About WEX
The WEX Fleet Card is the most widely accepted fleet card in the United States, working at roughly 95 percent of fuel stations plus tens of thousands of service locations. Its strengths are universal acceptance, detailed purchase controls with driver IDs, automatic accounting data on every transaction, tax exemption reporting and access to the WEX EDGE savings network that also discounts tires, hotels and other business costs.
About Chevron and Texaco
The Chevron and Texaco fleet card trades headline discount size for immediacy and reach: full savings apply right away rather than after volume tiers, across a network of more than 8,000 stations, supported by the WEX network with an out-of-network card available. Controls can be set by driver or by card with real-time monitoring.
WEX and Chevron and Texaco pricing
WEX pricing is quote-driven, with independent reviews commonly reporting around $4 per card per month for the core Fleet Card. Rebates run 3 to 15 cents per gallon inside the WEX EDGE savings network and 1 to 3 cents elsewhere, with the top rates tied to fueling location and monthly volume; the truck-stop oriented Fleet Cross Roads card averages around 15 cents in-network. Chevron and Texaco offer up to 6 cents per gallon with the full rate available immediately rather than tiered on volume, an unusual structure among branded cards that benefits smaller fleets who never hit big-volume thresholds. The calculator applies each card's discount to your monthly gallons, subtracts card fees, and compares net savings and effective price per gallon at the current diesel price.
How they compare
WEX's core strength is acceptance breadth: its discounts are modest outside the EDGE network, but the card works nearly everywhere, so its savings are dependable rather than spectacular. The Chevron and Texaco card gives smaller fleets its full discount from day one instead of gating it behind volume, which offsets its modest headline rate. The honest comparison is a blended one: estimate what share of your gallons would actually earn each card's in-network rate on your real routes, set the discounts accordingly, and let the annual difference decide.
