The problem every driver knows
Every SA e-hailing driver has been there. A slow weekend, unexpected car costs, or a late payout — and suddenly you're sitting at home while other drivers are making money.
With e-hailing platform commissions squeezing margins harder than ever, one empty tank can cost you an entire day of income. Fuelo breaks the cycle permanently.
Why Fuelo is different
Your Fuelo Mastercard works at Sasol, Engen, BP, Shell, Caltex — every petrol station with a card machine. No partner agreements. No limitations. Just tap and fill.
Request any amount from R200 upwards. The Fuelo operator reviews your profile and approves in under 60 seconds. Card loads instantly on approval.
A dedicated Mastercard loaded to your phone. Tap it at any fuel station terminal — the same way you tap for groceries. No card to carry. No PIN to remember.
Your Fuelo card is locked to fuel station merchant codes. It physically cannot be used anywhere else — at restaurants, shops, ATMs. Your float is fuel credit, nothing else.
Every account is linked to a specific plate number and VIN. One vehicle, one account — no fake registrations, no fraud. Your credit history is tied to your real identity.
Refer a fellow driver using your unique code. Once they complete their first repayment, you both get R150 fuel credit loaded onto your cards. Automatically.
Simple. Fast. Done.
Sign up with your personal details, vehicle info, driver's licence (front & back), and link your Uber, Bolt or inDriver account.
Open Fuelo at any garage. Select the garage, enter the amount you need, and submit. Your full profile is sent to the operator for review.
The operator reviews your request and approves it — typically under a minute. Your virtual Mastercard is loaded instantly with the approved amount.
Tap your phone on the garage terminal. Fill up. Drive. Repay the following week via the app — your draw plus a small service fee.
Get up to R2,000 in fuel credit. Repay weekly from your earnings. No bank account needed. No credit checks.
One dashboard. Per-driver spend limits. Consolidated billing. Keep your fleet on the road — all from your phone.
Security & trust
Your account is permanently linked to your vehicle's plate number and VIN. One vehicle, one account — making fake registrations impossible.
Every driver submits front and back photos of their driver's licence during registration. Accounts are manually verified before any credit is issued.
Your Fuelo Mastercard is restricted to fuel station merchant codes only. It cannot physically be used at restaurants, shops, or ATMs.
Every card load expires automatically after 4 hours. If you don't fuel up, the load reverses and your credit is restored. No funds left floating.
Fuelo is a registered South African PTY Ltd with formal driver agreements, POPIA-compliant data handling, and real legal protection for both parties.
Every approval, card load, spend, and repayment triggers an instant push notification — so you always know exactly what's happening with your account.
