The company was founded in 1983 in Maine, USA, as Wright Express Corporation, focusing on providing fleet cards, payment processing services, and information management solutions to the U.S. commercial and government vehicle fleet industry. Over the years, WEX expanded significantly, both in services and geographical reach. The company has diversified into a global provider of payment processing and information management services across various sectors, including vehicle fleet, travel, healthcare, and corporate payments. In 2012 Wright Express rebranded itself as WEX.

WEX provides specialized fleet payment solutions designed to streamline operations for businesses with vehicle fleets. Their services primarily focus on fuel and maintenance payment systems. WEX's fleet cards, provided through a partnership with MasterCard, allow companies to manage fuel purchases and vehicle maintenance expenses efficiently, offering detailed reporting and cost control measures. These cards are accepted at a vast network of fueling and service locations, ensuring accessibility for drivers. WEX's platform integrates data analytics, which helps businesses gain insights into their fleet's spending patterns and efficiency, data that can then be used to improve operations. This service is similar to what companies like FleetCor do, but Wex’s services extend beyond just solutions for vehicle fleets.

Besides fleet fuel cards, WEX Inc. offers a broad range of payment and technology solutions across various sectors. In the corporate payments segment, they provide virtual cards and automated accounts payable solutions, helping businesses streamline their payment processes and improve cash flow management. In the travel and hospitality industry, WEX offers specialized payment solutions that simplify transactions for travel agencies, airlines, and hotels.
