The existing fleet fuel card network systems can also charge fees equal to a truck stop’s annual net profit, Smith noted.
Commenting on the development, Twilio general manager of voice and video Jesper Joergensen said: “We are inspired every day by the innovative ways companies use Twilio’s cloud communications platform to build great experiences for their customers.
“Gas Pos is a great example of this, and we look forward to powering their newest virtual payment solution.”
