The LeaseWave® Fleet fleet management software system gives users the ability to manage the creation, issuance and administration of fleet cards through sophisticated fleet card functionality. The system generates fleet card numbers (through the use of standard credit card algorithms) for both existing and pre-ordered fleet vehicles. Fleet card information can then be exported, using industry-standard XML interfaces, to embossers. Once active in the system, the entire fleet card life-cycle can be managed by the fleet management system, including card deactivation (owing to loss, theft, termination, etc.) and card replacement (owing to damage, unit replacement, etc.).
