Volatile fuel pricing is one of the biggest challenges facing fleet operators today. According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA), national diesel prices can shift by 20 to 30 cents per gallon—or more—within a single month. For fleets that fuel up daily, even small per-gallon swings can significantly disrupt monthly budgets.

That’s where a smarter fuel strategy comes in. With the right fuel card program, you can reduce cost-per-gallon, improve spend visibility, and encourage better fueling behaviors across your team. The AtoB fuel card is designed with all of this in mind—so you can stop reacting to market volatility and start gaining control over one of your largest variable expenses.

The Financial Impact of Fleet Fuel Discounts

Reduce Per-Gallon Rates at Scale

The AtoB fleet fuel card offers up to 25¢ off per gallon at participating locations through AtoB’s truck stop discount network. These aren’t consumer-level rebates or limited-time offers—they’re negotiated rates built specifically for commercial operations.

Whether you’re fueling up at RaceTrac, Chevron, TA truck stops, or other partners in our discount network, your drivers have access to discounts automatically—no coupon codes, loyalty apps, or extra steps required.

Over time, these savings compound. Multiply a 15–25¢ discount across dozens of vehicles, hundreds of fill-ups, and thousands of gallons—and the long-term cost reduction becomes measurable.

Improve Budgeting and Cost Control

Fleet fuel discounts don’t just lower your fuel bill—they also help you plan better. Fluctuating prices at the pump can make accurate forecasting nearly impossible without some kind of pricing baseline. With consistent discounts across AtoB’s fuel partners, fleet management is improved with cost predictability.

This helps stabilize cash flow, reduces variance in cost-per-mile, and supports more accurate quoting and margin planning—especially for fleets operating across multiple states or freight corridors.

How Our Fleet Fuel Card Helps You Save More

Automatic Discounts, No Extra Hassle

Fueling with AtoB means your drivers don’t have to change their habits. As long as they swipe the fleet card at a participating station, the discount applies—either directly at the pump or via rebate, depending on the merchant. This keeps things simple in the field and easy to scale across teams.

Our network includes thousands of fueling stations, so drivers don’t need to hunt for savings or veer off-route to access them.

Real-Time Visibility into Fuel Spend

With every transaction tracked in real time, you get instant insights into where drivers are fueling, how much they’re spending, and whether they’re sticking to approved locations. This isn’t just useful for fraud prevention—it’s a foundational layer for automated fleet reporting and saving costs on fleet administration.

You can set guardrails like maximum daily spending, fuel grade restrictions, or time-based limits. With our clean dashboard interface, your finance team doesn’t need to wait for monthly statements to address irregularities or optimize spending.

Transparent Pricing, No Hidden Fees

We’ve eliminated the fine print that often bogs down traditional fuel card programs. There are no setup fees, transaction fees, or late payment penalties. There is just one clear program cost—and the savings you unlock through smart fueling practices.

When your team knows exactly what to expect from their fuel card program, you can budget confidently and focus on optimizing—not untangling billing issues.

Strategies for Maximizing Fuel Discounts

Monitor Driver Behavior to Capture More Value

Discounts only go so far if fuel is being misused. That’s why real-time data matters. With AtoB’s platform, you can track patterns like:

  • Frequent off-network purchases
  • Overuse of premium grades where not required
  • Topping off unnecessarily or fueling in small increments
  • Filling up outside of route plans or schedules

Rather than penalizing drivers, this data gives managers the ability to coach drivers and course-correct early. Over time, it shapes a more cost-conscious team without the need for heavy-handed controls.

Reduce Fuel Waste Through Smarter Routing

While fuel cards control price, operations determine volume. Telematics data shows that idle time, inefficient dispatching, and deadhead mileage all increase fuel use—but many fleets don’t connect these dots directly to their fuel spend.

Pairing fuel card data with route performance insights allows managers to spot inefficiencies before they spike costs. Are certain routes consistently using more fuel? Are delivery windows too tight, leading to idling at stops? Identifying these friction points is often where the most untapped savings live.

Fuel Discounts That Drive Real Operational Savings

Fuel will always be a major cost center—but with the right tools, it doesn’t have to be a liability. Fleet fuel discounts help you pay less, plan better, and operate more efficiently.

Here’s what you can expect when you partner with AtoB:

  • Up to 25¢ off per gallon through our nationwide network
  • Real-time tracking and configurable spend controls
  • A transparent pricing model with no hidden fees
  • A platform built for operators—not just accountants
