Universally Accepted Fleet Cards
In 2015, Maverik partnered with WEX to provide our customers with universally accepted fleet cards. Consequently, if our fleet customers find themselves outside of the Maverik network, they are still able to purchase fuel at any of the 180,000 U.S. locations accepting the card. The Maverik fleet card can also be used to purchase vehicle maintenance, service, parts, etc. At participating Jiffy Lubes you will be billed with a %15 off discount on your purchase with the Maverik Universal Fleet Card.
Fleet Management
Maverik desires to do more than just provide fuel services in the most cost-effective way, we want to help you more effectively manage your fleet. So, as part of our fleet fueling services, we provide all customers access to our fleet management tool to assist in fleet monitoring and mitigate against controllable problems such as employee theft and indiscriminate purchases. Some functions of the Maverik fleet management tool include:
- Customized purchase controls
- Product-based controls (i.e. fuel only, fuel & oil, fuel & oil & service, or all products)
- Period-based controls (i.e. daily, weekly, bi-weekly, and monthly parameters for $-based transaction constraints and transaction velocity constraints)
- Customized reporting
- Area specific transactions
- By driver, vehicle, department, etc.
- Exception reporting
- Failed transactions
- Fuel type exceptions
- Weekend purchase exceptions
- Payment options
- Online
- By phone
- Direct Debit
- Check
Additional Cost Savings
Take advantage of the following savings:
- Cards provided at no cost to our customers - We want you to have as many cards as you need so that you have every opportunity to purchase fuel from Maverik.
- No transaction fees - We are not in the business of "nickel & diming" our customers. We are determined to turn you into "raving" Maverik customers.
Buy from the "low-price" leader - In addition to the volumetric discounts you receive, you can take comfort in knowing that your employees/drivers are buying fuel at the "low-price" leader. As you direct employees to Maverik locations and take advantage of our fleet discounts, your employees will be deterred from indiscriminately purchasing fuel from higher-priced retailers.
