U.S. Bank Multi Service Aviation has begun issuing its award-winning Multi Service Aviation Card to companies that use private aircraft and the pilots that fly them in Australia. The aviation fuel card, used to pay for fuel, maintenance and other aviation services, is accepted by 7,500 aviation service providers in more than 190 countries. In Australia, the cards will be issued through Elavon Financial Services Limited, part of U.S. Bancorp, parent company of U.S. Bank Multi Service Aviation.

With the addition of Australia, Multi Service Aviation now issues cards in 33 countries, with plans to expand to additional countries later this year. The Australian sales efforts will be managed out of South Africa by Martin Hankins, president, MH Aviation Services, Multi Service Aviation's regional representative.

"The Multi Service Aviation network helps pilots and companies around the world pay for aviation-related services, including fuel, flight planning, aircraft handling, trip support, weather tracking, catering and more," said Hankins. "Issuing the Multi Service Aviation Card to companies in Australia greatly expands the scope of our business and brings convenience to a new group of clients in this part of the world."

Lauded as the best aviation fuel card in the industry by Professional Pilot in its 2009 Preferences Regarding Aviation Services and Equipment (PRASE) awards, the Multi Service Aviation card provides its users with customized billing, free online account maintenance and savings on fuel. In addition, the Multi Service Aviation Card delivers value to merchants through account flexibility, free business promotion, competitive card processing, and fast transaction authorization and settlement.
