Brentwood, Tenn., — October 2009 — Comdata Corporation, a leader in payment innovation, announces an agreement with Mercury Air Group’s Mercury Fuels division, the largest independent supplier of aviation fuel to the fractional jet industry, to provide a proprietary point-of-sale system for the business aviation industry. Designed to simplify and improve the fuel purchasing process, Comdata’s web-based solution streamlines data capture and provides detailed reporting for fixed-base operators and fractional jet organizations.
