Fleet management made easy: How PACE simplifies the management of company vehicles
Challenges in fleet management
Managing a company fleet is usually only possible with a great deal of time and organisational effort. Smaller teams or growing companies in particular often lack specialised resources to efficiently manage fuel costs, drivers and vehicles, as many solutions only pay off once a company reaches a certain size. Manual processes, on the other hand, such as collecting and processing fuel receipts or monitoring expenses, tie up capacity and harbor a high potential for error. In addition, there are security risks associated with the use of physical fuel cards, such as loss, theft or potential fraud.
These challenges not only burden work processes, but can also impair the transparency and efficiency of the fleet. Modern, digital solutions promise to remedy this by automating and simplifying processes and making them more secure. Digital solutions such as PACE Drive Business can help fleet managers to overcome these challenges.
Digital solutions as the key to efficiency
PACE Drive Business for Android and iOS enables fleet management entirely via smartphone. The digital fleet card simplifies processes considerably and replaces cumbersome, manual procedures with intuitive, paperless solutions. Instead of physical fuel cards, billing takes place directly via the app. Drivers can make mobile payments at over 8,000 gas stations across Europe – without long waiting times or cumbersome PIN entries. This saves valuable time and ensures a smooth working day. PACE Drive Business offers a further advantage for small fleets in particular: users can clearly separate private and business journeys, which makes billing much easier and ensures maximum transparency.
A particular advantage is the centralised management of expenses and receipts. All transactions are recorded digitally and can be monitored in real time. Tax-compliant fuelling receipts are available for export at any time and reduce the workload in the accounting department. Fleet managers can keep track of all expenses, set individual payment limits and efficiently control refuelling costs. In addition, invited users who use a company payment method receive a digital delivery note, while the digital invoice is sent directly to the account holder.
In addition to efficiency, security also plays a key role. PACE Drive Business relies on modern technologies such as two-factor authentication and encrypted data transmission. This minimises risks such as skimming or phishing and ensures that only authorised persons have access to payment data.

With the digital fleet card from PACE, managing company cars is not only easier, but also future-proof. Especially for small teams or growing companies, the system offers a flexible and scalable solution that adapts seamlessly to individual requirements.

At the same time, the solution enables flexible use that grows with the requirements of the fleet – whether through the Team package for smaller fleets or the upcoming Fleet+ package for larger companies.
