• What’s Best Credit Card For Buying Gasoline?

    Posted by Hobart on January 1, 2023 at 2:11 pm

    We are traveling in our vehicle on a road trip which requires lots of gas.

    What’s the best card to get that will earn travel points (i.e. air miles, etc) for future international travel?

    Right now we don’t have any cards except for a debit, and we just closed a Visa (both through a credit union).

    First of all never close personal cards if there is no fee.

    Credit history is important.

    Wyndham Business Earner Card gets you 8x on gas.

    Not transferable, but the card comes with a ton of other benefits that make it worth keeping.

    Otherwise, Citi Premier gets 3x.

    I love my Wyndham Business Earner.

    Easy 8x on gas, which is great for work trips.

    If you’re close to Kroger stores, I use my grocery cards to buy gift cards to Amazon, Target, etc for my usual spending.

    They have occasional 4X fuel points promos, so buying $250 in gift cards gets you $1/gallon off for up to 35 gallons (if you use the full amount you basically get 14% back on gift cards plus whatever earn rate for grocery).

    You won’t earn miles but Costco Visa will save you the most amount of money on gas.

    You get 4% back on gas, plus you will probably save 10-20 cents per gallon at Costco which is probably worth more than the miles.
