UK Fuels fuel card
The fuel card from UK Fuels is one of the newest independent fuel cards available for nationwide use within the UK. Unlike some other fuel cards which are available, the UK Fuels card offers extensive coverage throughout Northern Ireland and the Scottish highlands, as well as in England and Wales. Petrol cannot be purchased using the UK Fuels card as it is aimed at haulage and courier services whose vehicles almost always run on diesel.
Being independent from a specific fuel supplier such as Shell or Texaco, the UK Fuels fuel card can be used at all Morrison's forecourts, many MURCO garages as well as a great number of independent service stations. These can easily be located by using our forecourt finder which can also be accessed whilst on the road via a smartphone or Blackberry.
By taking advantage of the UK Fuels fuel card for your drivers' fuel payments, you'll also be benefiting from paying a weekly fixed wholesale price rather than the published pump prices. Although the discount is minimal on the price per litre, over the course of a year the weekly wholesale prices will offer significant savings over paying regular pump prices.
Being an independent fuel card provider doesn't mean UK Fuels have cut corners on the features and benefits the 'dependent' fuel cards offer. Each card is attributed to either a driver or vehicle and can only be used to purchase diesel or lubricants, making it almost impossible to use for fraudulent purposes.
As with other fuel cards, the UK Fuels card will also free up administrative time as you will no longer be sorting through numerous paper receipts and reimbursing individual drivers on a weekly of monthly basis for their cash payments. When using the UK Fuels fuel card for fuel purchasing, you can wave goodbye to the regular influx of fuel receipts and free up the administrative time spent reimbursing each drivers' expense account.
Your fuel account can be accessed 24 hours a day, 365 days a year which gives detailed information such as the vehicle registration, the site, date, time and amount of fuel drawn for each transaction as well as daily, weekly and monthly totals of all fuel expenditure. Being able to easily access this data enables one to closely analyse how much fuel is being drawn when and where is essential for keeping your fuel costs down without compromising the service you provide.
It costs nothing to start using the UK Fuels cards and with up to two weeks credit given on all fuel purchases will enable many companies to more effectively manage the budgeting of their fuel expenditure, whilst making considerable savings right from day one.
