ShopAvfuel.com Expands Checkout Capabilities; Aviation Retail Site Now Accessible to General Aviation Community
/Avfuel’s online retail store, shopAvfuel.com, has recently broadened its payment options to allow customers to make their online purchases using all major credit cards and a variety of other methods. For the first time, shopAvfuel.com and its large inventory of aviation fuel related equipment, parts, deicing fluid and quality assurance materials are now available to the general aviation community. Until now, the site’s diverse selection was exclusive to Avfuel-branded dealers.
“GSE managers requests for parts and equipment support recently increased due to several manufacturers and suppliers reducing or eliminating inventories” said Avfuel Technical Operations Manager, Brian Green. “Avfuel’s reputation as a knowledgeable, responsive supplier combined with the convenience of online order processing is a timely solution for the industry.”
The expansion of payment methods supplements a system that already offered customers an advanced shopping environment, including a shopping cart with memory, free U.S. ground shipping, order tracking and history. All of these features remain the same and are available to all customers. Customers also enjoy full technical documentation with many of the parts that they order. Payment methods include MasterCard, Visa, American Express and Discover. UPS Ground shipments are free on all Continental U.S. orders. Avfuel-branded dealers will continue to make their purchases through their individual accounts with Avfuel, and receive direct billing and special pricing.
“The new payment system is so easy, and it extends our retail presence to ground support and maintenance teams, corporate flight departments, pilots, FBO’s and all aviation companies. And because of the level of customer service available through shopAvfuel.com, the beneficiaries of this payment option are any aviation businesses that might want purchase-making assistance,” said Avfuel Director of Marketing Marci Ammerman. “This comes at a time when customers everywhere are looking for more efficient, cost-effective methods to acquire supplies for their businesses.”
