Systems and methods for tracking fuel deliveries

A mobile device for tracking fuel deliveries, comprising:

• a reader for reading information from a tag on a vehicle, including at least a vehicle identifier of the vehicle;
• and
• at least one processor programmed with instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to:
• communicate with a fuel meter of a fuel truck for enabling the fuel meter in response to reading of the vehicle identifier by the reader so that the fuel meter allows fuel to flow from a tank of the fuel truck through the fuel meter for a refueling operation for the vehicle;
• poll the fuel meter for receiving from the fuel meter a plurality of readings indicating amounts of the fuel that have passed through the fuel meter;
• determine a first value indicating a total amount of the fuel that has passed through the fuel meter during the refueling operation for the vehicle based on the plurality of readings;
• store the first value in memory;
• and
• correlate the first value with the vehicle identifier in the memory.
