Re: Best Gas card other than NRA?

I use BCP unless Disco or Freedom have it as quarterly. Only 3%, but no max limit, that's really pretty good.

My understanding is that the Penfed card is not a true 5% card.  Works out to 4.15%, due to the points value only being $.0083.  Costco is a great card for gas, if you already have a membership.  Only 4%, but their gas prices are great to begin with.  


Interesting.  Spent $70 last month and received $3.50 in credit.


Did you actually receive $3.50, or does it just show 350 points?

 

You DO get 5 points per dollar, the difference comes when it's time to redeem.  Each point has a value of only $0.0083, vs the typical $0.01.

Ducks Unlimited is NOT NRA though.  Not sure if that is what you were saying, just wanted to clarify.

The 5% is redeemed as a statement credit and $3.50 is what posted.

I would think a 5% cashback card for gas even at a $6k cap would be enough for almost anyone unless you're a road warrior because $500/month is a lot.

Hey there,

 

I was hoping if someone could help me out. Is there another card that will give 5% cash back on gas besides the NRA Visa card?

 


If you are eligible for USAA membership, the cashback rewards Amex is 5% up to $3000/year.  I got it to fill up my motorhomeSmiley Surprised

BoA Cash Rewards nets 5.25% cash back on gas for Platinum Honors members.

 

Discover IT has gas as one of their rotating 5% quarterly bonuses, including this quarter.  If you've had the card less than a year you'll get an additional 5% back on your 1st anniversary.

People buy many things at gas stations besides gas. I got Chester's chicken and Godfather's Pizza for my family the other night and got 10% back from Disco Smiley Happy.

When my wife worked at a current job she was in charge of ordering the catering for groups of people. She was able to use her card and be reimbursed by the company. This one catering place shared the same building as a gas stations and was owned by the same family I believe. 

 

As it turned out the catering company was coded as gas and she used her AMEX BCP for the charge .the catering bill was over $4,000. That was a nice cash bvack month!

Re: Best Gas card other than NRA?

I might get the Penfed, I mean 4.15% isn't that bad, better than the Costco 4% and 3% from Bank of America cash rewards. The 5% makes a big difference from 4.15. We will see.
