(13 April 2026 – Australia) Visa is set to release a new digital fleet solution with Westpac designed to simplify and modernise how the industry manages fleet and mobility spend in H2 2026.
The solution is powered by Pismo and utilises “Fleet 2.0” to deliver a modern, open-loop fleet payments experience. The solution will go live with Westpac, its first partner in Australia, in the latter half of the year giving fleet managers greater control, visibility and confidence over day-to-day operations.
The solution provides real‑time controls, enhanced security through tokenisation, and rich transaction data that improves visibility and oversight of fleet spend. The digital-first approach allows fleet managers to detect fraud immediately and removes the need to reimburse drivers for spend on personal cards while waiting for physical cards to arrive in the mail.
The fleet solution enables businesses to move from physical, merchant-specific fuel cards to digital Visa credentials that can be seamlessly provisioned to drivers’ digital wallets. These credentials can be used anywhere Visa is accepted, giving fleet operators a single, flexible solution to manage fuel, maintenance, tolls and other vehicle‑related expenses.
It is designed to provide a comprehensive, scalable payment solution that adapts to evolving business requirements, offering enhanced data capabilities, robust controls, and advanced analytics.
“This brings fleet payments together in one simple card, so businesses can see what’s being spent, stay in control, and spend less time on admin. Working with Visa helps us offer something that’s straightforward to use today and flexible enough to grow with Australian businesses” commented Jeff Byrne, Managing Director of Global Transaction Services at Westpac Institutional Bank.
“Fleet programs are ready for a step change, and partnerships like this with Westpac are critical to delivering it. By bringing Visa’s digital payment capabilities together with Westpac’s strong customer relationships, we are helping Australian businesses modernise fleet operations. This is an inflection point for fleet and mobility payments which opens the door to innovative new use cases that simply wasn’t possible before” stated Visa Head of Commercial & Government Solutions for Oceania, Ben Adams.
