How to pay your AmpolCard

- a nominated credit card
Your AmpolCard payment will be debited on a monthly basis from your nominated account. The AmpolCard also offers up to 14 days interest-free on new transactions.
Note: credit card transactions attract a service fee, which will be charged on your next month’s statement/invoice. The current surcharge rates are:
- Visa – 0.53%
- MasterCard – 0%*
- Amex – 2.1%
* Applicable for AmpolCard customers that consume 10 million litres of fuel or less in a 12 month rolling period and setup direct debiting from their MasterCard, otherwise the non-direct debit fees from MasterCard is 0.73%.
Ampol has a great fuel card offering here which begins with fixed price fuel discounts of 2/cl off regular fuels, 3c/l off Amplify Premium diesel, and 4c/l off premium Amplify 98 fuels. While their $2.95/m per card fee structure isn’t the cheapest when compared to other fuel cards, it is very easy to understand and calculate. Extras like servicing or roadside assist is nice, but it is an optional extra you must pay for:
- $2.00/m per vehicle to enable Services & Repairs
- $5.25/m per vehicle to enable Roadside Assistance
- Commercial Roadside Assistance, $9.95 per month per vehicle
AmpolCard also offers an greater fuel discounts through the National Truck Network (NTN). The Ampol National Truck Network (NTN) has dedicated truck sites in Australia specifically designed to deliver tangible fuel savings, drive down your operating costs and improve fleet efficiency.
Ampol also has simpler non-business/personal fuel gift card called AmpolCash. AmpolCash is simply a prepaid gift card – there are no fuel benefits.
Getting the most out of the AmpolCard
To get the most out of the card your business should already use Ampol stations regularly and have comparable services like Roadside Assist, which you could consolidate. Discounts from vehicle servicing and repairs may also offset the additional monthly charges, but these discounts don’t apply on top of other special promotions (e.g. buy 3 tyres, get 1 free).
AmpolCard Fuel Card options
AmpolCard only offers one card type. However, there are a range of card management options to track and personalise each individual card to the user’s needs. This includes purchase restrictions, PIN security, online transaction tracking and management and the ability to link to Xero and MYOB accounting software.
