WEX Motorpass

Note:

WEX Motorpass is designed for businesses that want maximum network coverage rather than being tied to a single fuel brand. It consolidates fuel, vehicle expenses and partner discounts into ATO‑compliant statements, with flexible credit terms and detailed transaction data for each card.

Who is WEX Motorpass best for?

WEX Motorpass suits businesses that value coverage and control over brand loyalty.​

• Fleets that travel widely (interstate, regional and remote) and can’t rely on a single brand.
• Businesses with mixed vehicles and drivers (trades, sales, transport) that want tight spend controls and detailed reporting.
• Organisations looking to tap partner discounts on tyres, servicing, accommodation and more as part of their fuel card setup.​

Small, metro‑only fleets that mostly use one brand may find a brand‑specific card with stronger discounts better value.​

Where can you use WEX Motorpass?

• Fuel: over 6,000–6,500 service stations and truck stops, including major brands (BP, Caltex, Shell, 7‑Eleven, United, Metro, Puma and many independents).​
• Non‑fuel: 5,400+ non‑fuel merchants (approx), including car washes, tyre retailers, service centres, hotels, parking and taxis.​

You can use the WEX Motorpass Driver app or online locator to find nearby fuel and non‑fuel locations and, in many cases, see real‑time fuel prices.​

Savings, discounts and partner offers

Motorpass typically offers a small base discount plus bigger savings via partners and associations.​

• Base fuel discount: usually around 1c per litre off, sometimes structured via partner programs or association deals.​
• Association offers: trade and member organisations (NRMA, MPAQ, Clipsal, others) often get better discounts (e.g. 2–4c per litre at specific brands, or 1% off all purchases), plus reduced card fees.​
• Partner discounts: ongoing savings at non‑fuel merchants (tyres, servicing, accommodation, parking, Cabcharge, etc.).​

Fees and charges

Motorpass is powerful but not the cheapest card on the market.​

• Monthly card/management fees: tiered per‑card fee that generally drops as you add more cards (small fleets pay more per card than large fleets).​
• Transaction fees: a per‑transaction fee applies, and there may be brand‑specific surcharges at certain outlets (e.g. extra percentage at selected chains).​
• Payment surcharges: additional percentage fees on BPAY and card payments (Visa, Mastercard, Amex).
• Other charges: annual activity reports, paper statements, replacement cards and late‑payment fees all have set prices.

Security and controls

WEX Motorpass is built for tight control and security.​

• Card‑level rules: control by product (fuel‑only, fuel + oil, all vehicle expenses), spend limits, time‑of‑day and more.​
• Fraud reduction: email alerts and anomaly triggers based on transaction behaviour help you spot misuse quickly.​
• Detailed data: Level III data (litres, odometer, vehicle details) improves auditability and helps detect abnormal consumption.​

Add‑ons and extras

Motorpass can function as a broader fleet expense platform.​

• Roadside assistance: optional 24/7 roadside cover at a per‑vehicle fee, including towing and basic breakdown help.​
• Partner deals: discounted tyres, batteries, servicing, car wash, accommodation, parking and taxi/ride services with well‑known brands (e.g. Bridgestone, Beaurepaires, Bob Jane, Best Western, Secure Parking, Cabcharge).​
• Prepaid alternative: Motorpass Pay2Go prepaid card for businesses that prefer to pre‑load funds instead of using a credit facility.​

These extras add value if used regularly, but also increase effective cost, so they are best suited to fleets that will actually use them.

How to apply for WEX Motorpass

You apply online via WEX Motorpass or through partner/association sign‑up pages.​

• Requirements: ABN, business details, trading history and estimated monthly fuel spend; credit assessment determines limits.​
• Setup: choose number of cards, select card controls and add extras such as roadside; association members can apply via their member page to unlock better deals.

WEX Motorpass FAQs

How does WEX Motorpass save my business money?
You get modest base discounts plus access to partner and association deals, and you can cut admin by having fuel and on‑road costs on one, GST‑compliant statement.​

Are WEX Motorpass fees high?
Fees are higher than some brand‑specific cards, with monthly card/management fees, per‑transaction charges and payment surcharges, so it suits fleets that really use the big network and controls.​

Is WEX Motorpass good for small businesses?
It can be, especially for tradies and small fleets that drive widely and need flexibility; metro‑only or single‑brand users may get better value from a cheaper, brand‑specific card.​

Is there an app for drivers?
Yes. The WEX Motorpass Driver app helps drivers find accepting locations, check details and, in some cases, see live fuel prices.​

What happens if a card is lost or stolen?
You can suspend or cancel cards through the online portal or by contacting WEX, and get replacements issued under your existing account.​
