How does mobile fueling can simplifying the fuel ordering and delivery process that tie into fuel cards?
Many companies have tanks on site, as well as the ability to fill up at gas stations around the country. Our goal is to send all fueling data, whether on site, or at a retail location, to one single and cloud-based platform. This eliminates the need to manage several databases, websites, or software, as well as the need to manually analyze fuel purchase data coming from several different sources. With one single app and contractor fleet card vertically-integrated approach automates the entire fuel procurement process.
Fuel Me’s Virtual Wallet allows clients to manage all of their payment instruments in one location, and eliminates the need for physical cards.
The procurement process would be streamlined by Fuel Me in the following way:
- Consumers will use the Fuel Me app to view fueling locations as well as real-time pricing nearby and navigate to the fueling location through the app.
- Consumer will arrive at gas station; the app will know it is a fueling location based on SIC code.
- Consumer’s app will recognize the pump, and the card that has been selected in the wallet and will automatically allow the pump to authorize and begin fueling on its selection.
- On completion of fueling, consumer will point the app at the screen, and numbers on the pump will enter to the app in dollars and gallons through AI integration.
- This data will then go into the consumer’s portal as a retail purchase and keep all the historical details of the sale in one location. The consumer will also have the ability to enter mileage for reporting purposes.
By automating both the on-site ordering process as well as the retail fill-up process, fuel consumers will never have to worry about misplaced cards or tracking their costs and expenditures. This will bring greater transparency to the fueling industry while alleviating budget concerns among larger retailers.
