It boasts <span style=\"font-weight: 400\">no annual card fee, no transaction fee, and no replacement card fee.<\/span>\n<p>The unfolding situation in the Middle East, combined with the war in Ukraine, means fuel prices will stick at above-average rates for the forseeable. That makes finding a fuel card to keep overheads down imperative for small business fleets.<\/p>\n<p>But FuelGenie has a smaller fuel station network than rivals like <strong>Allstar One<\/strong> and <strong>BP Supercharge<\/strong>, which means it may not suit your company&rsquo;s location. And, in today&rsquo;s inflationary environment, it&rsquo;s vital to find the best deal you can to avoid jeopardising cash flow.[\/vc_column_text]\n <\/p><div class=\"highlight-box\">\n <div

Employees are each allocated a fuel card which they can use to fill up at a wide network of petrol stations <i>without&nbsp;<\/i>having to pay VAT.<\/p>\n<p>Fuel cards mean no more hours spent searching around for physical receipts for fuel. Instead, employers will receive a single VAT invoice. This makes expenses much simpler to claim back from HMRC, plus employees won&rsquo;t have to spend weeks waiting for an expense claim to come through. Cards can be cancelled or added at any time.<\/p>\n<p>Most providers offer either a weekly price card or a pump price card. As it sounds, the fixed weekly price card means every litre of fuel you buy on that card will be charged at a set amount, avoiding price fluctuations. Alternatively, with a pump price card, employees will be charged the price at the pump every time they refuel.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column]<\/p><div class=\"jumplink-anchor-section\">\n <div class=\"jumplink-anchor-pointer\" id=\"link-1-fuelgenie\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n[vc_column_text]\n<h2>1.

Unlike all of its rivals, it charges no basic fees, so no account fee, no transaction fee, even no card replacement fee. In fact, the only charges are a very reasonable &pound;5 each for hard copy invoices and &pound;49 for returned direct debits.\r\n\r\nThe major drawback is you'll only be able to get discount fuel from supermarket fuel stations (these generally charge the lowest prices thanks to economies of scale), with a combination of Tesco, Morrisons and Sainsbury's producing a relatively small network of around 1,350 branches. \r\n\r\nHowever, your drivers will be able to earn loyalty points on their fuel purchases and you'll get an unlimited number of free cards, online account management and pre-approved HMRC invoices.\r\n\r\nAs long as you can cope with a limited choice of fuel stations, then FuelGenie is an excellent way to save money on your small business fuel expenses. <\/div>\n <span class=\"toggle-button\">\n Show <span class=\"more\">more<\/span><span class=\"less\">less<\/span> <\/span>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<div class=\"cta-content\" data-eventcategory=\"cta-banner\" data-component=\"cta-image\">\n\n \n <div class=\"cta-content-part\">\n\n <span class=\"cta-content-heading\">\n FuelGenie at a glance <\/span>\n \n <p>Almost no fees, plus a simple approach to managing expenses online or via an app<\/p>\n \n <a class=\"cta-content-link\" href=\"https:\/\/webforms.startups.co.uk\/fuel-cards?nwid=postanchor\" data-cta-type=\"cta-image-link\" target=\"_self\">See how costs compare for your own business <\/a>\n <\/div>\n\n \n<\/div>\n[vc_column_text]\n<h3>&#128184; FuelGenie pricing<\/h3>\n<p>FuelGenie has a unique pricing model. Basically, there are no fees &ndash; there&rsquo;s no account fee, no transaction fee, and none of the other standard fees charged by fuel card providers. The only things you&rsquo;ll pay for are hard copy invoices (&pound;5 each) and returned direct debits (&pound;49 each time).<\/p>\n<p>This is especially beneficial given today&rsquo;s inflationary environment. The cost of living crisis has sent everyday costs spiralling, and anything you can do to keep overheads down will go a long way to strengthening your company cash flow.<\/p>\n<p>Users can pay more for the newly-released FuelGenie+ tier. This card is closely partnered with Shell to allow access to a wider range of locations than the cheaper FuelGenie card. Costing &pound;6 per month, per card it is the more expensive option, but worth it if your drivers need access to a bigger range of forecourts.<\/p>\n<h3>&#128205;&#128506;&#65039; FuelGenie locations<\/h3>\n<p>FuelGenie&rsquo;s low cost does come at a price. You&rsquo;ll only be able to get discounted fuel from Tesco, Morrisons and Sainsbury&rsquo;s fuel stations, which means a relatively small network of 1,350 branches.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h3>&#128161; FuelGenie verdict<\/h3>\n<p>FuelGenie&rsquo;s ultra low cost pricing model makes it our top overall choice for the best small business fuel card, businesses just need to make sure the limited choice of fuel stations works for them.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column]<\/p><div class=\"jumplink-anchor-section\">\n <div class=\"jumplink-anchor-pointer\" id=\"link-2-the-fuel-store-card\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n[vc_column_text]\n<h2>2.

