Your drivers are constantly on the road managing tight routes, high delivery volumes, and long hours.

Here are the top questions we hear from delivery company owner-operators and how Fillip’s digital fuel card helps you manage fuel, track driver spending, and keep your service running efficiently.

1. We have multiple drivers using different vehicles — how do I track who’s fueling up which van?

With Fillip, fuel cards are assigned to the driver. So whether someone’s using a company van or their own car, every transaction is logged with their name, time, location, and transaction amount. The vehicle can be selected from a dropdown list when a purchase is made to track which unit is being fueled - or Fillip Connect smart tags handle this automatically. 

2. We can’t afford to take detours — does Fillip work everywhere?

Yes. Fillip works at any station that accepts Visa. Your drivers can fuel up wherever their route takes them, even in rural communities.

3. We cover multiple delivery zones — can I see fuel spend by region or route?

Yes. You can tag and filter transactions by region, shift, driver, or client. This helps you track performance, spot high-cost routes, and export reports aligned with your operations.

4. Can I control when and how often drivers use their fuel cards?

Yes. You can set custom rules by day, time, location, transaction amount, and even number of uses. If your drivers only work certain shifts or zones, you can keep usage aligned with their schedule — and adjust on the fly.

5. How do I prevent drivers from using the card to fill up personal vehicles?

If personal fueling is a worry, we recommend you use Fillip Connect smart tags. They are attached to a vehicle and must be used to make a purchase. If the vehicle isn’t at the pump, the transaction won’t go through. Our system also tracks fuel grade, volume, and location and flags anything suspicious, like overfueling or off-route activity.

6. How does this help my drivers stay on time?

The fueling process is extremely efficient with Fillip. Your drivers can stop at any station, tap their smartphone to pay, snap a photo of the receipt, and get right back on the road. Best of all, your drivers aren’t doing expense admin in their off-hours.

7. What if a driver leaves or finishes a contract?

You can cancel or suspend their card in one click. And if they come back for seasonal or overflow work, you can reactivate it just as easily.

8. What kind of reports can I generate for accounting or client billing?

Fillip provides exportable reports with tax breakdowns, driver info, fuel type, and location data. You can generate reports for any time period — or let your bookkeeper log in directly for even faster reconciliation.

9. How does Fillip help with budgeting and forecasting fuel spend?

With real-time dashboards and historical reporting, you can track trends across routes, drivers, regions, or seasons. With a clearer picture of spending patterns, it’s easier to plan ahead, set accurate budgets, and manage your cash flow.

10. My business is growing — how does Fillip support everything that comes with that?

Whether you're adding multiple drivers or launching a whole new route, Fillip scales naturally with you. You can issue new cards in seconds, create custom rules for different teams or shifts, tag spending to keep it organized, and track everything in one place. Growing your business shouldn’t create more admin work - Fillip makes sure of that.
