Best credit card to use at Buc-ee's.
Gas
Buc-ee's is a Texas-born travel center chain known for enormous footprints (often 50+ gas pumps and 50,000+ square feet of store), branded jerky and snacks, and a cult road trip following. The chain has been expanding aggressively into the Southeast and beyond. Fuel purchases at Buc-ee's pumps code as gas, while everything bought inside (food, apparel, souvenirs) typically codes as convenience store or general merchandise. Buc-ee's does not run its own credit card, so a strong gas-category card is the cleanest way to earn rewards at the pump.