It's easy and quick to sign up and, once you've got going, you'll be able to track usage with online account management tools.\r\n\r\nTo keep things simple, drivers can also pay for additional vehicle products like motor oil and lubricant with The Fuel Store Card, and you can quickly tackle the admin with pre-approved HMRC invoices.\r\n\r\nAll this adds up to a great fuel card package for small businesses that want consistent fair pricing that they can rely on. <\/div>\n <span class=\"toggle-button\">\n Show <span class=\"more\">more<\/span><span class=\"less\">less<\/span> <\/span>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<div class=\"cta-content\" data-eventcategory=\"cta-banner\" data-component=\"cta-image\">\n\n \n <div class=\"cta-content-part\">\n\n <span class=\"cta-content-heading\">\n The Fuel Store Card at a glance <\/span>\n \n <p>Low annual fee plus a simple fixed weekly price structure<\/p>\n \n <a class=\"cta-content-link\" href=\"https:\/\/webforms.startups.co.uk\/fuel-cards?nwid=postanchor\" data-cta-type=\"cta-image-link\" target=\"_self\">See how costs compare for your own business <\/a>\n <\/div>\n\n \n<\/div>\n[vc_column_text]\n<h3>&#128184; The Fuel Store Card pricing<\/h3>\n<p>The Fuel Store offers virtually no public pricing information, but we do know that it has a &pound;15 per card per year account fee. You must also purchase at least 300+ litres per month otherwise a &pound;10 charge is applied.<\/p>\n<p>This fee is common among fuel card providers but it is a particular drawback in today&rsquo;s poor economy (FuelGenie does not have any minimum spend charges). Consider your average fuel usage per month before investing in a Fuel Store Card as you don&rsquo;t want to risk being hit with this nasty charge per card each month.<\/p>\n<p>One of the best ways to find out how much fuel cards will cost for your business is to use our handy free &#128269;<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/webforms.startups.co.uk\/fuel-cards\">fuel card comparison tool<\/a><\/strong>.

