SYDNEY / MELBOURNE — July 2026 — WEX (NYSE: WEX), a global leader in intelligent payment solutions, and the NRMA, Australia’s largest mutual organisation, today announced a strategic collaboration to deliver enhanced value to their respective small business member bases.
The collaboration brings together two highly trusted brands to help small-to-medium businesses (SMBs) manage the complexities of being on the road. Both WEX and the NRMA are corporate partners of the Australasian Fleet Management Association (AfMA), and this relationship further reflects their shared investment in simplifying and advancing the Australian fleet industry.
“Our collaboration with NRMA is about delivering tangible value to the people who keep the Australian economy moving,” Matt Arthur, Vice President and GM, APAC Mobility at WEX said. “By joining forces with another AfMA partner, we’re providing our customers with an exclusive suite of support tools that help them manage their business more effectively. This is about two industry leaders coming together to make life on the road simpler for everyone.”
Direct Value for Members
The focus of the NRMA-WEX collaboration is to provide members with preferential rates and expert support for their essential vehicle needs. By aligning their expertise, WEX and the NRMA are offering a more coordinated, cost-effective way for business owners to keep their vehicles moving.
Key benefits for each member base include:
- For WEX Motorpass Customers: The NRMA becomes the exclusive roadside assistance partner for WEX in Australia, providing access to the country’s premier vehicle assistance network. Customers can access 25% off NRMA Business Roadside with a $0 membership fee for their first year.
- For NRMA Business Members: WEX Motorpass becomes the exclusive fuel card partner, offering NRMA Business Members preferential rates and a streamlined way to manage expenses at 95% of service stations nationwide. Members will receive an introductory offer of 6 cents off per litre for 6 months and 30% off card fees ongoing.
Beyond these core offers, both organisations will collaborate on expert content designed to help business owners make informed decisions about fuel efficiency, fleet safety, and the evolving energy landscape.
A survey of almost 450 NRMA Business members found that 77% listed fuel as the greatest fleet-related cost to their business, further highlighting the importance of the NRMA and WEX Motorpass partnership.
“Small businesses are a vital part of our community, but they are often the most time-pressed,” said NRMA General Manager Marketing and Proposition, Kate McBean. This collaboration allows us to offer our members a fuel management solution that matches the reliability of our roadside assistance and, crucially, reduces the fuel cost on our members. We are proud to work with WEX to further our shared mission of supporting the Australian fleet industry and delivering even more value to our members.”
Mace Hartley, Executive Director of the Australasian Fleet Management Association (AfMA), welcomed the collaboration, highlighting the value of industry partnerships that deliver practical outcomes for Australian businesses.
“One of the strengths of the AfMA community is the opportunity it creates for organisations to collaborate in ways that deliver genuine value for fleet operators.
It’s great to see WEX and the NRMA building on that shared commitment to support Australian businesses with practical solutions.”
