Does anyone have this card and currently buy their gas at Sam's Club? Penfed does not have the answer, nor did the 1-800 sams customer service in regards to these gas purchases qualifying for the 5%. I don't want to sign up for not. Please only respond if you currently use your 5% card for sam's club gas purchases. Many thanks

But for an answer. To my knowledge Sams only takes discover cards. they do take visa debt buy not credit... so likely you can't use a visa CC to buy gas there... so i would assume that since you can't use the card there it won't qualify for the 5%

Actually, Sam's Club only accepts MasterCard credit card.

So you can use Walmart gift cards at Sam's?


If so that's awesome

I haven't paid attention to if they accept Discover (I'll take your word for it) but Sam's stores ALSO accept MC..I just used it the other day.

Sam's gas station accepts all credit cards.

I've used my Visa and MC at the Sam's gas station. MC in the store.

I know Amex is not accepted in the store..though I think the gas stations accept it?

OP, while I don't have the card and can't help you with your Q, I can tell you that whenever I use my CC at Sam's station, the transaction is listed under "Gas" purchases. Not sure if it helps, but if the card gives you 5% on gas purchases, I don't see why it won't qualify.

Gas pumps at sams takes multiple cc brands. This is why I was so specific in my op. I was looking simply for an individual who has the penfed gas card and fills their tank at sams and answer. Sams/costco etc are not always termed gas for pump purchases at these type of establishments.

I just got the card myself

Haven't even gotten gas yet


SAMs gas isn't usually that much cheaper is it?

The SAMs is Denham is inconvenient for gas and there's a cheaper station by my house, but last time I used my Amex at the local place, it stopped at 50 bucks so I'm not going there anymore
