do we have to do or pretend to buy anything to get this? or this is just at initial log in?


Also curious about this. From the screenshots posted, I cannot tell if this is on the hone page of a FuelRewards.com, if if I have to do something special on the site to see this (outside of just logging in).

Re: shopping cart trick for Fuel Rewards Network Mastercard

I signed up today for their rewards program, creating a login.  Then I left the webpage.  I then went back to the page and logged in.  Immediately after logging in, I received the pre-approval pop-up.

I guess it comes down to the person.

 

For example. I'll use the lowest category. 5 cents for every 100$ spent. Now say I make a purchase of $1,000.

That's 50 cents off for gas. 

 

Last fill up. 

3.45 x 12 gallons = 41.4

Example fill up.

2.95 x 12 gallons = 35.4

 

So is it worth it to you? 

I'm sure you could MS to make it sweeter. But that's time & money.

Re: shopping cart trick for Fuel Rewards Network Mastercard

thanks ...so that discount is then per gallon on 1 fill? ...Lets say I spend 200$ would this mean next gaz fill is 10cents less per gallon?  Then it resets and starts again?

Correct. Resets after you use it.

But the program itself is nice. A few months ago you'd get 50 cents off when you bought a 5qt of Pennzoil motor oil.

Coke Rewards program has 45 points for 10 cents off. 

 

So it's a useful program.

Re: shopping cart trick for Fuel Rewards Network Mastercard

I just got my 3rd pop-up for this since joining a month ago. But i didn't take it for the same reason-too many new TL's recently. Plus I think I've reached my internal limit with Comenity Bank for now.
