Billing cycle

The recurring period covered by a fuel card statement or invoice.

Why It Matters

The billing cycle determines when card charges are tallied and payment is due. It affects cash-flow planning and when the account balance resets.

What to Check

• Confirm the cycle length, payment due date and late payment fee timing.
• Check whether the cycle aligns with freight payment or settlement schedules.
• Download transaction reports at cycle end to keep IFTA and cost records current.
