Spring Payments Surpasses $50 Million in Real-Time Fuel Card Funding

Fort Worth, TX — June 2026 — Spring Payments, a leading provider of modern payment and credit solutions for the fuel and transportation industry, today announced that it has surpassed $50 million in real-time fuel card funding volume, powered through its innovative payment gateway platform supporting instant payments via Zelle®, debit cards, and credit cards.

The milestone underscores the growing demand for faster, more flexible payment solutions that enable carriers to access purchasing power when and where they need it most. Through Spring's Bring Your Own Payment (BYOP) platform, Spring’s partners can modernize their client experience by allowing carriers to instantly fund their fuel accounts 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, eliminating traditional banking delays and reducing operational friction.

As fuel providers continue to compete in an increasingly crowded market, Spring's technology enables them to differentiate beyond fuel discounts by providing immediate access to funds that keep trucks moving.

In addition to its funding platform, Spring recently launched its Bring Your Own Credit (BYOC) solution, a breakthrough credit platform designed specifically for transportation factoring fuel programs. BYOC enables carriers to access fuel purchasing power through alternative underwriting methods, delivering a near-100% approval rate while helping factors strengthen client relationships and drive fuel program adoption.

"Fuel discounts alone are no longer enough to drive fuel program growth," said Brian Carlgren, President of Spring Payments. "Our BYOP and BYOC programs open doors for fuel programs that have struggled to gain traction on discounts alone by putting purchasing power directly into the hands of cardholders. The reality is simple: carriers cannot take advantage of fuel discounts if they do not have the funds available to purchase fuel. Spring solves that problem by providing access to both just-in-time payments and credit when carriers need it most."

The company believes the combination of instant funding and expanded access to credit represents a fundamental shift in how fuel programs support carriers. By enabling real-time payments and simplifying access to working capital, Spring helps fuel programs, transportation factors, and fleet operators improve retention, increase fuel card utilization, and create a more seamless client experience.

With Spring's Bring Your Own programs, Spring implements on top of the partner’s existing fuel program and partners still own their own fuel program. Spring supports quick

implementations via its standalone gateway portal or more advanced embedded implementations via the Spring Payment Gateway API.

The $50 million milestone reflects rapid adoption among partners and carriers seeking modern alternatives to traditional banking and credit processes. Spring expects continued growth as the industry increasingly embraces digital payments, instant funding, and embedded credit solutions.
