Your guide to diesel fuel cards
Diesel’s fuel efficiency rating makes it one of the most lucrative options for transportation companies across the globe. Fewer moving parts make diesel engines the champions of long-distance travel, great for heavy goods vehicles (HGVs) and high mileage fleets. Additionally, the diesel alternative hydrogenated vegetable oil (HVO) fuel can be used in any diesel engine as a way to significantly reduce your carbon footprint. If you run a fleet of diesel vehicles, diesel fuel cards can help you to monitor your fuel spending and run reports on your company’s carbon footprint. Combine all of your fleet administration tasks into a single login, and switch your fuel payments to weekly invoicing to keep paperwork manageable.
The benefits of diesel fuel cards
No unauthorised use
Diesel cards can only be used to pay for diesel, and drivers cannot use them to top up unauthorised petrol vehicles.
Additional security
Restricting your fuel cards to diesel vehicles prevents stolen cards from being used to pay for petrol.
Competitive tariffs
Benefit from competitive diesel tariffs offered by your fuel card provider.
HGV accessibility
Diesel card brands aim to provide networks of HGV-accessible stations across the UK, making it easy for your drivers to top up anywhere.
Easy administration
Manage and monitor your fleet with a single online login, letting you run reports on past invoices and check when and where your drivers top up.
Which industries can use diesel cards?
Sole traders
Sole traders operating diesel vans or cars could benefit from a diesel fuel card. Separate your business expenses with a single weekly invoice and keep a separate fuel card in your wallet to avoid using your personal cards.
Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs)
Whether your company is employing more staff or investing in a bigger fleet, getting on top of administration is a growing business’ top priority. Fuel cards for diesel engines can help to manage the influx of paperwork brought on by this new stage of your company's growth.
Enterprises
Fleets of diesel-powered HGVs can take an incredible number of resources to manage and monitor from HQ. A diesel fuel card plan can help to streamline your company’s paperwork into a single online portal, cutting down admin time and letting your company focus on growth.
