Most fuel-card rankings are written by companies that sell fuel cards. FuelHere doesn't sell cards, doesn't take placement fees, and publishes the criteria below so you can check our work.
Independence: FuelHere does not currently accept placement fees or affiliate commissions from any fuel-card provider. Reviews are based on publicly available information and editorial research, not first-hand contract pricing.
Published cents-per-gallon figures are usually ceilings, and issuers pick the averaging window that flatters them. We describe the structure — where the discount applies, what conditions attach (on-time payment, in-network fueling, volume tiers) — and point every reader at the savings calculator to test the math on their own gallons.
Setup fees, per-card monthly fees, transaction fees, out-of-network fees, late fees. Where an issuer doesn't publish a fee, we say 'not publicly published — ask before signing' rather than guessing.
A 50¢ discount at stations your drivers never pass is worth nothing. We describe each card's network (truck-stop chains vs. retail gas stations) and who that geography actually serves.
Credit-line cards, charge cards paid in full monthly, and prepaid models suit different operations. We flag which model each card uses and the cash-flow consequences.
Purchase controls, driver PINs, IFTA-ready reporting, and accounting exports — the operational features that decide whether a card survives contact with a real back office.
Every review names the operator the card does not fit. A recommendation with no counter-case is marketing.
