VIVO Energy Namibia on Thursday launched the Shell fuel card that would enhance the payment process for motorists.
The Shell fuel card is a smart technology fuel payment option that gives fleet owners control over their fuel spent.
The card was approved as a payment instrument by the Bank of Namibia in September 2017.
According to information provided by Vivo Namibia, the fuel card has smart technology with a chip and pin for security and control. The card has features to identify and tag the vehicle and the driver and can also be used for point of sales transactions as well as postpaid and prepaid services, amongst other benefits. Deputy minister of mines and energy Kornelia Shilunga officiated at the launch of the fuel card. Vivo Energy’s managing director, Johan Grobbelaar, said the company was the first to launch a fuel card, and that they were committed “to innovate and bring solutions to our customers”. “We are excited to announce that we are the first fuel company to launch a card that’s approved by the Bank of Namibia,” he reiterated.
Vivo Namibia markets and distributes Shell fuels and lubricants in Namibia.
