The Cruise Americard cards tie into Boyett's retail branding at its Cruiser convenience stores and allows automotive fleet customers to use the cards at any of the 230,000 Voyager fuel [image-nocss] and maintenance acceptance locations throughout the United States. The Cruise Americard fleet cards will also be accepted at all of Boyett Petroleum's cardlock locations.
"Boyett Petroleum is excited about the opportunity to offer our fleet customers a more comprehensive fuel management system. We look forward to growing the Cruise Americard through our new Voyager Channel Partnership," said Dale Boyett, president of Boyett Petroleum.
The Voyager Channel Partner Program allows participants to generate revenue based on monthly fuel volume purchased with the co-branded Voyager fleet card at domestic and remote locations. Additionally, channel partners also generate revenue based on nonfuel-related charges made by cardholders, including maintenance, roadside assistance, fleet driver training and more.
"U.S. Bank has seen strong growth this year in this program, and we are pleased to add Boyett Petroleum, a leading petroleum distributor/retailer, to our list of channel partners," said Jeffrey A. Rankin, senior sales and marketing officer for U.S. Bank Corporate Payment Systems, Houston. "U.S. Bank remains firmly committed to our Voyager Channel Partner Program and is excited about the positive response we have been getting from the jobber market about this opportunity."
