Nationwide migration begins

With the launch, TotalEnergies has commenced a nationwide migration from its existing cards to TEMC+. The transition is already underway and is expected to be fully completed by 31 December 2025.

Built for a digital economy

Speaking at the event, the Managing Director of TotalEnergies Marketing Nigeria Plc, Dr Samba Seye, said TEMC+ reflects the company’s long-standing commitment to innovation and customer satisfaction. He was represented by the General Manager, Retail and Cards, Abdullahi Umar.

Seye explained that the new platform was developed to meet the demands of a rapidly evolving digital economy, where speed, security and transparency are critical.

More than a mobility card

TotalEnergies described TEMC+ as more than a traditional mobility card. The platform combines secure online transactions with mobile app integration that provides real-time account visibility.

Other features include pre-authorisation for accurate fuel dispensing, instant SMS alerts, virtual card options and on-the-spot fund reallocation.

These tools are designed to simplify operations, reduce delays and improve the overall customer experience, particularly for businesses managing multiple vehicles and accounts.

Designed from customer feedback

The Project Manager for TEMC+, Osarobo Aigbogun, said the upgrade was shaped directly by customer feedback and represents an evolution of the existing Total Card rather than a complete replacement.

“We listened to our customers and went back to the drawing board. TEMC+ is the next evolution of Total Cards.

It represents growth, not replacement. We are improving what we already had,” he said.

Flexible payments and real-time control

TEMC+ introduces three payment options: card payment, mobile app payment and one-time password payment.
