Vortex Fuel Card — NFC fuel cards + complete station management.Explore →
Vortex Fuel Card turns fuel into a controlled, auditable product — and runs the entire station around it. Your customers tap an unclonable NFC smart card at the pump, enter their PIN, and drive off with an itemized SMS e-receipt in hand — while tanks, pumps, fuel deliveries, shifts and the end-of-day all live in the same back office. Every litre in the ground, through the nozzle and in the drawer, reconciled. Prepaid cards topped up by M-Pesa, or postpaid credit accounts for corporate fleets: fuel finally works like money in a bank.
Every rule, every limit and every litre — set centrally, enforced at the pump, visible in the back office.
Each card carries a secure NFC smart chip — practically impossible to duplicate, resistant to electromagnetic interference and everyday wear. The plastic in your customer's wallet is as trustworthy as the cash it replaces.
Dual-PIN authorization — a card PIN and a cardholder PIN — with optional one-time SMS codes for high-value fuelings. Wrong-PIN attempt limits and automatic lock-outs shut down guessing games before they start.
Restrict a card to diesel only, or lubricants, or any product set you choose. Cap litres per transaction, per day or per week; limit transaction counts; even define which days and hours a card may fuel. Company fuel stops leaking on weekends.
Prepaid cards load by M-Pesa, cash or cheque with remote top-ups in seconds. Corporate fleets run on postpaid credit accounts with statements emailed monthly and debtor ageing tracked to the day.
NFC tap-and-go at the pump, itemized billing per product, and an instant SMS e-receipt to the cardholder's phone. No paper to lose, no dispute without a record.
Station-wide analytics, full transaction histories and audit trails, fleet consumption reports per vehicle and per driver, and debtor ageing for credit accounts — live, from anywhere.
Vortex Fuel Card is a complete fuel-station management platform. Tanks, pumps, deliveries, attendants and the end-of-day live in the same system as the cards — so the litres in the ground, the litres through the nozzle and the shillings in the drawer finally agree with each other, every single night.
A fuel card is the strongest loyalty programme a station can run — your brand rides in every customer's wallet, printed full-colour on both sides of the card. Built-in points, discounts and bonuses reward the customers who keep coming back, and prepaid balances mean the next fill-up is already yours.
Fleet fuel is where budgets go to die: siphoning, top-up favours, receipts that never match the tank. Vortex Fuel Card closes the gap — each vehicle's card carries its own limits, every fueling reports in real time, and month-end is a statement, not an argument.
Purpose-built Android terminals rated IP67 against dust, rain and fuel-splash, with all-day batteries and bright 6-inch screens — built for the forecourt, not the boardroom.
Terminals connect over WiFi or mobile data and keep the queue moving — transactions confirm in seconds, receipts go out by SMS.
Attendants tap, the system decides. PINs, limits and product rules are enforced by the platform — there is nothing at the pump to argue with or override.
A phased rollout, run by the team that builds the platform.
Your card artwork goes to print — full-colour, double-sided, your brand — while we configure stations, products, pricing and card rules in the back office.
Terminals installed, staff trained, a first batch of cards issued. We run a live pilot at one station and tune the rules on real traffic.
Station by station, the network comes online — with a dedicated account manager, 24/7 helpdesk and on-site support as you scale.
Bring your station count and your card volumes — we'll walk you through the platform live, from a tap at the pump to the month-end statement, and design your first card with you.
