Fleet management providers Shell and WEX announced the launch of the new and improved Shell Card today. Featuring Shell Card Business and Shell Card Business Flex, the new cards come with a host of benefits to provide convenience for drivers on the road and managers at the desk. 

Features include:

• fuel rebates

• payment flexibility

• access to loyalty offerings

• maintenance discounts 

• and more.  

"The new and improved Shell Card is more than a fuel card and more than a way to save on your everyday fleet expenses,” said Mohamad Kabbani, Head of Shell Fleet Solution US. “It is an all-in-one solution that helps fleet operators unlock new levels of efficiency and performance. The Shell Card is the key to transforming the management of your fleet with actionable data to help control costs and improve operations, and technology that can improve data security and enable your electrification journey.” 

Why A New Shell Card Was Needed

Savings, security and electrification are among the biggest concerns for fleet operators and the new card program addresses all three. The Shell Card features tiered rebates on the fuel drivers buy at Shell stations every billing cycle — up to five cents per gallon for Shell Card Business Flex and up to six cents per gallon for Shell Card Business.

Shell Card Business Flex users are eligible for additional rebates of three cents or five cents per gallon at participating Shell rebate bonus locations, which can be found on the Shell station locator or WEX DriverDash app. Shell helps fleets keep moving with Shell certified TOP TIER™ gasoline scientifically proven to help improve mileage by actively cleaning and preventing engine deposits.   

Shell Card Business Flex now supports fuel purchases at over 95% of US gas stations and public EV charging stations nationwide, which can be located on the Wex DriverDash app. The card enables payment at a comprehensive network of EV charging stations, including:

• Shell Recharge

• Blink

• AmpUp

• ChargePoint

• EVgo

• EV Connect

• Flo

Both fuel and EV charging purchases are conveniently combined within billing statements, reporting, and data usage to help streamline fleet operations. Through DriverDash and WEX’s RFID technology, the Shell Card leverages WEX’s proprietary closed loop payments network to increase the security of each transaction and to transmit charging behavior, driver identification information and vehicle mileage to the fleet manager. 

“There are few EV solutions that simplify charging for commercial drivers and allow fleet managers access to line item charging detail, vehicle performance, and unified billing regardless of charging brand — and even fewer regardless of charging location,” WEX SVP and GM of EV and Mobility, Jay Collins said. “That WEX’s EV solutions accomplish this — while also integrating with metrics from traditional fuel vehicles across a single credit line, invoice, and backend software portal — is illustrative of WEX’s leadership and technical expertise in the commercial mixed fleet space.” 

Other additional benefits of the new card program include preventive maintenance services through the Jiffy Lube Fleet Program, including discounts of up to 20% at participating Jiffy Lube locations. The customizable program helps avoid interruptions to fleet operations and offers flexibility over services, billing, payments and scheduling.  

The Shell Card also offers Fleet Rescue 24/7 emergency roadside assistance for fleet vehicles, with mobile payment that eliminates out-of-pocket expenses for drivers.
