Global vendors are investing heavily in the market to improve the overall fuel card offerings to decrease the risk of fraud, minimize form filling, and improve tracking and reporting. The Asia-Pacific fuel cards market is expected to register the highest CAGR in the near future. China, India, Japan, and Australia are expected to offer lucrative opportunities for market players. Moreover, increase in demand for mobile payments and need to monitor spending and fuel rebates drive this market in the region.
The global fuel cards market is analyzed across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and LAMEA. Rise in new payment methods is expected to help fuel card issuers to evolve from a card-driven environment to a customer-driven environment, thereby contributing to the growth of fuel cards in North America and Europe. However, LAMEA is expected to account less market share in the global market as compared to other regions, due to lack of awareness about the benefits and lack of internet connectivity in underdeveloped countries. Furthermore, Latin America and Middle East are expected to gain traction, but the fuel cards market growth is expected to be stable during the forecast period.

Top Impacting Factors
High Number of Internet Users and Rise in New Payment Methods
Rise in internet users has compelled customers to use plastic money instead of keeping hard cash. As stated by several banks, the new age segment has been one of the key factors enforcing sale transaction through fuel cards globally to eliminate manual tasks such as auditing and submission of receipts.
Prone to Fraudulent Attacks
Fuel cards have become the fastest growing payment method, owing to evolution in electronic payment. This advanced payment method is prone to hacking, as currently these cards do not have enough security measures that can prevent payment frauds. Such security breaches leading to data loss and confidentiality breach of crucial information are possible, since dozens of criminal hackers have started to exploit fuel card systems as well as back-office systems.
Change in Demographics Landscape
Fuel cards are utilized by fleet owners to manage and control fuel costs while providing better visibility of the operations. Fuel cards are being used as debit cards that allow drivers to pay for fuel, repairs, and maintenance. Earlier, fleet cards were used mostly by trucking companies; however, over the past few years, there has been a change in customer demographics. The change offers ample opportunities to fuel card providers to innovate their product offerings for each customer type.
Lack of IT infrastructure in the Underdeveloped Nations
Countries in Latin America, the Middle East, and Africa have not yet adopted technologically advanced hubs with rich IT infrastructure, which in turn is expected to hinder the global market growth in the near future.
Key Benefits for Stakeholders
The global fuel cards market is expected to reach $842,410 million by 2023, owing to growth in value-added services that enable fleet managers to minimize fraudulent claims and improve fuel management. Further, emerging trend of digitization and Internet of Things (IoT) drives the demand for fuel cards in developing regions. The global fuel cards market is expected to witness high growth rate during the forecast period, owing to increase in alliances and collaborations among various key vendors and users, especially in the developing countries. However, increased uptake in mobile payments and data breaches are expected to hinder fuel cards market growth.
Fuel cards provide various benefits to fleet vendors by capturing low-level data on mileage of vehicles, the gallons of fuel filled, and the need for servicing the vehicle. Fuel card service providers have started to embed the telematics interface and robust reporting facilities as standard product offerings to improve fleet management productivity. Moreover, there are various forms in which fuel cards are available, these include branded fuel cards, universal fuel cards, and merchant cards. The merchant fuel cards are anticipated to witness the highest growth rate during the forecast period.
In 2016, the fuel refill segment was the highest contributor in the global fuel cards market share, in terms of revenue, followed by the vehicle service segment. Furthermore, the others segment is anticipated to witness the highest growth rate, owing to rising demand for cashless fuel transactions.
Key players have adopted various strategies, such as new product launch, business expansion, acquisition, and strategic alliances, to create more awareness about fuel cards and increase adoption across the end users.
