Fuel Express and Corpay are both fleet fuel programs, but Corpay is an umbrella: it markets its own Corpay One fuel cards on a 40,000-station discount network with Mastercard acceptance, and also owns the Comdata and Fuelman brands — yet it does not publish its fuel card fees or a per-gallon rebate figure. Fuel Express publishes its terms: 320,000+ fuel and maintenance locations, no startup, annual, or hidden fees, and Geotab and GPS Insight tracking.
Corpay, formerly FLEETCOR, is a payments company that markets Corpay One fuel cards directly and also owns the Comdata and Fuelman brands. Choosing “Corpay” can mean its Corpay One card or one of those brands.
What is Corpay?
Corpay, formerly FLEETCOR, is a large payments company. On corpay.com it markets its own Corpay One fuel and fleet cards — including Select Mixed Fleet and Diesel cards and a Universal Fuel Mastercard — on a network of 40,000+ Fuelman Discount Network stations plus broader Mastercard acceptance [Source: corpay.com]. It also owns the Comdata and Fuelman brands, and routes trucking fleets to Comdata. Corpay advertises “market-leading rebates” and strong controls — velocity and time-of-day limits, merchant controls, GPS-based transaction blocking, and Level III data [Source: corpay.com] — but it does not publish its fuel card fees or a specific per-gallon rebate figure on its own site.
How do Fuel Express and Corpay compare?
Corpay offers a broad product family with strong controls, but it does not publish its fuel card fees or a per-gallon rebate figure, and its discount network is 40,000 stations. Fuel Express publishes its terms: 320,000+ fuel and maintenance locations, no card fees, and GPS provided with the card.

How does Fuel Express compare?
Fuel Express publishes exactly what you get: acceptance at 320,000+ fuel and maintenance locations, no startup, annual, or hidden fees, and rebates quoted to your fleet in writing — no request-for-terms required to know the basics. Fuel Express also provides Geotab and GPS Insight rather than only integrating telematics. Because Corpay owns two brands we cover separately, see also Fuel Express vs Comdata and Fuel Express vs Fuelman, our comparison methodology, and the comparison hub.
