WEX FUELCARD

SAVE ON YOUR FUEL COSTS AND CUT DOWN YOUR ADMIN WORK

As a RED Driver Training instructor, you are eligible to apply for your FREE Esso Card™ (usually costing £43 per card, per year). The Esso Card™ will give you a discount off every litre you fuel up with. There are no fees and you only pay for the fuel you use, at the preferential rates agreed.

The benefits:

RED Driver Training instructors can reap significant potential benefits with their Esso Card™:

  • Reduced fuel costs
  • More efficient route planning
  • Reduced administration burden.

The Esso Card™ removes the need for businesses to keep track of cash, reimburse individual drivers, or hand over a business credit card to employees. And because invoices are tax compliant, month-end accounting is much easier, giving RED Driver Training instructors more time and resources to focus on growing their business.
