Relay Payments is now accepted nationwide at TravelCenters of America locations, including Petro Stopping Centers and TA Express locations. Drivers and fleets can pay for diesel fuel and diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) at the pump and in-store using Relay’s cardless, digital experience. Participating locations are searchable in the Relay app, helping drivers quickly find fueling along their routes.

“Our carrier customers have been asking for Relay acceptance at TA,” said Michael Stuewe, SVP, fleet sales, TravelCenters of America. “Now, we’re delivering on that with Relay's digital fuel payments that make fueling quicker, easier, and more secure.”

For drivers and fleets, Relay’s cardless solution streamlines fueling and eliminates risk of fraud due to fuel-card skimming. Operations departments now have more control and less manual work through a fully digital process. 

“TA is an essential stop for our fleets and drivers,” said Ryan Droege, CEO and co-founder of Relay Payments. “Extending Relay acceptance to TA’s network ensures our customers have a fast, secure way to pay wherever the road takes them.”

Customers are backed by Relay’s 24/7/365 U.S.-based customer support team, helping minimize wait times and maximize hours of service.
