The payment solutions segment represents the largest part of our business and it includes secure means of energy payments through pre- or post-paid fuel cards and toll payments. This is usually the first introduction our customers have to our services.
As of the first half of 2024, we serve approximately 102,667 active payment solutions trucks and process approximately 22.4 million payment solutions transactions.
We also offer mobile payments or alternative authorisation methods, such as bring your own device.
In addition to our closed-loop payment means (fuel cards), we also encourage customers to use our open-loop Eurowag Mastercard card. This allows us to provide liquidity solutions tailor-made for each customer.
We resell traditional and alternative fuel across Europe through our Eurowag fuel card, which also allows our customers to pay for tolls and roadside services. In the first half of 2024, we had a total of around 13,900 stations across 23 European countries. As we continue to focus on supporting our customers in the transition to alternative fuels, in the first half of 2024 we had approximately 1,500 alternative fuel stations in our network.
Similar to our energy payment solutions, our toll solution offers our customers the option to pre- or post-pay on European toll road networks. Through our enhanced vehicle assistant (“EVA”) on-board unit (“OBU”), our customers can use one device to navigate EETS, while at the same time taking advantage of our other integrated services, such as fleet management and fraud prevention.
We have EETS licences in Germany, Belgium, Austria, Poland, Czech Republic, Hungary, Spain, Portugal, Slovakia, and bridges in Sweden and Denmark. We can provide tolling services in 23 countries and five major tunnels across Europe, and co-operate with 80 partners.
Case study
Creating efficiencies for our customers
Traditionally, fuel has been the main product that brings customers into our ecosystem. Once they sign up, we can analyse their behaviour and suggest other products that are relevant to them, either related to smart routing, toll or tax refund services. Once the customer starts using multiple products, we can create a customer value proposition that allows them to see the benefit of having all their services connected.
