How to apply for a fuel card?

Applying for a fuel card is typically done online, and for most fuel card providers you’ll need an ABN trading for at least six months, and confirmation you’re an authorised officer of the business (director, company secretary or authorised representative). Requirements vary slightly by provider, so it’s worth checking the specific card’s facts page before applying if you’re on a deadline, particularly around ABN trading history, since a very new business can sometimes be knocked back on that alone.
