3 ways telematics data can maximise your fuel tax rebate

Fuel prices put a significant financial strain on logistics and freight businesses, with fluctuating national rates making it difficult to keep costs down or calculate your fuel tax rebate.

Most businesses with a fleet of vehicles or heavy equipment will be entitled to a rebate on the fuel tax charged to public road users. Rates are dependent on a variety of factors, including what fuel you use and what activity you use it for, and are constantly changing.

Maximising a fuel tax rebate is made easier when using quality vehicle telematics for proof of journey data and fuel spending.

Maximising this fuel tax rebate is made easier when using quality vehicle telematics, to monitor your vehicle's movements and log data that can assist with your claim for a refund. Telematics systems suppliers Pinpoint Communications is here to show you three ways telematics data can maximise your fuel tax rebate.

1. GPS and IAP

These letters may seem meaningless, but they are a fast way to make your heavy fleet vehicles more efficient. Australian heavy fleet businesses are able to avail of Transport Certification Australia's (TCA) Intelligent Access Program (IAP). This is a system designed to provide heavy vehicles with improved access to Australian roads. In return, you can achieve higher productivity and lower the number of trips, impacting fuel consumption and labour cost. 

The IAP allows drivers to take more efficient routes with a higher payload, thereby saving fuel. It also allows you to better record and log your fuel costs, which will help when you claim your tax rebate. Pinpoint are a certified IAP technology supplier, with a focus on providing the best equipment and ongoing customer services for our customers.

Saving thousands could come down to the use of telematics data to maximise your fuel tax rebate. Saving thousands could come down to the use of telematics data to maximise your fuel tax rebate. 

2. Real-time updates

Pinpoint's certified telematics systems also afford drivers and fleet managers the ability to access real-time data during their journey. For fleet vehicles in remote parts of Australia, having real-time updates about routes that may be compromised due to roadworks or inaccessible due to weather conditions could be worth thousands of dollars.

In assessing real time journey data, drivers can save fuel costs in costly delays, while again proving compliance with fuel tax rebate rules around the use of fuel in an off-public road setting.

Answering how you can save money on a fuel tax rebate for your fleet business is a question of being compliant with ATO requirements.

3. Telematics communications

Answering how you can save the most money on a fuel tax rebate for your fleet business is a question of being compliant - if you can prove that you have fulfilled the Australian Tax Office's requirements, you will most likely be successful. Thus, logging your journey and fleet operations with telematics data is vital.

Pinpoint's telematics system offers an unrivaled communications and messaging platform that allows drivers and managers to communicate at all times, no matter the weather conditions or network coverage. In being able to relay information from the road to home base instantaneously, drivers and managers can do their part to save fuel and stay compliant with requirements for a fuel tax rebate.

Maximising your fuel tax rebate has never been easier - with the help of Pinpoint's quality telematics systems. For more information on what can be used to make fleet drivers more efficient and save fuel costs, contact our team today.
