Public Charging & Fuel Payments - Comdata

Public Charging Payment Cards

Some fleets provide drivers with a way to pay for public charging sessions and fuel without using personal funds. If your fleet is enrolled in public charging and fuel payments with Inspiration, you may be provided with a comdata card (accepted at any public charger or gas station that accepts Mastercard) to use to pay for public charging sessions for EVs or fuel for ICE vehicles.

Note: Check your fleet's service passport to confirm which payment method your fleet uses. If you haven't received your card, contact your fleet manager.

Which method does my fleet use?

Your fleet's service passport specifies whether your fleet is enrolled in Inspirations public charging payment service and if you have been issued a payment card. If you're unsure, check with your fleet manager.

Comdata card: A physical or virtual card accepted at any public charging network that accepts Mastercard. This includes ChargePoint, EVgo, Electrify America, Blink, and most other networks. Check your onboarding materials to confirm whether Tesla Superchargers are included for your fleet.

Allowable expenses

Your payment card or app should be used only for public EV charging sessions (or fuel for ICE vehicles) for your fleet vehicle. Review your company's policy documents for specific spending guidelines, including any daily limits on the number of sessions.

Do not use the card or app for personal charging or fuel, or any purpose not related to charging your fleet vehicle.

Frequently asked questions

Which charging stations can I use with my Comdata Card?

Your Comdata card can be used at any public charging network or gas station that accepts Mastercard. Refer to your onboarding instructions for whether Tesla Superchargers are included for your fleet.

How many times per day can I use the card or app?

Refer to your company's policy documents or check with your fleet manager. Usage limits are set by your fleet, not by Inspiration.

What do I do if my card isn't working?

First, confirm you're using it only for authorized transactions at a public charger and that you're within your fleet's spending guidelines. Then check that the charger itself is functioning. Try a different charger or charging station.

If the problem persists, use the help channel in the app or the number on the back of your card. You can also contact the Inspiration Contact Center (number in your fleet passport).

What do I do if I lose my payment card?

Notify your fleet manager or administrator immediately so the card can be deactivated and a replacement arranged. Do not attempt to use a lost card.

Can I use the card for home charging or charging at work?

No. The card is intended for public charging only. Home charging reimbursement is handled through a separate program (see the Home Charging Reimbursement article). Workplace charging policies are set by your employer.

I accidentally used the card for a non-charging purchase. What do I do?

Notify your fleet manager immediately and follow your company's expense policy for reporting unauthorized purchases.
