Fleet payment processing firm Wright Express has signed an acceptance agreement that will enable its customers to use their Wright Express Fleet Card at all Imperial Oil Esso-branded locations throughout Canada.
The deal makes Imperial Oil the first Canadian fuel merchant to accept the Wright Express card. The agreement represents a significant win for Wright Express as Imperial Oil is a leading player in Canada’s petroleum industry. It is the country’s largest petroleum refiner, and has a leading market share in petroleum products, sold primarily under the Esso and Mobil brand names through a coast-to-coast supply network that includes nearly 2,000 retail outlets.
This agreement represents a significant step in our plan to meet the needs of fleet customers who need to purchase fuel in Canada and have access to detailed level III data, said Michael Dubyak, president and CEO of Wright Express. Esso is one of the largest and most popular fuel retailers in Canada.
