Fleet Card FAQ

Fleet gas cards are a better way to manage fuel expenses for business vehicles. Fuel prices rise and fall, but a fleet card helps give you consistent savings beyond the pump—a valuable edge for any business. The WEX FlexCard and WEX Fleet Card help by letting you control employee spending, identify potential fraud or misuse, automatically track your purchases online, and more.

No. A “fleet” can be a single company vehicle, thousands of trucks, or anything in between. WEX fleet fuel cards benefit businesses of all sizes.

WEX fuel cards are accepted at 95% of U.S. gas stations. No more planning routes around where to fuel or driving out of your way for a particular station. We even have a mobile app to find the cheapest nearby fuel. WEX fuel cards are also welcome at 45,000+ vehicle service locations.

The WEX FlexCard and WEX Fleet Card offer many advantages over cash or credit cards. Cash is easily lost or stolen, and you may not have a lot of control over how or where employees spend it. Credit cards provide basic purchase info, but not much insight into your spending. WEX fuel cards eliminate the busywork and hassle of tracking fuel expenses
