CINCINNATI- Mike Albert Vehicle Fleet Management has selected U.S. Bank Voyager Fleet Systems, a provider of universal fleet fueling and maintenance cards, to provide its customers with fleet cards.

Accepted at more than 230,000 fuel and maintenance locations in the United States, the Voyager Universal Fleet Card complements Mike Albert's existing portfolio of nationwide services, including fleet leasing and fleet management.

"Voyager is pleased with this latest opportunity to be working with one of the premier fleet vehicle lease companies in the industry," said Jeffrey A. Rankin, Senior Sales and Marketing Officer, U.S. Bank Corporate Payment Systems.

More than just a fuel card, the Universal Voyager Fleet Card stands out because it allows for control at the card level, as well as at the account level, giving fleet administrators the ability to customize every card. Within a single account, the fleet card can be assigned to individual drivers, vehicles or entire organizations. 

Mike Albert customers will also benefit from Voyager's powerful control and security parameters found within Voyager Fleet Commander Online, allowing customers to add drivers and vehicles; report lost or stolen cards; issue new or replacement cards; update driver and vehicle information and modify personal identification numbers (PINs) via the Internet.

Additionally, several spending control options allow Mike Albert customers to determine purchase types and limits on a card-by-card basis.

"This relationship will benefit our customers in providing them the tools to effectively control their fuel costs," said Randy Kleeman, Product Manager at Mike Albert. "Voyager offers the convenience, purchase controls, and reporting options that our clients demand."
