Multi Service Fuel Card (Overland Park, KS) has been the trusted diesel fuel card for trucking companies since 1978, when it pioneered the first real-time authorization fuel card for the trucking industry. Now operating as a wholly-owned, non-integrated subsidiary of Shell USA (acquired November 2021), Multi Service combines 45+ years of trucking-exclusive expertise with institutional backing from one of the world's largest energy companies. The card is accepted at 8,900+ truck stops across the US and Canada—including TA/Petro, Pilot/Flying J, Love's, and regional independents—as well as CNG, LNG, and EV charging sites. Key innovations include One-Time PIN fraud protection (a unique time-sensitive code per transaction that renders skimmed card data useless) and pre-purchase authorization requiring VIN and hubodometer readings. Zero transaction fees, zero maintenance fees, generous credit lines for both new and established motor carrier authorities.
