Edenred is teaming up with American Express to offer a unique joint fuel card solution for Mexico.
American Express will now offer its clients a solution combining the specific features of the Ticket Car® fuel card and American Express financing and credit facilities.
This offer will bring companies the advanced functionalities of Ticket Car®, including the country's largest private service station network, advanced monitoring of business expenses, and the ability to deduct fuel expenses and recover VAT with a single statement including all their spending[1]. This joint solution will also answer the credit needs of companies, especially in the small and mid-sized segment.

- Incentive and rewards programs (Ticket Compliments, Ticket Kadéos, etc.)
The Group also supports public institutions in managing their social programs.

[1]Since the 2014 Mexican Tax Reform, only statements issued by fuel card providers certified by the fiscal authorities (SAT) are accepted as proof for tax purposes (companies using other means of payment have to collect invoices from service stations for every expense). The Ticket Car® solution, certified by the SAT, fulfills all the new requirements added in the 2014 Reform, thanks to its private network allowing a high level of control and traceability of business expenses.
