The Best Gas Rebate Card Offers Available

4 minute read

By Christopher Brown

Getting the most bang for your buck is about more than price comparisons and restrictive budgets. While we recommend educated purchases and fiscal responsibility, there’s always room for more savings. 

Gas rebate cards are another way to cut down on costs, especially for those that spend a lot of time on the road. But even if you don’t, Americans that aren’t earning rewards on their purchases are leaving money on the table. 

Today, we’ll take a closer look at gas rebate cards, explore the best ways to use them, and highlight a few of the best options available today. 

Why We Love Gas Rebate Cards

It’s true, we love gas rebate cards! Signing up for a credit card that earns you rewards or cash when you pay for gas stretches your transportation budget even further. A lot of them offer generous introductory offers designed to pry your business away from the competition. 

Sadly, not all rewards cards are created equally. Some use restrictive redemption guidelines, while others charge an annual fee. It’s important to remember then, that getting the most out of a rebate card comes down to picking the right one. With that fresh in our minds, let’s take a look at some of the best gas rebate card offers available right now.

American Express SimplyCash Preferred Card

Annual fee: $119.88

Introductory Offer: Earn up to $400 in statement credits in the first 10 months. 

Rewards Rate: 4% cash back on gas and grocery purchases. 

Before you write this one off for having an annual fee, consider the additional benefits awaiting potential American Express SimplyCash Preferred Card customers. Using it at the grocery store or at the gas pump will earn you 4%. The card also comes with countless coverage insurance benefits including travel medical insurance, flight delay insurance, delayed baggage insurance, and more.

Citi Premier Card

Annual fee: $95

Introductory Offer: Earn 60,000 bonus points when you spend $4,000 in purchases within the first three months. 

Rewards Rate: 3 points per dollar spent at restaurants, supermarkets, gas stations, hotels, and air travel. 1 point per dollar on all other eligible purchases. 

When redeemed for cash back, ThankYou points are only worth $0.01. But, the points go much further when used to redeem tangible benefits, like flights and hotel stays. It’s why frequent travelers love the Citi Premier Card. It helps them earn savings on the things they love most, while buying essentials that they were already going to buy.

Platinum Rewards Visa Signature Card

Annual fee: $0

Introductory Offer: Earn 15,000 bonus points when you spend $1,500 in the first 90 days. 

Rewards Rate: 5x rewards on gas paid at the pump, 3x points at the supermarket, and 1x points on everything else.

No fees, and no extra fees for using your card outside the U.S. makes the Platinum Rewards Visa Signature Card an attractive choice. Points are redeemable for services, products, gift cards and travel discounts. Points can’t be directly redeemed for cash, and point value can fluctuate depending on each redemption.

Wyndham Rewards Earner Card

Annual fee: $0

Introductory Offer: Get 45,000 bonus points when you spend $1,000 on purchases in the first 90 days. 

Rewards Rate: 6x points per dollar spent on Hotels By Wyndham and gas, 4x points per dollar spent on restaurant and grocery purchases, 1x point per dollar on all other purchases. 

Another zero-fee rewards card built for those that travel. Using the card will earn you points on every purchase, but you’ll earn more rewards when you purchase gas or Wyndham hotel stays. Card holders also get free fraud liability protection, discounts on Wyndham hotel stays, an anniversary bonus, and unlimited earning.

Techron Advantage Visa Card

Annual fee: $0

Introductory Offer: Earn up to $0.55/gal in fuel credits with a new Techron Advantage Visa Credit Card. 

Rewards Rate: Earn up to $0.8/gal in Fuel Credits every fill-up, every time. Plus, earn up to an extra $0.10/gal in Fuel Credits on all qualifying purchases including dining, grocery, and travel. 

The Techron Advantage Visa Card lets savvy drivers earn cash towards free fuel on a long list of qualifying purchases. Add to that a $o annual fee and an introductory offer that could see you earn as much as $0.55/gal in Fuel Credits and you have a serious contender for the best gas rebate card in the county.

Wells Fargo Autograph Card

Annual fee: $0

Introductory Offer: Earn 20,000 bonus points when you spend $1,000 in the first three months. 

Rewards Rate: Earn 3x points for every dollar you spend on dining, travel, gas, transit, phone plans, and more. 

The Wells Fargo Autograph Card offers a ton of value without asking a lot in return. No annual fees, and a 0% introductory APR for the first 12 months render it one of the best options available today. Use your accrued points to help pay for travel, cash them in for gift cards, or redeem them to help pay for qualifying purchases.
