Love’s Travel Stops is partnering with Relay Payments, a payment company for the trucking and logistics industries, broadening its fraud-free digital payment network. 

  • Love's Travel Stops & Country Stores is No. 16 on CSP’s 2024 Top 202 ranking of U.S. convenience-store chains by store count.

When using Relay for fuel payments, carriers and drivers can benefit from its:

  • Nationwide payment network that protects companies from fraud.
  • Suite of over-the-road digital payments for fuel, scales and lumpers (third-party unloaders) that increases hours of service.
  • 24/7, U.S.-based customer service team that answers the phone in under 30 seconds.

Since launching its fuel payments solution in 2023, Relay is now used by more than 400,000 drivers and 100,000 carriers for over-the-road payments, including fuel, scales, cash advances and lumpers. 

Adding Love’s Travel Stops to its network, alongside Pilot, Maverik, Yesway, AMBEST, Onvo and more, marks a significant step toward modernizing over-the-road payments for the trucking industry, according to Relay.

“Relay’s acceptance at leading fueling stops speaks to the rapid adoption of our solutions and the industry’s need for a comprehensive and secure digital payment network,” said Relay CEO Ryan Droege. “Our mission is to build an end-to-end digital payments network designed specifically for the trucking and logistics industry, helping fleets and drivers keep more of their earnings and reduce frustrations.”

Love's operates 649 travel centers and convenience stores in 42 states.

Marc Lore's food startup is combining c-stores, restaurants, meal kits and delivery into a single "mealtime platform." Can it be greater than the sum of its parts?
