Fleet regulations are complex - we make compliance easy

Merchants Fleet recognizes that fleet regulations are ever-changing and can be confusing. We stay on top of the latest changes so we can keep our clients informed and address any challenges that may arise from new compliance requirements. We help you stay in compliance with all Department of Transportation (DOT), Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA), and Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) regulations. Protect yourself from costly fines and liability through the following services.

“Since partnering with Merchants Fleet last year, their professional team members have provided excellent service and offered innovative solutions to address our unique needs.  Merchants has proven to be a top-tier fleet management company, exceeding our expectations on all levels.”

“My experience has been one of overwhelming delight. Merchants facilitates the expansion of Novus Ag business possibilities with their experienced professional staff by engaging in supporting activities. Allowing Novus Ag to lease short term vehicles while factory ordering enables us to save tens of thousands while immediately placing the employee in a high-quality truck. From permitting Novus to lease agricultural, material handling assets, to fuel and maintenance programs, we consider them a valuable partner.”

Frequently Asked Questions

What if I scan a QR code and it doesn’t work or takes me to a different app?

This indicates that this charger is not part of the Electrify Fleet network. You can only use chargers that appear on the map in the app. To locate another charger within the network, refer to the map in the app.

Some stations have QR codes and others do not. How do I initiate a charge with or without the QR code?

If the station has a QR code, you can scan the code within the app to initiate a charge.  If the station does not have a QR code, you will need to identify the station in the map within the app and select it to start a charge.

Do I need to enable roaming stations?

There are a variety of networks tied into the Electrify Fleet app.  To include all networks, roaming is set as a default to maximize the number of stations available to you.  To maximize the options for your drivers, always make sure roaming is on.

Is a key fob needed to initiate a charge

No, with the Electrify Fleet app, you do not need a key fob.  A charge can be initiated within the app at any charging station shown.

Why is my EV charging at a slower rate than the listed station power?

The listed station power is a maximum charging rate that station can provide, but several factors can cause your EV to charge at a slower rate. Usually, the charging rate is limited because the vehicle is limiting the charging rate. The most common causes of a lower rate are:
  • The EV’s maximum allowed charging rate is lower than the charger’s max rate.
  • The EV is limiting the charging rate because the battery is nearly full (example: over 80% state of charge).
  • If the charger has two ports in use at the same time, the available power may be split between two vehicles.
Refer to your owner’s manual for your vehicle to learn more.

Can I charge my Tesla vehicle at any charging station in this mobile app?

Yes, Tesla models can charge at any station in the Electrify Fleet app, as long as your driver is equipped with the proper adapter for the proprietary Tesla charging port.
