Wright Express has issued its four millionth commercial charge card as it continues to solidify its position as a leading provider of fleet cards and fleet management services.

The steady growth in cards issued by Wright Express has been fueled by increases across all of its traditional commercial card programs, as well as increases in newer product lines such as MasterCard.
Wright Express has also built its card base by continuing to push aggressively into new markets, such as regional fuel distribution through its new RoadSmith program, and heavy trucks through its new Heavy Truck Division.
"Passing the four million card mark is an important milestone for Wright Express," said Michael Dubyak, president of the South Maine-based firm. "This milestone is also exciting because it signals the success of new programs, such RoadSmith and MasterCard. We expect our new Heavy Truck Division and our Total Fleet Management Program to continue our positive momentum."
The core of the Wright Express business has long been the company's three major lines -- its proprietary Wright Express Universal Card, its private label business in conjunction with the nation's largest oil companies, and its co-brand business, where it partners with the nation's leading fleet management providers. These cards, which remain the bulk of the Wright Express' business, are accepted at fueling sites and select service centers nationwide.
Wright Express, founded in 1983, passed the one million card mark in 1996, and then soared past two million cards by 1999 and three million cards by 2001.
Wright Express cards are accepted at more than 160,000 locations. Wright Express also provides information management, payment processing, and financial services to fleets through card partnerships with oil companies and fleet management companies.
TWright Express LLC, a subsidiary of Cendant Corp., employs more than 640 people at its headquarters in South Portland, Maine and its subsidiary in Salt Lake City, Utah.
