Earn up to $1,800 in statement credits
Activate this offer by 5/15/2025 Earn $100 in statement credits when you spend $1,000 – $1,999.99 each month or earn $200 in statement credits when you spend $2,000 or more each month on eligible gas station, grocery store, and restaurant purchases. Activation required. Offer ends 12/31/2025. Totally jealous about this. I have not received any offers yet, and applied in early December. How long would you expect to have to wait to get an offer like this? Was this in email or in the website?
I spend over $1k per month in groceries, but no gas or restaurant spending - maybe I'll spend a few dollars in those categories to see if it helps.
Yeah, too bad the SYW card is so YMMV. You're jelly of me, I'm jelly of those that still get the $250 (in points) for $1k online spend. I need that one, especially since the kids will want the $450 SWITCH 2 soon! lol. Hang in there. I started getting great offers before my intro $225 bonus was even completed. So, you never know. Look the 1st and the 15th of each month. My offers are always via e-mail.

I'm not sure if it really helps, but I had read somewhere to try to spend money in each of those categories each month. I was using it as my groceries and gas card, but I have the Redstone card so I was using that for restaurant. As I recall, I used SYW for one or two fast food purchases just to get something spent in that category when I hadn't started getting offers yet.
Again, I dunno if that really did anything, but it's worth a shot! I think my offers started around month 4. I did get the huge points offer for online spend that people love, but I missed the email until there was only a few days left, so be sure to watch out for the emails around the 1st and 15th of each month, and maybe make them a "favorite" so that they are highlighted in some way so you don't miss them!
Good luck!

Potential Others
-Shell Pay in Store (haven't been able to test yet, most of the Shells in my area don't sell Gift Cards)
I tried Shell Pay at the gas pump the other day and it didn't seem to count. Transaction was 3/28 and it posted by 4/3, maybe earlier. As of 4/10 I don't have my points, which I would have had it counted.
Also I guess there is like a Phillips 66 mobile payment app? Not sure whether that is usable.

If the listed merchant category for the transaction is "Vehicle Services-AUTOMATED GAS DISPENSER" you should be GTG. If not then it's a gamble.
Oops, I think I was being confusing there. What I meant was that it didn't count as online (seemingly).
