Your receipt will show, among other things, also the total number of points you have accumulated.
Users must register with the IPiù programme in their own name and with their own Codice Fiscale (tax code) and so it is not possible to access the programme with multiple accounts.

You can check the expiry date by completing the form you find when you click this link.
An electronic invoice will be sent to your “cassetto fiscale" (financial transactions archive).
The invoice date is based on the date the order is dispatched, NOT the date it is placed.
Fuel vouchers with a PIN can be used at staffed service stations, IPmatic and Self Prepay pumps.
On the BCE, the PIN is located on the upper right part of the back of the card below a grey rectangular sticker, which we advise removing carefully so as not to ruin it.
On BCVs, the PIN is sent by the supplier with the methods it has defined
If you entered the wrong PIN 3 times in a row, the voucher will be blocked as a precaution. You will need to wait 24 hours for it to be unblocked automatically.
Contact the call centre at the link https://ip.gruppoapi.com/contatti/it/scrivici/buoni-carburante. Our operators will perform the appropriate checks
If the voucher has become demagnetised or has an illegible PIN
- Enter the contacts area at the link https://ip.gruppoapi.com/contatti/it/scrivici/buoni-carburante
- select the “voucher management” category
- select the “replacement of unusable voucher” topic
- download the “voucher replacement” form that you will find on the page, complete the required fields and attach the properly completed form
- attach a photo of the back of the voucher to be replaced and send the form
The fuel voucher is a bearer instrument and therefore may not be reimbursed, so store it carefully
Check the type of voucher you are using, if BCE (physical card) or BCV (19-digit PAN plus PIN that you have probably received by email)
If you are trying to use the BCV in Self-Service Pre-Pay mode, at the moment this voucher cannot be used in this mode, but only for fuelling carried out in full-service or self-service mode with payment to the manager.
