FAQs

About RightPay

  • What is RightPay?

    RightPay is a Pay As You Go fuel card that gives you all the benefits of a standard fuel card (fixed price diesel, HMRC approved VAT billing and much more) but with the major advantages of real time reporting on your fuel spend, and the ability to Top Up your balance via your online account 24/7 from your computer, tablet or phone. With RightPay you get as many fuel cards as you require, which you can easily manage online with your account. You will also benefit from direct access to convenient fixed diesel prices at more than 3000 stations across the UK.

  • How is RightPay different from other fuel cards?

    RightPay offers flexible Pay As You Go payments for your diesel fuel and does not require you to go through an extensive credit check. Once you receive your cards, all you need to do is Top Up your account online and then use the balance toward the purchase of diesel at selected stations. Everything else you get with other traditional fuel cards, from fixed fuel pricing to HMRC approved invoicing, comes with RightPay too. 

  • Is RightPay secure?

    Very secure indeed. Your RightPay account is not linked to your bank account, and only uses the money that you’ve already topped up. You will get direct access to real time information about your fuel spend through your online account, which makes it easy to quickly spot anything unusual.

    Topping up your RightPay account is also secure. Credit and debit card Top Ups are managed and secured by SagePay, one of the most trusted Internet payment service provider. 

  • Will you carry out a credit check when I apply?

    No, but we will carry a ID and Fraud verification check to help us decide whether we are able to offer you RightPay. This is what it's called a 'soft' search and it will not affect your credit score rating in any way. If you're applying as a Limited Company, we will only do a basic internal check of your credentials. 

    If you've been turned down for fuel cards in the past because of your credit history, then you should definitely consider applying for RightPay!

  • Is RightPay available only to businesses?

    Right now we're only able to offer RightPay to Limited Companies, Sole Traders and Partnerships. We're focussed on developing RightPay to be as good as possible before expanding, watch this space!

  • How much does RightPay cost?

    RightPay gives you everything you need to manage your fuel costs for the simple price of £1 per card per month.

  • Who runs RightPay?

    Rightpay is powered by the team at The Right Fuelcard Company, one of the leading distributors of fuel cards in the UK. Head to the About Us page to find out more. 

Cards

  • What can I do with my RightPay cards?

    You can use your RightPay cards to pay for fuel at more than 1,700 stations in the UK. Before you can start using your cards, you'll need to top up your account balance which will be used to fund your transactions. When your balance runs down, all you have to do is top up again. 

  • What can I buy with my cards?

    RightPay is designed to purchase standard diesel. You may use your cards to pay for unleaded fuel or other non-fuel related products, however such items may incur in a surcharge. 

  • How do I pay with my cards?

    It couldn't be easier! Fill up your vehicle, walk into the shop at the filling station and hand over your RightPay card to the cashier. Always make sure you've got a sufficient available balance on your RightPay account to cover your transaction. Some locations, such as unmanned stations, will require a PIN to confirm your payment, whilst other will ask you to sign.

  • Can I have multiple cards under one account?

    Yes, you can have and use as many cards as you want to. All your cards can be managed via your RightPay online account, so you can easily monitor your spending even if the cards are used by different drivers. 

    When you top up, the money will be deposited into your account and your RightPay balance will be shared across all your cards. 

  • How long will it take for my cards to arrive?

    Once we have approved your application, we aim to get cards dispatched to you within 3-5 working days. If your cards haven’t arrived after 5 days from receiving your welcome email, please send us a message through our contact form

  • My cards have arrived, what’s next?

    The cards are active and you can start using them as soon as you receive them. Just make sure you've topped up your account before and that your available balance is enough to cover your transactions. You can top up and check your RightPay balance on the dashboard of your online account

    At some stations, such as unmanned sites, you might need to enter your PIN to authorise your transactions. Your PIN codes are saved in the 'Manage Cards' section of your online account.   

     

  • Where can I use my cards?

    RightPay is accepted at more than 1,800 stations around the UK, and new stations are added regularly. Use our handy site locator to quickly find available stations around your preferred location.

    The network is known as 'multi-branded' and includes leading fuel brands such as selected Shell, Esso and BP, giving you excellent coverage on both motorways and urban areas. RightPay is also accepted at all Morrisons and Co-operative stations.

  • Can I use my cards outside the UK?

    No, RightPay cards can only be used at participating stations in the UK. 

  • What price do I pay with Rightpay?

    When you use your RightPay cards to buy standard diesel fuel at participating stations, you pay a fixed price which is calculated weekly and it’s closely linked to the wholesale fuel market. You'll get a notification every Friday by email or text with your price for the following week (Monday to Sunday).

  • Where are my PIN codes?

    To find the PIN codes for your cards log in to your online account and select 'My Cards' and then 'Manage Cards' from the navigation menu. Here you will see a table with details for each card registered on your account, including PIN codes. If you have more than one card linked to your account, each one will have its own specific PIN.

    You will not have to enter your PIN every time you use your cards, as a PIN is usually required only when filling up at unmanned stations and pay at pump machines.

Fill Ups

  • How do I know if my RightPay card is accepted at the station?

    The best and quickest way to find out is to check our site locator

  • Will I get a receipt for my fill up transactions?

    After processing the transaction, the cashier will provide you with a receipt, but the beauty of RightPay is that you don't need to keep each piece of paper!

    Your fill ups transactions from a week are compiled into one handy receipt, which will appear in your online account every Wednesday. Receipts can be used for accounting purposes and look just like invoices, the only difference being that they’ve already been paid for with you RightPay balance.

    Each receipt will show a list of all the fill up transactions made with your RightPay cards the previous week (Monday to Sunday). If you don’t fill up with RightPay for a week, you will not see any receipt appearing in your online account.

    You can view, download or print your fill up receipts by log into your online account and select 'Fill Up Receipts and Top Up History' under 'View History'.

    Our receipts are fully HMRC approved, meaning you can use them to claim back VAT if your circumstances allow.

  • My card has been declined, why?

    Some of the reasons declines might happen include:

    - The station isn't part of the RightPay network: you will need an alternative payment method to complete the transaction. To find out if RightPay is accepted, check our site locator or ask the cashier before filling up your vehicle. 

    - You don't have enough balance to cover your transaction: If you are at the station and realise your balance is not enough, you can Top Up through your online account with your debit or credit card using your smartphone or tablet (you will need an internet connection to access your online account). Please note that it could take up to one hour to receive the Top Up payment in your account. 

  • Is there a transaction fee?

    Nope, you won’t be charged a transaction fee when paying with your RightPay card.
