Getting a fuel card: Everything you need to know
For businesses operating with any number of vehicles, fuel cards are a brilliant solution to invoicing, tax returns and filing expense claims. Individual fuel payments can be complicated for fleet operators to manage, and monitoring fuel usage and costs requires compiling various documentation to produce clear and concise information. A fuel card gathers all of your fleet information into one place, cutting down the time and resources spent on administrative processes and planning.
How to choose your fuel card
1. Get advice
Radius offers fuel cards for all business needs, our fuel card form will help you to narrow down your options. Our team of experts is here to recommend the best fuel cards for your fleet, whether you operate cars, vans or heavy goods vehicles (HGVs). Simply give us a few details about your business and your requirements and we’ll send you our recommendations.
2. Decide on a card
With this information, we’ll help you decide which fleet fuel card would benefit you most. Radius offers cards for all major brands, including Esso, Shell, BP, Texaco and major supermarkets, and provides you with all the information you need on pricing, features, and fuel stations. We can also easily swap your fuel cards to a different brand if your local station changes brands, and we don’t require a new fuel card application to do so.
