Best credit cards for gas

A gas card pays extra rewards at gas stations. Some pay 3% or more back, compared with 1% to 2% on a flat-rate card.

Some cards also count electric vehicle charging. Others limit the rate to certain stations or cap the yearly spend.

These cards help if you drive often. If you drive little, a flat-rate card is usually simpler.

We list 3 cards here. 2 have no annual fee. The largest welcome bonus we track is $300 on the Blue Cash Preferred.

A card is listed here when the issuer states an earn rate of 3% or more on gas. Sorted by highest gas rate first, then lowest annual fee. Facts match the main cards page.

Common questions

Do gas cards work at every station?
Most work at any station that codes as a gas station. A few are tied to one fuel brand. Check the issuer terms.
Do these cards count electric vehicle charging?
Some do. The issuer page says whether charging earns the same rate as gas.

Card terms come from each issuer and can change. Check the issuer page before you apply. SwitchWize may earn a fee if you apply through a link marked as an offer.
