FleetCard, an Australian fleet management company with over 40 years of experience, is partnering with Chargefox to offer the largest number of electric vehicle charging stations to business fleets through the launch of their new product, FleetCard +Electric.
FleetCard’s collaboration with Chargefox adds an extensive national network of readily available and easily locatable charging stations to FleetCard’s fuelling capabilities. Employees driving an electric vehicle can simply tap the FleetCard +Electric to bill the recharge to the company account, just as they would with a regular fuel card – all on one invoice.
This new product extension seamlessly combines FleetCard’s existing fuel card capabilities with an electric offering all on one card, allowing customers more choice when it comes to how they run their company vehicles. This opens the next chapter of fleet management to Australian businesses, supporting them to confidently add electric vehicles to their fleets as part of a fully comprehensive fleet management service.
Sam Steel, Managing Director of Corpay Australia and New Zealand, FleetCard’s parent company, said that as the industry evolves, FleetCard believes that electric vehicles in fleets are the natural next step to take.
“We’re excited to offer our customers the choice to incorporate EV charging as part of their fleet and fuel card. While the term Fuel Card has meant petrol or diesel until now, electricity is now an important fuel for transport, so it’s natural we added it to the list,” says Mr Steel.
“Our new addition of FleetCard +Electric is helping our customers to make an easy transition to EV, and our partnership with Chargefox gives them access to a vast national network of charging stations, meaning drivers don’t have to stress about on-road charging.”
The addition of electric vehicle charging in combination with FleetCard’s existing petrol and diesel capabilities means Australian businesses can look after all their on-road expenses through one consolidated invoice, no matter their fleet makeup.
Chargefox CEO, John Sullivan, said the partnership provides an exciting opportunity for business fleets across Australia to take the next step into electric vehicles.
“We’re excited to be partnering with FleetCard on the launch of their new EV offering for business fleets. At Chargefox, we offer the largest and fastest-growing number of EV charging stations, through our hundreds of network partners, taking the stress out of EV adoption and helping individuals and businesses make the switch to electric vehicles.”
This unified offering combines fuel of all types – whether it be petrol, diesel or electric, to make the transition to electric vehicles in company fleets simple and easy.
To incorporate this sustainable approach at every step, FleetCard is also rolling out new sustainable cards across their product portfolio, including FleetCard +Electric. The new cards are developed using SICO-R, a sustainable PVC Film produced with 99% recycled PVC made from industrial waste.
