What Radius Velocity is
Radius Velocity is an online fuel card management portal for UK customers, bringing administrative tasks together in one login. Users can view weekly HMRC-compliant invoices and access invoice history covering the previous 12 months. Reports group fuel spending by driver, vehicle type, station, and card, with graph, table, and map views and CSV downloads. Customers can cancel lost cards, order replacements, and freeze lost or stolen cards online or in the app. When paired with geo-plus vehicle tracking, the service can provide MPG data and alerts about potentially suspicious card transactions when a vehicle is absent. The Velocity Vehicle Check app supports daily smartphone checks, instant defect reports, digital records, and MOT, tax, and service reminders. Radius Velocity is free to UK customers, but using it requires a Radius customer account. The fuel card account’s main contact receives initial full access; additional employee access can be set up at the account holder’s request. It is available on Android, iOS, and the web.

The full review of Radius Velocity
Overview
Radius Velocity is a fuel-card management portal for businesses that already use Radius fuel cards. It suits UK account holders who want to oversee invoices, fuel spending and card security in one place. Its focused administration is useful, but it is not a standalone option for businesses without a Radius account.
Key features
Weekly HMRC-compliant invoices and access to the past 12 months of invoices help account holders review current charges and retrieve recent records. Spending reports can be grouped by driver, vehicle type, station or card, displayed as graphs, tables or maps, and downloaded as CSV files. That makes routine fuel oversight more flexible, though the reporting centers on fuel-card spending rather than broader fleet finances.
Account holders can cancel a lost card and order a replacement. Lost or stolen cards can also be frozen online or in the app, and the incident reported to help prevent unauthorised transactions. These controls are practical for responding quickly when a card goes missing.
Pairing Velocity with geo-plus vehicle tracking adds MPG data and alerts for potentially suspicious card transactions when the vehicle is absent. This may help identify unusual use, but it depends on having the tracking service as well as Velocity. The separate Velocity Vehicle Check app supports daily smartphone checks, instant defect reports, digital records, and MOT, tax and service reminders; it is relevant to fleets that also want a digital vehicle-check routine.
Pricing
Radius Velocity is free to UK customers, with a free plan listed as free. There is no free trial because the service is already offered free, but it is not open sign-up software: a Radius customer account is required, and login access is set up when the fuel card account is opened.
The fuel card account’s main contact receives initial full access. Additional employee access can be arranged at the account holder’s request, so businesses should factor account-holder setup into onboarding rather than expect employees to create access independently.
Platforms
Velocity is available on web, Android and iOS. Card controls can be used online or in the app. The separate Vehicle Check app covers daily checks and defect reporting on smartphones.
Who it's for
Velocity is a sensible fit for UK businesses already using Radius fuel cards that need invoice access, fuel-spend reporting and basic card controls without a separate software charge. Fleets using geo-plus tracking can also get MPG data and absence-related transaction alerts. Businesses seeking a fuel-management platform independent of Radius, or a complete fleet-management system, should consider other options.
Pros and cons
- Pros: Free for UK customers, with weekly HMRC-compliant invoices and a 12-month invoice archive.
- Pros: Fuel-spending reports can be filtered by driver, vehicle type, station or card, and exported as CSV.
- Pros: Lost or stolen cards can be frozen, cancelled and replaced through account tools.
- Cons: A Radius customer account is mandatory, limiting its appeal to businesses outside that ecosystem.
- Cons: Additional employee access requires the account holder to request setup.
- Cons: MPG data and suspicious-transaction alerts depend on geo-plus vehicle tracking.
Alternatives
Fuel Management Software is the broader category for comparing options. Track Star Fleet Fuel Management is another paid alternative for Android, iOS, web and API access.
Multi Service Fuel Card may suit buyers considering a paid fuel-card program that also has a free plan; its stated fees range from $0–$10 monthly for program maintenance, $0–$2 per fuel transaction, and 0%–3% of transaction amount for money fees. Geotab is a paid option with no free plan and a broader stated feature set including safety and AI scoring, compliance, predictive maintenance and fuel monitoring.
For card-led alternatives, AtoB Fleet Fuel Cards charges $3 a month per active card, plus a $35 account set-up fee; its prepaid cards allow fuel and non-fuel purchases without a spending limit beyond loaded funds. Corpay One Fuel & Fleet Cards charges $59 per account per month with nine or fewer active cards, and $0 per month with 10 or more. Fuelman Online Account Manager starts at $39 per month for Basic, with maintenance management for an additional fee; Pro is $59 per month. Coast offers Cards and expense management at $4 per active user per month, or Bill Pay at $99 per month.
Verdict
Choose Radius Velocity if your UK business already has Radius fuel cards and needs free access to invoices, fuel reports and card controls. Its account-based eligibility is the central trade-off: businesses that need a fuel-management service outside Radius should compare alternatives instead.
Getting started
- Open the Radius Velocity website or use the Android or iOS app.
- Open a Radius fuel card account; login access is set up when the account opens.
- Use the main contact’s initial full access, or ask the account holder to arrange access for additional employees.
