The Ultimate Solution in convenience on-road

Introduction to eFuel

The requirement for fleet operators to facilitate a secure method of payment to procure fuel has always been a challenge due to the risk of fraud and wastage.

This challenge is not unique to South Africa and fleets around the world have striven for a solution. The result has been the development of electronic vehicle tagging, whereby the vehicle is fitted with a small electronic microprocessor with smart card payment functionality and on-board vehicle monitoring capabilities, which enables the vehicle and not the driver to authorise and procure fuel while simultaneously ensuring that all required transaction information is accurately electronically generated.

What is eFuel?

eFuel is a card free system using technology that is regarded as the ultimate in fuel control convenience. It is the brand name used for the automated refuelling solution implemented using multiple oil company retail sites, the banking infrastructure and Fuelomat technology provided and supported by Gilbarco Veeder-Root. eFuel technology confirms that the right vehicle is being filled, with electronically captured odometer readings and no human input required.

How the eFuel solution works

• The pump will not switch on unless authorised by an eFuel installed vehicle.
• No cards issued or distributed.
• Automatic recording of odometer readings during refuelling.
• Automatic recording of transaction volume and value.
• Fuel type specific.
• No manual data input.
• Other transaction data automatically recorded:

  • Date and time of transaction
  • Type of fuel dispensed

  • Account details
