One Step GPS × Coast: Fleet Fuel Card Integration

Aug 6, 20263m
What fleet manager hasn't wondered at a cross-town fuel purchase, a larger-than-tank fill-up, or a pump visit on a day the vehicle was supposed to be off duty?
CUI Telecommunications, a One Step GPS customer with 200+ active vehicles, found themselves asking that question often enough to act on it. After integrating Coast with their existing One Step GPS tracking, they uncovered $22,000 in monthly fuel savings.
"The biggest control that we found that helps us is the integration with One Step GPS," said CUI's Ed Keeley. "We get those notifications if the vehicle is not actually at the gas station at the time it's being fueled. This was huge for us."
The fraud risk had always been there — Keeley put it plainly:"There was a lot of potential for [fuel card] abuse out there that became virtually impossible."What changed wasn't the risk. It was visibility.

Fuel Management Now Lives Inside One Step GPS

Coast — the fuel and expense card CUI and other One Step GPS fleets use to manage fuel spend — is now embedded as a native screen inside One Step GPS, accessible from the left navigation bar just like any other module.
There's no separate login, no second app to check, no tab to toggle. Card management, spend controls, and transaction history sit directly inside the platform fleets already use to run daily operations.

What You Can Now Do Inside One Step GPS

  • Set spend rules by driver or vehicle — fuel type, purchase frequency, spend caps — and extend controls to non-fuel categories like maintenance and tolls.
  • Catch a bad charge before it clears. Every fuel purchase is checked against the vehicle's real-time location; a card used away from its assigned vehicle can be flagged and declined on the spot.
  • See where the money's going. Purchase history, flagged transactions, and cost outliers by station and vehicle — pulled up without opening anything else.

Who Benefits Most

This integration is especially useful for:
  • Finance and back-office teams who need clean, reconcilable fuel and expense data without pulling reports from two separate systems.
  • Fleet and operations managers overseeing high fuel-cost operations — construction, field service, delivery — who want spend visibility alongside the vehicle data they already check daily.
  • Growing fleets adding vehicles and drivers regularly, who want card assignment and spend controls that scale without manual bridging between systems.
