History

[edit]

2000–2005

[edit]

In 2000, Ron Clarke joined the company as CEO when the company's estimated annual revenues were $25 million.[4]

In 2002, Boston-based venture capitalist Summit Partners invested $45 million in FleetCor to expand and “[recruit] major regional and national convenience stores into the fleet program.”[5]

In 2003, Fleetcor merged with Commercial Fueling Network (CFN).[6] The following year, FleetCor acquired Mannatec Inc.[7] In March. In 2004, the company partnered with Citgo “to process Citgo Petroleum Corp.’s commercial fleet card, the CITGOFleet card.”[8] In 2005, Fleetcor began a relationship with BP, a contract that has since been extended several times.[9]

2006–2009

[edit]

Bain Capital invested $75 million in Fleetcor in 2006, thus giving the company the capital to expand its presence across Europe.[10] Fleetcor acquired United Kingdom company KeyFuels in 2006, processing over 500,000 business fleets.[11] Other European acquisitions from 2006 to 2009 included Abbey Fuelcards,[12] CSS,[13] ICP Smart Concepts,[14] Petrol Plus Region (the largest independent fuel card company in Russia), and The Fuelcard Company (a United Kingdom commercial fuel card reseller).[15]

Along with its European expansion, Fleetcor continued to grow its US presence. In 2007, Fleetcor won a long-term card processing contract by Chevron USA[16] but lost the contract to WEX in 2016.[17] With the addition of an investment of $46 million in equity from Advent in 2006 for European expansion,[18] Fleetcor launched British Petroleum (BP) Mastercard, a North American major oil co-branded fleet card, and introduced FleetCardsUsa.com, a fleet card web portal.[19]

In 2009, Fleetcor acquired Corporate Lodging Consultants, a provider of workforce travel savings and solutions for companies.[20] Fleetcor launched Global FleetNet, a global card processing platform,[21] and purchased Retail Decisions’ United Kingdom fleet card operations.[22]

2010–2013

[edit]

In 2010, Fleetcor went public, debuting a $335 million initial public offering.[23] That year, it renewed the British Petroleum (BP) United States fleet card contract and acquired Carnet, a Czech Republic provider of telematics solutions.[24]

Fleetcor won the $300 million Shell Europe/Asia fleet card processing contract (with Logical) in 2011[25] and acquired Mexico’s Efectivale (a fuel and food payments services company)[26] and acquired AllStar Business Solutions (fuel card provider in the UK market) for $304 million.[27]

Fleetcor continued its global expansion in 2012 by acquiring a leading fuel card systems company in Russia[28] and CTF, a fuel payment processing services provider in Brazil, for $180 million.[29]

2013–2017

[edit]

In 2013, Fleetcor acquired the following: Australia’s FleetCard,[30] New Zealand’s Cardlink,[31] VB Serviços (a provider of transportation cards and vouchers in Brazil),[32] DB Trans (also in Brazil),[33] Epyx (a SaaS system and a network of vehicle repair garages serving fleet operators in the UK),[34] and NexTraq, a US-based provider of telematics solutions.[35] Fleetcor also signed three deals in 2013, with GE Custom Fleet in Australia,[36] Good Card, a leading Brazilian fuel card network operator, and Husky Oil Limited.[37]

In 2014, the company established minority investment in Masternaut, a European-based provider of telematics solutions,[38] signed definitive documents to acquire Shell's SME portfolio in select European markets,[39] and acquired Pacific Pride (a cardlock fueling network operating in the US and Canada)[40] and Comdata (a business-to-business provider of innovative electronic payment solutions) for $3.45 billion.[41] BP awarded Fleetcor a long-term contract in 2015.[42]

Fleetcor acquired Travelcard (universal fuel card issuer in the Netherlands)[43] and Sem Parar (electronic toll payments company in Brazil) in 2016,[44] and Fleetcor signed an agreement to manage the commercial fuel card program for Speedway LLC (Speedway) the same year.[45]

Fleetcor joined the Fortune 1000 in 2017,[46] and expanded to Italy with minority investment in Qui! Group, an Italian-based provider of food voucher and card solutions.[47] Cambridge Global Payments, a B2B international payments provider,[48] and Creative Lodging Solutions, a leading lodging provider to businesses, were added to Fleetcor's acquisitions as well.[49]

2018–present

[edit]

Named by Forbes as a Global 2000 Growth Champion[50] and one of the World's Most Innovative Companies,[51] Fleetcor joined the S&P 500 in 2018.[52] Fleetcor made a minority investment in P97 Networks, Inc., a cloud-based mobile commerce solutions company, the same year.[53]

In 2019, Fleetcor led three major acquisitions: Nvoicepay (an Account Payables automation for businesses company), Sole Financial (a payroll card provider), and Travelliance (airline lodging programs).[54] In November 2019, Fleetcor officially opened a new corporate office in the Terminus 100 office.[55] In August 2022, Fleetcor acquired Accrualify, an accounts payable software firm.[56] In August 2023, Fleetcor sold its business in Russia and exited the market.[57] In March 2024, the company changed its name to Corpay.

In May 2024, Corpay acquired Paymerang, a Richmond, Virginia headquartered accounts payable automation company for $475 million.[58]
