How much can a fuel card save my business?

Fuel card savings scale with litres purchased and the discount on offer, typically landing between 1c and 9c per litre depending on the card, before you factor in the time saved on admin. On, say, 2,000 litres a month, a 6c/L discount is $120 a month in direct fuel savings before any admin time is counted. The bigger number for most businesses is actually the hours saved not reconciling paper receipts, which is harder to put a figure on but adds up faster than people expect. We’ve run through the actual maths, including where the break-even point sits against the monthly card fee, in how much can you really save with a fuel card.
