Now they can find out when and where to get the cheapest fuel for their vehicles, which has the potential to save them thousands of dollars.
The WEX Motorpass Driver App enables employees and fleet vehicle drivers to find the best fuel prices closest to them, which is critical as interest rates continue to rise and put pressure on Australian small businesses.
The app will allow businesses across sectors such as construction, retail, manufacturing, and transport to find the best fuel prices closest to them in real time and at the touch of a button. The app can be downloaded on iOS and Android.
The launch of WEX Motorpass Driver App comes at a time when rising fuel prices and interest rates are impacting Australian small businesses with petrol prices nudging $2 per litre and the termination of the fuel excise in September.
“We’re launching the WEX Motorpass Driver App at a time when businesses are looking to save precious revenue where possible,” said Matthew Arthur, vice-president, fleet, Asia Pacific at WEX.
“For any small business operating a fleet, be it an online retailer, plumbing business, manufacturer, or the like — fuel can be a major cost. The WEX Motorpass Driver App ensures these businesses, and their drivers, can always find the most cost-effective price available. The revenue saved can be used by business owners for multiple purposes, including investment for growth or back into the business.”
The WEX Motorpass Driver App complements and works in tandem with WEX’s Motorpass Card — one of Australia’s most widely accepted cards for fuel and vehicle-related expenses. The app is simple for businesses and fleet drivers to set up and navigate. Drivers simply log in with their WEX Motorpass card number and can gain real-time pricing insights on fuel at thousands of locations across the country.
