GasBuddy launches new service for on-demand delivery companies
Grubhub and Gridwise among first partners in GasBuddy’s new Payments-as-a-Service program.
GasBuddy announced a new B2B program, Payments-as-a-Service, enabling companies to recruit, reward and retain their consumers and employees with discounted and free gas.
Among the first partners to leverage GasBuddy’s program are Grubhub, a leading online and mobile food-ordering and delivery marketplace; and Gridwise, a mobile platform that helps rideshare and delivery drivers maximize their earnings.
"Gasoline is the biggest expense for drivers," said Gridwise CEO Ryan Green. "Helping our drivers save on fuel costs has been a major initiative for us, and we wanted to find a program that could accommodate our nationwide audience. Pay with GasBuddy's agnostic brand works with nearly all gas stations across the country and gives us the ability to offer fuel savings to every one of our drivers."
The national average for a gallon of gasoline is projected to rise in 2021 and could eventually hit $3 per gallon, the first time in more than seven years, according to GadBuddy.
