More than a fuel card, cardlock systems offer convenience, security, and control.
Establishing a cardlock fueling program can help benefit your fleet drivers as well as your back office. Cardlocks programs provide you with real-time fuel management and user-friendly reporting without sacrificing convenient fueling options everywhere your routes take you. Plus, you’ll see a stabilization in fuel price, and a decrease in fuel slippage – additional key features that go directly to improving your bottom line.
PRICE – Decrease fuel prices with a cardlock program
- Catch irregularities in fuel purchasing through accurate purchase tracking assigned to driver or truck.
- Reduce exposure to credit-card fraud and cred-card upcharges through closed-network card purchasing.
- Receive available commercial pricing with volume discounts.
- Pay for fuel priced off of the Oil Price Information Services current cost, not fluctuating retail fueling prices, assuring the most competitive price at every cardlock facility.
CONVENIENCE – Cardlocks save time to improve your bottom line
- Cardlocks are available 24-7, every day, so drivers can fill up where and when they need to.
- Designed for large trucks, cardlocks offer drivers high-speed diesel pumps to get your fleet fueled up and back on the road quickly (no waiting in long retail service lines).
- Self-serve pumps are available even in states like Oregon that otherwise mandate full-service fueling.
SECURITY –Â Cardlocks reduce and eliminate internal theft and credit card fraud
- Know when, where, who and how much fuel is purchased at all times.
- Customize your alerts and reporting to keep track of fleet fuel costs.
- Get customized support for fraud prevention and slippage from your cardlock service team.
CONTROL – You decide what parameters govern your fleet’s fuel usage with a cardlock system
- Accurate and straightforward management and reporting on specific vehicles or drivers through programmable “pins”.
- Decide what days and hours employees can use cards.
- Manage locations, fuel types and gallons per fill – every fill.
