For years, fleets faced a difficult choice: retail fuel cards offered broad station access but limited discounts, while traditional cardlock fuel cards provided cost-plus pricing with a much smaller network of sites. The CFN FleetWide fuel card program was developed to address this challenge, giving fleets the ability to save on fuel expenses at CFN cardlock locations while also granting access to more than 65,000 retail gas stations and truck stops nationwide. This dual-network approach enables businesses to maximize cost savings without sacrificing driver flexibility—drivers can fuel conveniently at retail stations whenever CFN cardlock sites are not available, helping to reduce route disruptions and maintain operational efficiency.
In this guide, we’ll explain how the CFN FleetWide program works, outline where the card is accepted, and highlight how it differs from traditional CFN cardlock fueling. You'll learn how to locate FleetWide locations, compare cardlock and retail pricing structures, and understand key differences in data and purchase controls.

What is CFN FleetWide?
Originally, the CFN fuel card could only be used at 3,000 CFN cardlock locations across the Western U.S. While the Commercial Fueling Network (CFN) remained the largest network of commercial fueling sites in the country, many drivers needed more options when traveling outside areas served by CFN cardlocks.
To meet that need, CFN extended acceptance to 65,000 retail stations nationwide and branded this additional access as "CFN FleetWide". With the CFN FleetWide card, you get the savings and controls of CFN cardlock fueling plus the added convenience of retail stations and truck stops when you're in areas with no cardlock coverage.
What Stations Accept the CFN FleetWide Card?

How Do I Find CFN FleetWide Locations?
CFN has a site locator to help drivers find accepting fuel locations. You can use the CFN FleetWide site locator on your computer or download the CFN FleetWide mobile app to find stations on your phone.
The CFN Site Locator Can Help You:
- Find CFN FleetWide locations near you
- Filter locations by fuel type
- Search for sites by amenities like 18-wheel access, truck parking, 24/7, scales, etc.
- View only CFN cardlock locations that offer cost-plus fuel card pricing by selecting "CFN Cardlock" and "CFNnet"
Is the Pricing Different Between CFN FleetWide and Cardlock Locations?
| CFN FleetWide Sites (Gas Stations and Truck Stops) | CFN Cardlock Sites |
| Retail posted pump price | Cost-plus fuel card pricing |
Yes, pricing differs between CFN FleetWide and CFN cardlock locations. CFN cardholders pay the regular retail pump price at retail gas stations and truck stops, but receive cost-plus pricing when fueling at CFN cardlock sites. On average, cost-plus cardlock prices run 10–35¢ per gallon cheaper than retail, depending on market conditions. You can view estimated savings by city and state in the CFN Fuel Prices Quarterly Report.
Because cardlock prices are usually cheaper than retail prices, it’s smart to fuel at cost-plus locations whenever possible to maximize savings and use FleetWide retail sites only when a CFN cardlock isn’t nearby.
Two Differences in Data Collection and Controls at CFN FleetWide Sites
The CFN FleetWide card works the same at both CFN cardlock and FleetWide sites besides two features: third prompt data capture and product controls.
1. No Third Prompt Data Capture at FleetWide Sites
When fueling with a CFN fuel card, drivers enter their Driver ID and odometer reading at both CFN cardlock and FleetWide sites to start fueling. Because the CFN card is built for business fleets, it includes an optional third prompt, a “miscellaneous entry” field, used to capture extra data like unit numbers, job numbers, or P.O. numbers for better tracking and reporting.
At FleetWide sites, retail point-of-sale (POS) systems don’t support the third “miscellaneous entry” prompt. As a result, companies that rely on this data won’t see those entries for retail or truck stop transactions. To work around this, some fleets have drivers enter a job number, P.O. number, or similar code in place of the odometer when fueling at retail locations to capture this data.
2. Product Controls Aren't Enforced at FleetWide Sites
Product Controls Are Enforced at Cardlocks
CFN fuel cards include product controls, which determine what types of fuel each card can purchase. At CFN cardlock sites, these controls are fully enforced. For example, if a driver’s card is restricted to diesel only and they attempt to buy gas, the transaction will be automatically declined, preventing the purchase from going through.
Product Controls Are Not Enforced at FleetWide Sites, Use Exception Alerts Instead
Retail gas stations and truck stop POS systems don’t have the ability to enforce product controls. This means a driver whose card is restricted to diesel only could still purchase gas at a retail site because the system can’t block the transaction. To prevent misuse, you can enable product exception alerts, which notify you by email whenever a card purchases a fuel type that differs from its assigned product control. In this case, the driver would still be able to fuel, but you’d be immediately alerted that the wrong product was purchased.
Can You Turn Off CFN FleetWide Station Access on CFN Fuel Cards?
Yes, you can disable CFN FleetWide access for individual fuel cards directly in your online portal by selecting “No” in the retail column. This limits the card to CFN cardlock locations only. The control can be adjusted at any time, so if a driver with FleetWide access turned off is assigned to a new route that requires fueling at retail stations, you can easily switch the retail control back to “Yes” to re-enable FleetWide access.