The &pound;24 per year account fee may seem steep but BP doesn't charge transaction fees, and the annual account fee falls to &pound;18 per card for 100 vehicles+ and &pound;12 for 200+ vehicles. For that, you get access to a huge network of over 7,600 fuel stations covering 90% of the UK, customisable parameters that allow your drivers to pay for other vehicle products and make it easier to control total fleet expenses, HMRC-compliant invoices, and the ability to earn reward points on BP transactions.\r\n\r\nIf you've got a big active fleet, then BP Supercharge should be top of your list. <\/div>\n <span class=\"toggle-button\">\n Show <span class=\"more\">more<\/span><span class=\"less\">less<\/span> <\/span>\n <\/div>\n <\/div>\n<div class=\"cta-content\" data-eventcategory=\"cta-banner\" data-component=\"cta-image\">\n\n \n <div class=\"cta-content-part\">\n\n <span class=\"cta-content-heading\">\n BP Supercharge at a glance <\/span>\n \n <p>An outstanding option for larger fleets, who will benefit from lower cost per card<\/p>\n \n <a class=\"cta-content-link\" href=\"https:\/\/webforms.startups.co.uk\/fuel-cards?nwid=postanchor\" data-cta-type=\"cta-image-link\" target=\"_self\">See how costs compare for your own business <\/a>\n <\/div>\n\n \n<\/div>\n[vc_column_text]\n<h3>&#128184; BP Supercharge pricing<\/h3>\n<p>The annual account fee for the BP Supercharge card is &pound;24 per card, but this falls to &pound;18 per card for 100+ vehicles and &pound;12 for 200+ vehicles. BP also does not charge any transaction fees, which makes it a more affordable option compared to Allstar.<\/p>\n<p>Included in this price is access to the BP mobile app, which business users can log into to track your fuel spend, order and cancel your cards. Compared to the UK Fuels Fleetone card which charges &pound;1.50 per month, per card, this is a solid deal.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h3>&#128205;&#128506;&#65039; BP Supercharge locations<\/h3>\n<p>BP&rsquo;s acceptance network is so large, it is equivalent to 9 out of 10 forecourts. This includes all major fuel brands, motorways and supermarkets and &ndash; naturally &ndash; over 1,200 BP sites. However, at 7,600 sites it is just marginally pipped to the finish line by Allstar (7,700).<\/p>\n<h3>&#128161; BP Supercharge verdict<\/h3>\n<p>With a pricing structure that means you save money as your fleet increases, the BP Supercharge card holds obvious appeal for small businesses with big ambitions.<\/p>\n<p>Even at standard pricing though, the lack of transaction fees makes it a real rival to Allstar One &ndash; its network may be slightly smaller but it may work out cheaper overall for your small business.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h2>How do fuel cards work?<\/h2>\n<p>Once your fuel card account has been created, you&rsquo;ll be sent a personalised fuel card for each one of your drivers. Employees are then able to store their fuel card in their wallet for when they go on the road. They can then log into an online fuel card account to view a map of eligible stations.<\/p>\n<p>It&rsquo;s no different to paying for fuel with a debit card &ndash; the driver fills up their tank as normal, inputs their PIN, and pays with the fuel card. All purchases are then invoiced to the employer and payment is taken via direct debit. Fuel cards can also sometimes be used for some vehicle-related expenses like tyre replacement or motorway tolls.<\/p>\n<p>Employers can also log into the account, but they&rsquo;ll have a slightly different view. As account managers, they&rsquo;ll be able to track individual spending habits, to identify where money might be saved. They&rsquo;ll also get data on CO2 emissions, so the business can keep an eye on environmental habits.<\/p>\n<h2>What types of businesses are fuel cards suitable for?<\/h2>\n<p>Fuel cards are suitable for any business that manages a commercial fleet or vehicles. Nonetheless, the time saved on admin, and money saved on VAT payments, makes them a great choice for resource-stretched SMEs. There is usually no minimum spend, so it&rsquo;s no issue if you are a sole trader who has a company vehicle for occasional use.<\/p>\n<p>Rather than faffing around trying to source weeks of receipts in your desk, fuel cards will automate your bill to ensure you remain HMRC-compliant and that employees aren&rsquo;t having to spend their own money on business fuel payments.<\/p>\n<p>Business owners also benefit from extra control and security. Because the card can be assigned to an individual driver or specific vehicle, drivers can only make purchases they have permission for. This makes a fuel card a great alternative to a corporate card or company credit card.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column]<\/p><div class=\"jumplink-anchor-section\">\n <div class=\"jumplink-anchor-pointer\" id=\"link-how-we-test-fuel-cards-for-small-businesses\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2>How we test fuel cards for small businesses<\/h2>\n<p>We tested <strong>13 fuel cards<\/strong> to evaluate them in terms of security, expense management, convenience, and more so we can make the most useful recommendations to small UK-based businesses.<\/p>\n<p>Our rigorous testing process means these products have been scored and rated in <strong>five main categories of investigation<\/strong> and <strong>13 subcategories<\/strong> &ndash; in fact, we covered <strong>43 areas of investigation in total<\/strong>.
