In essence, fuel cards are much like a credit card which can be used to buy fuel at a selection of fuel stations across the UK and Europe. They work in much the same way as a normal credit card does and are much simpler to use than cash, especially if you manage a fleet of vehicles. By giving your drivers fuel cards, you are eliminating the need for them to carry large amounts of cash to fill up, thus improving their safety and ensuring that your money is spent correctly and in a transparent way.
By using fuel cards, you can easily monitor your fuel costs and keep track on where your money is being spent. Each individual fuel card can be tracked in the system, thus, ensuring that all drivers can be monitored and efficiency improvements can be made. The fuel used by your drivers will then be paid for at the end of each month, improving your cash flow significantly.
If you are looking to make savings, then CSC can supply you with fuel cards that make it possible to limit the amount of money anyone can spend with a fuel card. This often serves as a good way of improving the efficiency of your drivers and ensures that they use their fuel in a smarter way. Fuel cards will also allow you to monitor when and where fuel is purchased, which, again, helps you to make savings and improve routes taken by drivers.
What's more, keeping track of your costs is made much simpler than before. Instead of having your drivers save all their receipts and then having to sift through them all to work out your expenditure, you are simply invoiced for your purchases at the end of the month. This cuts down on the hassle involved with working out your fuel costs and further saves you time and money on the admin front.
