Commercial Fueling Network

What Commercial Fueling Network does

Commercial Fueling Network (CFN) is a Seattle-headquartered, B2B fleet fuel card network that operates as a subsidiary of Corpay, Inc. Founded in 1988 and employing 11–50 people, CFN issues the FleetWide card accepted at 55,000–65,000+ US and Canadian fueling locations spanning cardlock facilities, retail stations, and truck stops including Pilot Flying J. The network serves commercial fleet operators, individual commercial drivers, and accepting fuel sites, with millions of cardholders transacting across the platform.

The company's core technology layer comprises a cardlock authorization system using high-coercivity magnetic stripe cards encoded in CFN's proprietary format, the WebNCC secure web-based console for 24/7 account management, and integrations with leading fuel-site equipment stacks including Gilbarco Veederoot Gasboy, OPW/PetroVend, Centego (Excentus), Sierra National, FuelMaster, and eFueling. The FleetWide program layers driver-level controls — personalized profiles, per-day transaction and gallon limits, time-of-day and day-of-week fueling windows, product restrictions at cardlock sites, floating driver ID, e-receipts with email verification, and exception reporting — onto the card-acceptance network and is backed by a single consolidated invoice for enterprise fleet managers. CFN also offers the CFN Mobile Fueling Network for on-site fuel delivery to fleet vehicles.

CFN generates revenue through a combination of per-transaction fees on fleet card activity and recurring subscription-style charges for fleet management tooling (driver profiling, custom reporting, 24/7 account management). GTM is a hybrid enterprise field-sales motion targeting commercial fleet operators alongside a more transactional cardholder-membership path for smaller fleets, with pricing held confidential and configured per account. As a subsidiary of Corpay, a global business payments company, CFN also leverages parent infrastructure and the broader FleetWide program for extended network reach.

Direct peers

• WEX Inc. WEX is the largest dedicated fleet fuel card and payments provider in North America, offering fleet cards, telematics, and EV charging solutions. It is the most direct competitor to CFN's FleetWide product, serving commercial fleet operators with overlapping network coverage.
• Comdata (Fleetcor): Comdata, a Fleetcor subsidiary, is a major fleet fuel card, over-the-road payments, and settlement platform. It competes head-to-head with CFN on cardlock and truck stop acceptance for commercial trucking and enterprise fleets.
• Fuelman: Fuelman is a sister brand under Corpay targeting small and mid-sized commercial fleets with fuel card and reporting services. It overlaps directly with CFN's smaller-fleet cardholder segment and shares the Corpay distribution channel.
• Pacific Pride (Mansfield Energy Corp): Pacific Pride is an independent commercial cardlock network owned by Mansfield Energy, serving fleets with on-site cardlock fueling and proprietary cards. It directly competes with CFN's cardlock acceptance footprint for local fleet customers.

Broad incumbents

• Voyager Fleet (U.S. Bank): Voyager Fleet, part of U.S. Bank, is a large universal-fleet card program widely accepted at truck stops and fuel retailers. It is a broader incumbent offering fleet card services alongside U.S. Bank's wider commercial banking portfolio, overlapping with CFN's FleetWide acceptance.

Emerging players

• Fleetio: Fleetio is a cloud-based fleet management platform that has expanded into fuel card issuance and integration with major fuel networks. It represents the digital-native, software-led evolution of fleet card management that competes with CFN's WebNCC console on the reporting and controls layer.
• AtoB: AtoB is a fintech fleet payments platform offering fuel cards, expense management, and corporate cards for trucking and logistics companies. It is an emerging direct competitor challenging legacy fleet card providers on technology and pricing.
• Coast (Coast Financial): Coast is a fleet fuel card and expense platform targeting small and mid-sized businesses with a modern mobile experience. It is comparable as a digital-first challenger addressing the same fleet customers CFN's cardholder program serves.

Regional players

• Pilot Flying J: Pilot Flying J is the largest truck stop network in North America and a critical channel partner for CFN's FleetWide card acceptance. It is comparable as a distribution and retail-fuel channel through which commercial fueling volume flows, rather than as a card-issuing competitor.
• Love's Travel Stops: Love's Travel Stops & Country Stores operates a major truck stop network with commercial fueling lanes that accept major fleet cards. It is comparable to the Pilot Flying J partnership within CFN's distribution footprint rather than a direct card-issuing peer.
