Businesses of all kinds are always looking for ways to reduce costs and thus save money. That has not and will never change. However, the ways in which businesses can save money continues to change. As more and more businesses need to be flexible to their clients, the need for Business fuel cards, fleet fuel cards and fleet management services has seen a significant increase in popularity over the years.
This is due to the fact that more careers and job roles now have the requirement for travel. In addition to the fact that cash is becoming less and less popular, for security and hygiene reasons. So, as more fleet managers become aware of the benefits of using fuel cards, are you aware of the many features these fuel cards offer?
This post aims to highlight the benefits of our UK fuel cards, as well as to help you identify the best fuel card for businesses. If you need any help or support, please contact our customer support team or refer to the fuel card comparison page.
Fuel cards are a simple and streamline way for businesses to pay for their fuel, which have several advantages for fleet management.
Fuel cards eliminate the need for cash or corporate credit cards when paying for fuel. A fuel card is used in the same way but comes with a weekly fixed price per litre, that is often cheaper than the varying costs between stations. This helps to spread the cost of business expenses in order to make weekly, monthly and annual cash flow more manageable.
As well as making cost savings, fuel cards also reduces administration within your business. Instead of having the stress of gathering hundreds of fuel receipts together, a fuel card will come with a single HMRC approved, VAT invoice.
Using fuel cards to manage travel expenses gives business fleets more flexibility for refuelling. This is because our fuel cards give access to a large network of fuel stations across the UK. Sometimes plans and routes change and the ability to use a fuel card across a wide network of stations gives your drivers the freedom to adjust their route in order to make the most effective use of their time on the road. Do you want to know exactly how many fuel stations accept UK fuel cards? Our fuel cards will give you access to a network of over 3,000 branded and non-branded stations across the UK.
So how do you know where a fuel card can be used? We have developed a free tool to help you find your nearest fuel station. Explore our Station Finder today. It is an incredibly useful tool for our customers, as it can be used as a sat nav when downloaded to a drivers phone. Drivers then simply add their route to the system and the nearest fuel stations on their route are highlighted.
