What is the Comdata OnRoad Card? 🎥2026-08-25T16:58:13+00:00

 

The Comdata OnRoad® card is a universally accepted Mastercard® in the U.S. that allows access to company funds and driver payments from a single card. The OnRoad® Card operates on the MasterCard Signature Debit network, meaning you can use it like a credit card: swipe, sign your name, and continue with your day.

Moreover, all MasterCard Signature Debit transactions are free of fees, so there’s no need to worry about losing money on your purchases. Just look for the MasterCard logo at checkout. Also, you can still use OnRoad® for company-related expenses, such as fuel and maintenance, based on your company’s policies. With OnRoad®, you have full control over your money and can use your funds as you see fit.

How will the OnRoad card help me?2026-08-26T10:40:49+00:00

There are many benefits to you for using OnRoad®, such as:

  • No need to carry cash, which is secure and a great option if you don’t have a bank account.
  • Acceptance at 160,000+ MasterCard locations nationwide, so there is no need to worry about transaction declines.
  • Ability to use personal funds as you see fit, such as buying groceries, paying bills, and even purchasing big-ticket items like airline tickets and travel tours.

How can I get an OnRoad card?2026-08-26T10:44:26+00:00

Your company’s card program administrator will order your OnRoad® card. Depending on your admin’s preference, they may distribute the card to you or send it directly to your home address.

Where can I use the OnRoad Card?2026-08-26T10:48:10+00:00

Use your OnRoad® Card anywhere MasterCard Signature Debit is accepted in the U.S., just look for the MasterCard logo at checkout. In addition, the OnRoad® Card is accepted on the Comdata Proprietary network, meaning you can conduct company purchases, such as fuel and maintenance, while still managing your personal funds. Furthermore, when you first receive your card, you must set up a PIN that will allow you to access your funds from any ATM in the Cirrus or Allpoint network.

What can I buy with the OnRoad Card?2026-08-26T11:07:27+00:00

The OnRoad® Card can be used just like cash, meaning you can purchase anything from office supplies, groceries, hotels, airline tickets, haircuts, and movie streaming services.

Can I get cash back?2026-08-26T10:59:29+00:00

No, the OnRoad® Card runs like a credit card and requires no PIN at the point of sale, so cashback is not available. However, you can access cash at an ATM (Cirrus or Allpoint networks only) or any bank teller free of charge. Select Checking for Express Cash Funds. Select Savings for Cash on Card funds.

Self-CIP

Why do I need to complete the CIP process?2024-03-06T18:31:16+00:00

Bank sponsors have long required sensitive personal information for programs involving financial transactions as part of the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC)’s Know Your Customer regulations. Anyone conducting financial transactions with financial institutions must provide this private information in order to do business with them.

How long will it take to find out if Self-Service CIP passed?2026-08-27T18:01:00+00:00

Cardholders find out instantaneously in the COMDATA® app if they’ve been approved or have failed CIP. If a Cardholder is signing up as a business, their application may need to be reviewed by the compliance team. If so, they’ll see a pending status in the COMDATA® app. Pending reviews may take a maximum of 7 business days to complete.

What happens when the Self-Service CIP is successful?2026-08-27T17:58:43+00:00

Once the process is successful, the card will appear in the wallet in the COMDATA® app, and you can start using the app with full available functionality.

If I get a new card, will I have to complete Self-Service CIP again?2026-08-27T17:57:46+00:00

The CIP record is tied to your COMDATA® app account, not the card. If you receive a new card for any reason (i.e., a replacement card or moving jobs), there is no need to pass CIP again. The new card can be added to your existing COMDATA® account, and the CIP record will be loaded onto the new card.

Note: If you delete your COMDATA® account, you must reapply for CIP.

Alerts & Notifications

Why we send Alerts and Notifications?2024-02-14T17:50:57+00:00

Protecting our cardholders’ security is a top priority. By protecting that security, we are helping you and your company avoid the risks of identity theft and fraud, which can cost you money. In addition, we aim to keep you and your cardholders informed on card declines that are not fraud-related.

How does Alerts and Notifications work?2024-02-14T16:52:02+00:00

Your company’s Mastercard Administrator will sign up your company for the program, and then you will receive an enrollment email. Follow the instructions in the email to confirm your participation. Once enrolled, you will receive text message alerts each time our risk management system identifies a suspicious transaction on your Mastercard. Then, you can reply to the message and mark it as fraudulent or legitimate.

If you identify a transaction as fraudulent, each additional transaction will be declined. However, you will receive a text message with each declined transaction, allowing you to override the declined authorization. If you override, you can swipe your card again and continue the transaction as normal, only if the transaction is for the same amount and from the same merchant. If you receive a declined transaction you don’t recognize, there is no need to respond, as the transaction was not authorized.

This is very beneficial, as you can continue using your card even if the card number is compromised.

Is there a charge to participate in Alerts and Notifications?2024-02-14T18:21:31+00:00

Standard data and text rates will apply. However, cardholders only receive text messages if suspicious activity is identified on their card, fraud is confirmed, or a transaction is declined.

What if I want to unsubscribe from the Alerts and Notifications program?2024-02-14T17:58:22+00:00

We strongly encourage you to remain enrolled in the program to protect yourself and your company from credit card fraud. However, if you wish to unsubscribe, reply STOP to any text message you receive from the program.

Can I use the Alerts and Notifications program if I travel internationally?2024-02-14T17:57:04+00:00

Functionality outside of the United States depends on your mobile phone carrier and your type of device. Alerts and Notifications will function outside the U.S. in most cases, but this is not always guaranteed.

Who should I contact if I have more questions?2024-02-14T19:59:00+00:00

For questions about your enrollment, contact your company’s card Administrator. Call the 1-800 number on the back for other questions about using your card.

What types of purchases can I make?2026-08-26T12:37:18+00:00

One of the major advantages of the Comdata OnRoad® and Comchek cards is that you can make purchases anywhere Mastercard® and Maestro® cards are accepted (both in-store and online) in the U.S.  Your card works much like the debit card that is connected to your bank account – you can only make purchases that are less than or equal to the available balance on your card.  The available balance on your card is always visible on the home screen of your mobile app.
