A new smartphone app, appropriately named ‘Refuel’, designed to have fuel delivered directly to the driver’s door, has recently been launched.
Drivers no longer need to fill up at a petrol station but can now have their cars topped up without leaving their desks. The price of the fuel is the same with a R20 service fee added. The company has partnered with several corporates and has extended its service to small business, fleet owners, and owners of generators that need topping up.
“The app was finalised just before lockdown but Covid-19 forced us to pivot from what was initially a consumer offering to one that has far stronger corporate focus, added to which we are now refuelling many fleets, bowsers and generators,” say the developers.
“The company is planning to add services such as tyre pressure and oil checks and may consider expanding the offering to residential users.”
