The Advantages of Using CRUISE Americard Fuel Cards

Businesses with one vehicle or more need to consider the competitive advantages of a fuel card.  Simply put, fuel cards are a better option for most businesses currently using credit cards, cash or other methods for their fueling and vehicle needs.  Here is a list of advantages that CRUISE Americard customers enjoy.
  • No need for carrying cash or give drivers cash. Cash can easily be lost and create the possibility of theft or loss for your employees. With a fuel card you won't have to worry about losing hard cash or keeping receipts.
  • Our fuel card is accepted at more than 230,000 fuel, service and repair sites. These sites are located all over the United States and your employees won't have to divert their route to find a participating fueling or service station.
  • Traditional credit cards simply list the merchant, a date for the transaction settling (that can be different from the day the fueling occurred), and a total that can easily hide unauthorized spending. 
  • Most companies that use credit cards have time consuming procedures that quickly offset any gains from points or cash back rewards that are sometimes offered with credit cards. 
  • Some companies using credit cards require drivers to keep receipts and or fill out time consuming reports. These receipts and reports are later passed on to be accounted for with spread sheets and other methods involving upper management.
  • Our fuel card itemizes with the detail of a receipt adding to what a credit card provides by showing time of purchase, grade of fuel, type of fuel, amount of gallons, and price of fuel.  Any additional items purchased will also be itemized in detail thus eliminating the need for keeping receipts or generating reports
  • All transaction information is categorized and used for automatically generated reports.  In addition you can see control and manage your account online or call us any time of the day or night to have us walk you through your account.  All account information is collected and made available in real time.
  • Fuel cards prevent fraud – even if the card is stolen, transactions are easily denied as a PIN number is required for use.
  • Fleet efficiency. You will have the tools to see at a glance how effectively your fleet is running.
  • Eliminates wasted time computing or preparing reports with easy-to-use management tools and automatically generated reports. This can free up a lot of time for drivers to work more efficiently.  In addition it frees up accounting and upper management to focus on streamlining your business instead of tracking what happened with vehicle and fuel expenditures.

As you can see, fuel card features and benefits provide a competitive advantage.  Let our fuel cards get your business on the road to success!

CRUISE Americard Gives Needed Control With a Fleet Card

Owning and operating a small business is no easy task, especially with the current economic environment. A good fleet card is a proven business tool.  Controlling and managing company fueling quickly eliminates unnecessary spending.

The CRUISE Americard allows owners and employees to manage expenses when it comes to fueling, servicing or maintaining a fleet of trucks or cars. Whether you're in the landscape business or the moving business, honing down vehicle expenses is a great way to quickly cut overhead.

With our fleet card, you will set pre-determined controls for each card issued. It is comforting to know that your fueling expenses are not abused. The fleet card also requires that employees and or vehicles are assigned a unique driver ID or PIN number. At a minimum, drivers are prompted for their PIN number each time they use the card. This along with detailed receipt information for every use of the card ensure that employees are paying for business related expense and not personal expenses otherwise hidden in the use of cash or the total of a credit card statement. Should a card be lost or stolen, potential transactions by a thief are declined as the driver ID number is required before fueling.

CRUISE Americard can also set alerts. If transactions are taken place outside of your pre-determined criteria, alerts can be immediately sent via text or email to anyone desired. Some examples for pre-determined criteria would include, time of day, day of week, type of purchase, grade of fuel, or kind of fuel purchased. These parameters and many others provide real time information and reporting that could otherwise take weeks or months of waiting and tracking to discover.

During a time of small profit margin, our fleet card ensures there will be no frivolous spending.  With the CRUISE Americard the fleet can easily run efficiently.  Better efficiency will free up your employees to make money and gives your company the competitive edge to stay ahead of your competition.

A Fuel Card Can Help Your Transportation Fleet

Running a transportation fleet of any size takes a lot work. Destinations, various freights, maintenance and quality drivers are all things managers have to keep track. Meanwhile managers have to try to cut costs by using the best routes and coordinating the fleet for maximum efficiency.  The fleet can be just couple trucks for a small construction company or an in-town moving business, efficiency with a fuel card means saving money.

Transportation fleets have to worry about fuel economy and manage costs of fueling up the entire fleet all. Also the drivers themselves want the easiest way to keep their mode of transportation fueled. That's why a fuel card for the company will reduce work and save money for the company that pays 100 percent of the fuel for in-house vehicles.

Fuel cards are a great way to control cash flow by setting pre-determined amounts on the card and also it makes book keeping much easier. It's also convenient for the driver who only needs to swipe the card at the pump and won't have to worry about time-consuming expense sheets.

The complete control of the cards will also yield the most savings. This way you will have control over how much gas is used and when, all while keeping your fleet focused on the job at hand.

A fuel card is a must-have for those managing a transportation fleet. If you're a company that pays for your fleet's fuel then this will eliminate much of the overhead managing work.
