The core technology stack centers on an integrated digital ecosystem: My Arval (web portal for fleet managers), My Arval Mobile (driver-facing mobile app), Arval Connect (telematics platform with mileage, fuel/energy, CO2, and DTC monitoring), My Fleet Status and My Fleet Trends (KPI and historical reporting dashboards). Adjacent product lines include Arval FLEX (flexible-return leasing), leaseback financing, used-vehicle sales via Arvalauto.cz, the MotorTrade B2B dealer marketplace (18,000+ transactions per month), and an electromobility suite (charging infrastructure installation, Arval Charging Card accepted across ČEZ, PRE, E.ON, plus the SMaRT methodology and Arval STAR consulting framework for fleet electrification).

Revenue is generated primarily through recurring monthly subscription payments on operational leasing contracts, supplemented by one-time used-vehicle sales, leaseback transaction fees, and managed charging infrastructure services. Distribution combines direct enterprise sales (including an International Business Office for multinationals), inside sales for SME/entrepreneur accounts, a business-partner referral network, and the MotorTrade dealer channel. The company is ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certified, GDPR-compliant, and operates under Czech credit bureau registration (NRKI/CNCB).
