Radius Velocity

Overview

Radius Velocity is a fuel-card portal for managing invoices, spending and card administration. It is best for UK businesses already using Radius fuel cards that want those tasks in one account. Its focused administration is useful, but it is not an option for fleets without a Radius customer account.

Key features

Weekly HMRC-compliant invoices and access to the previous 12 months’ records give account holders a practical way to review current charges and retrieve recent paperwork. Reports break down fuel spending by driver, vehicle type, station or card, with graph, table and map views and CSV downloads. That mix suits routine oversight and further analysis, though it is centered on fuel-card spending rather than general fleet finance.

Users can freeze a lost or stolen card online or in the app, report the incident, and cancel the card and order a replacement from their account. Those controls give account holders a direct response when a card goes missing. For fleets paired with geo-plus vehicle tracking, the system can also provide MPG data and flag potentially suspicious card transactions when a vehicle is absent; that added visibility depends on the tracking pairing.

The separate Velocity Vehicle Check app supports daily smartphone checks, instant defect reports, digital records, and MOT, tax and service reminders. It extends the offering to basic vehicle-check workflows, although it remains a distinct app alongside the fuel-card portal.

The fuel card account’s main contact receives full access initially, and additional employee access can be arranged at the account holder’s request. This provides a route to wider staff access, but access is tied to the account holder rather than open self-service sign-up. Support is available by phone at 0344 880 2468.

Pricing

Radius Velocity is free to UK customers, with the plan shown at 0.00 USD per free. There is no free trial because the product is already free; this is not a standalone free tier, since a Radius customer account is required and login access is set up when the fuel card account opens. For an eligible Radius customer, the price removes a separate portal charge for invoice, reporting and card tasks. Businesses that do not hold a Radius account cannot use it simply by choosing the free plan.

Platforms

Radius Velocity is available on web, Android and iOS. Card freezing is supported online and in the app, while the separate Vehicle Check app adds smartphone-based daily checks.

Who it's for

Choose Velocity if your business already has a Radius fuel card and wants invoices, fuel-spend reporting and card controls alongside it, particularly if you will use CSV exports or the geo-plus tracking connection. It is less suitable for businesses seeking a standalone fleet platform or those who need fuel oversight without a Radius customer relationship.

Pros and cons

• Pro: Free for UK Radius customers, bringing invoice history, fuel reports and card administration together without a separate portal price.
• Pro: Reports can be viewed in several formats and exported as CSV, giving both quick summaries and material for further analysis.
• Pro: Lost-card freezing, reporting, cancellation and replacement ordering are available through the account.
• Con: Eligibility requires a Radius customer account, so businesses outside that customer base cannot adopt it as an independent tool.
• Con: MPG information and vehicle-absence transaction alerts rely on pairing with geo-plus tracking.
• Con: The initial full-access role belongs to the fuel card account’s main contact; extra employee access must be set up at the account holder’s request.

Alternatives

For another fuel-management option, compare the Fuel Management Software category. Eurowag Fuel Management is a paid web, Android and iOS alternative; choose it if you want to request a quote rather than use Velocity’s free, Radius-account-dependent portal. Multi Service Fuel Card is another paid option across web and mobile, with a free plan; its Fuel Card account carries program maintenance fees of $0–$10 per month, fuel transaction fees of $0–$2 per transaction and money fees of 0%–3% of transaction amount, so weigh those charges against Velocity’s free access for Radius customers.

Track Star Fleet Fuel Management, link2pump and Fill-Rite FMS are paid alternatives available on web and mobile, with Track Star also supporting API access. Geotab is a paid option with no free plan and a broader platform footprint; its GO Plan includes fuel monitoring alongside safety, compliance and maintenance features. Consider AtoB Fleet Fuel Cards if a paid card with no spending limit beyond loaded funds suits your needs: AtoB Unlimited is $3.00 USD per month per active card, with a $35 account set-up fee, and supports fuel and non-fuel purchases. Coast offers paid cards and expense management at $4.00 USD per active user per month, plus a Bill Pay plan at $99.00 USD per month.

Verdict

Radius Velocity is a sensible choice for UK Radius fuel-card customers who want invoice access, useful spending breakdowns and lost-card controls without a separate portal charge. Its main limitation is also decisive: businesses need an existing Radius customer account, and the tracking-based vehicle insights require geo-plus. If either condition does not fit, compare paid alternatives instead.
