Companies increasingly choose cardlock systems for the superior control they provide. Traditional fuel methods like reimbursement or open credit cards create opportunities for error or fraud. Cardlock systems assign each fuel card to a specific driver or vehicle, with limits on fuel type, time of day, or gallons per fill—ensuring fuel is used efficiently.
These systems integrate with most fleet management software, offering real-time insights. For example, unusually high fuel consumption on a truck may indicate maintenance issues, while frequent refueling by a driver could signal route inefficiencies.
Cardlock stations are often located in more convenient spots for large trucks, avoiding congested terminals and long lines. This saves drivers time, which translates into cost savings for companies.
Control and convenience make cardlock systems a smart choice for managing fleet fueling.
