WEX® and Trucker Path Team Up to Provide Truck-Safe Navigation to Fleets and Drivers
WEX® (NYSE: WEX), the global commerce platform that simplifies the business of running a business, and Trucker Path, creators of the comprehensive and relied upon mobile app for commercial truck drivers, today announced a collaboration to offer WEX over-the-road EFS customers Trucker Path for Fleets, the truck-safe navigation app for North American truckers. The joint effort will provide access to the mobile app at a preferred rate, giving drivers the ability to avoid hazards, plan efficient routes, and access real-time information on parking, weather, and road conditions.
“Trucker Path for Fleets adds an important capability for our over-the-road customers,” said Timothy Hampton, senior vice president and general manager of Over-the-Road at WEX. “Its trusted navigation technology helps drivers avoid hazards and reach destinations more efficiently. This is the beginning of a shared commitment to simplify fleet operations and make life on the road safer for truckers.”
Features designed for real-world trucking challenges
Powered by input from more than one million users each month, Trucker Path provides navigation for drivers and fleet managers, tailored to truck dimensions and restrictions, helping avoid low overpasses, sharp turns, and weight-restricted roads. Additional features include:

- Fleet tracking and load ETA updates with continuous GPS integration to TMS platforms.
- Weigh station statuses and wait times for better trip timing.
- Custom map layers to highlight or restrict points of interest (POIs), plus the ability to upload proprietary POIs.

Looking ahead to more services for fleets and drivers
“The alliance between Trucker Path and WEX expands access to tools that benefit both drivers and the fleets they drive for,” said Chris Oliver, chief marketing officer of Trucker Path. “WEX customers will enjoy the same navigation advantages trusted by our community, plus added features for fleet operations — all at a greatly reduced cost.
