CardlessSwipe is a digital wallet for commercial fuel cards. With the CardlessSwipe app, drivers can access nearby pumps and complete transactions using digital copies of physical fuel cards at participating locations. CardlessSwipe ensures that drivers and site administrators have constant access to pumps with less logistical support - cards don’t get lost or stolen, and drivers aren’t locked out of systems because of worn cards. When a driver with CardlessSwipe approaches an authorized pump, the CardlessSwipe app will automatically detect the driver’s location and prompt the driver to use one of their stored fuel cards. Drivers can complete the authorization process - including entering odometer information - entirely on their phones. To see if you can use CardlessSwipe, contact your fuel card network administrator.
