
Fuel Cards work by enabling individuals and companies to fill up at fuel stations on the site network. Rather than using cash or a credit/debit card, the company provides the driver with a fuel card which they present to the cashier. The company is then billed at a later date by the fuel card provider.
