AA Smartfuel – Driving NZ Small Business
AA Smartfuel wins Canstar Blue’s award for Most Satisfied Customers | Small Business Fuel Cards
Small business is the driving force of NZ’s economy. And the driving force behind small business transport is petrol and diesel!
Whether you’re a sole trader with one set of wheels, or part of a small business with a number of vehicles, if you need to travel for your work, fuel is a major expense.
While there’s not a lot of choice when it comes to fuel options, there’s plenty of choice between different fuel card operators.
So as part of our mission to inform consumers of the best NZ has to offer, Canstar Blue canvassed the opinions of 264 New Zealanders who had used a fuel card for business purposes in the past 12 months, across a range of categories, to measure and track their satisfaction.
To decide which fuel card provider offers the best level of customer satisfaction, each was rated across the following categories:
- Account Management
- Customer Service
- Fees and Charges
- Fuel Discounts
- Number of Petrol Stations Available
Coming out on top is AA Smartfuel. The popular fuel card choice was the only card provider in our survey to earn a 5 Star Overall Satisfaction rating. While its nearest competitor, Z Card, won only two 5 Star awards (for Customer Service and Number of Stations), AA Smartfuel earned the top rating in all but one category.
What Customers Want
Unlike the results of many of our other Satisfaction Awards, cost is king when it comes to Fuel Cards. The two top drivers of satisfaction for those in our survey were: Fuel Discounts (28%) and Fees and Charges (24%). Overall, the main drivers of satisfaction:
