We’re thrilled to announce the brand new Member Fuel Discount Card!
It’s available to:
–DriverProtect Members
–BTST Members (if you received an email invite to this page then you are a BTST Member)
–TALEX Users
Currently the Member Fuel Discount Card is for Diesel only but we are looking in to negotiating a Petrol one in the future.
There are 2 options for Members:
The first is 100% free and always will be.
The second option has a small cost but increases the discount to 3p/litre.
How it Works:
You can chose from 5 cards, depending on which brand/s of fuel you want the discount on: BP, Shell, Esso, Texaco, UK Fuels garages (such as Moto, Welcome Break, Murco, MFG, Co-Op & Applegreen).
• A full list of garages that offer the discount can be found here
You will be directed to set up a Direct Debit with our Fuel Card Partner, UK Fuels. You will never be charged any fees by them. You’ll only ever be billed for the fuel you buy (less the discount), the week after you buy it.
Simply pay for your fuel on your card and UK Fuels will take the payment from your bank the following week for the cost of the fuel, minus the discount and without any fees as negotiated on behalf of Members.

Choose your Option Below:
Option #1 (free):
Save: 2.5p/litre
Completely Free to Members
This card is usually £18/year to the public and businesses for each user, but we’ve negotiated that for Members there will be no charge ever.
Option #2 (premium):
Save: 3p/litre
We decided to give 2 options to Members for this card:
a) £3/month (no contract, downgrade to free card at any time)
…or >
b) £30 one-off fee (no contract, monthly fee or any future fees)
This is for Members who don’t like having a monthly fee.
It’s a one-off lifetime fee for the card.
We’ve worked hard on this for Members and I’m happy that we’ve been able to pull it off!
All the best,
Adam
Terms of Member Fuel Card Offer:
(don’t worry, nothing nasty 🙂
Diesel Only (currently):
The Member Fuel Card is currently for Diesel Fuel Only. We are hoping to launch a Petrol version in coming months.
Can I get a card for a family member?:
So long as you are happy to pay for their fuel, yes! Alternatively we are happy for family members of BTST Members to apply for a card — just send them the link to this page.
We may change Fuel Card Partners from time to time:
We have contracted on behalf of DriveProtect Members, BTST Members, and TALEX Users to negotiate, and get the best deal possible with one of the most well-established Fuel Card providers in the UK.
We may choose to switch providers from time to time if, for example, they are in breach of contract, or stop offering Members a good service.
Members are of course free to stick with their original fuel card, or switch to any new card we may create that may offer Members a better deal;
Saving Amount Per Litre:
The savings shown above are the current savings negotiated on Diesel fuel with the Fuel Card Partner we have contracted with (UK Fuels) on behalf of Members.
We can’t directly control the discount offered over time if, for example, the fuel companies or the fuel card provider changes the discount offered to Members.
If this should happen then we will endeavour to either apply pressure for them to increase the discount to (at least) 2.5p / 3p per litre, or seek another fuel card provider who may be able to offer a better deal;
Service Level from our Fuel Card Partner:
If you feel our Fuel Card Partner ever gives you a poor service, or if they ask you for money, please tell us immediately so that we can remind them that you are a Member and should not be charged any fees.
Under the terms of our negotiated contract, Members should never have to pay the provider any fees whatsoever.
Inflation:
If you opt for the £3/month option, we may have to increase the monthly amount from time to time in times of high inflation. We guarantee not to do this for at least 1 year. If we ever do increase the cost we will inform you before doing this, and you are free to cancel and downgrade to the free version of the card at any time by cancelling your Direct Debit.
We do not plan to increase the cost, however, and in a deflationary environment, we would look to reduce the monthly cost, in which case we may not notify you for obvious reasons (i.e. you will be saving money).
That’s all. Enjoy your fuel savings!
