Help stop fuel fraud before it happens

Powered by telematics, SecureFuel® verifies a vehicle’s location when a fuel purchase is attempted. If the vehicle and purchase location don’t match, suspicious transactions can be flagged or declined, helping you move from monitoring questionable activity after the fact to taking action at the point of purchase.

Move from fuel monitoring to proactive fuel control

Traditional monitoring can leave fleet managers reviewing suspicious activity after a purchase has already occurred. SecureFuel brings telematics information into the authorization process, helping stop fraud and misuse before a suspicious purchase is completed. 

Smarter protection at the point of purchase

Connect

Link your Shell Card account with a compatible telematics provider through the online portal. SecureFuel is only available with vehicle cards, driver cards are not eligible.

Fuel

Drivers use their vehicle-assigned Shell Cards as normal while SecureFuel operates in the background. 

Protect

SecureFuel cross-references vehicle location when a purchase is attempted, allowing suspicious transactions to be flagged or declined.

Decline suspicious transactions with Securefuel

When a driver uses the Shell Card, SecureFuel checks whether the assigned vehicle is actually at the gas station where the card is being used. If the location of the vehicle and the card don't match, the purchase is identified as suspicious and can be automatically declined based on your fleet's settings.

More control. Without more complexity.

Real-time transaction control

Vehicle location is checked as part of the purchase authorization process, helping identify suspicious activity before a purchase is completed.

No changes for drivers

Drivers continue using their Shell Cards as normal. There are no additional fueling steps or new SecureFuel training requirements for drivers. 

Less manual reconciliation

Transactions automatically sync to the portal, helping reduce the need to manually reconcile fuel purchases.

No extra cost

SecureFuel is a free feature with the Shell Card and does not require a new card or vendor. A compatible telematics provider is required.

Flexible Controls

Put your fleet in control

SecureFuel doesn't have to be one-size-fits-all. Fleets can begin by allowing and flagging location mismatches with real-time alerts, then transition to automatic declines based on their needs. This helps fleets introduce more proactive fuel controls while maintaining visibility into transaction activity.
