NASHVILLE, Tenn., June 3 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Starting July 1, long-
haul fleet operators can watch fuel and maintenance card transaction fees
disappear in their rear-view mirrors.  Drivers that use Fleet One's Over the
Road card will purchase fuel and maintenance at well over 2,500 "Plus Network"
locations across the nation with no fuel transaction fees.
    Typically, transaction fees are charged to the fleet every time they
purchase fuel.  By teaming with a large nationwide base of quality truck stop
and travel center merchants, the new "Plus Network" will now be able to
provide Fleet One's mutual fleet customers the ability to use the Over The
Road card for fuel and maintenance with a "no fee guarantee."
    "Given the high volume of purchases by long-haul truckers, this benefit
will translate into considerable savings for fleets that use Over The Road
cards," said Fleet One President and Chief Executive Officer Andy Roberts.  "A
trucking fleet saving a dollar or more every time one of its drivers uses his
or her card improves the business cash flow significantly and also allows our
merchant partners the opportunity to provide additional products and services
to these important customers."
    To date, the "Plus Network" extends to well over 2,500 quality truck stops
and travel centers.  This includes independents as well as chain operators
like Fast Lane, Fuel City, Gas City, Go Marts, Knox Fuel, Kwik Trip, MAPCO
Express, Pilot, SAPP Bros., Speedway SuperAmerica, Steel City, Sun Mart,
TravelCenters of America, Tomahawk, Total Petroleum, Town Pump, and Williams
TravelCenters.  The network continues to grow daily as additional merchants
want to be part of this exciting new program.
    Used by Class 7 and 8 long-haul truckers, the Fleet One Over The Road
program offers numerous services, including enhanced purchasing power for fuel
and maintenance, private label programs, data capture, permit services,
accounts receivable financing and web hosting & design.  The cards also
provide ATM service for authorized cardholders, payroll services, insurance
coverage, and more.
    Fleet One recently combined with the TransPlatinum Plus product line under
the Fleet One name.  The Nashville, Tenn.-based company provides electronic
payment authorization and billing, financial settlement, credit card
processing and a host of other services for fleets consisting of all sizes and
classes of vehicles.
    Fleet One is a subsidiary of National Commerce Financial Corporation
(NYSE: NCF).
