Texaco Gas Cards

From LoveToKnow Creditcards

The very first Texaco gas cards attached to credit lines were issued in 1914. In present day there are a few different cards to choose from for use at Texaco, Chevron and other participating gas stations.

Gas Pump

Texaco and Chevron

Texaco cards oftentimes feature Chevron logos as well as Texaco logos because the gas cards can be used at either station. This makes the cards even more convenient because they can be used at more gas stations than they would be if they were only for use at specific Texaco stations.

Options for Texaco Gas Cards

Texaco issues several gas card versions. Applicants can choose from several different options when applying for a card.

Personal Gas Cards

The Chevron Texaco gas card allows cardholders to utilize a revolving credit account in order to make fuel purchases and buy items within Chevron and Texaco convenience stores. Cards can also be used to pay for auto repairs and maintenance within the stations offering these services.

Special features available with Chevron Texaco gas cards include:

  • Generous rewards program for fuel purchases during introductory period
  • Roadside assistance program with free introductory membership
  • Cash advance capability at participating ATMs for approved cardholders
  • Security features including zero fraud liability

Some of the special features of these gas cards only last for a limited amount of time, and not every cardholder is automatically approved for ATM cash access capability.

Premium Personal Gas Card

The Premium gas card has all the benefits of the personal gas card, but also includes some additional benefits:

  • Travel insurance
  • Discounted hotel rates and car rentals
  • 5 percent rebate program for purchases made on the card

There is an annual fee for this credit card. Additionally, the 5 percent rebate program may not apply to every purchase made on the card but instead applies to specific types of purchases.

Chevron Texaco Visa Card

The Chevron Texaco Visa card features a Visa logo, making it available for use worldwide with any merchant accepting Visa credit cards. This means that cardholders do not have to restrict their card use to fuel and convenience store purchases.

Benefits accompanying this card include:

  • An impressive introductory rebate program for fuel purchases
  • Generous fuel purchase rebate program after introductory period expires
  • Fuel credits for purchases made through the card
  • No annual fee

This card has a lower interest rate than the personal gas card and premium gas card. A three-tier interest rate system determines the actual interest rate an approved applicant will receive for a Chevron Texaco Visa card.

Apply for a Card

Applicants who do not qualify for a Chevron Texaco Visa card may be offered a personal gas card instead. In addition to having an acceptable credit score, applicants must also fall into these categories:

  • Eighteen years or older
  • Applicant must not have applied for a gas card in the last six months and received a denial
  • No bankruptcies on applicant's credit report

Apply for a card by filling out an application at a participating gas station or by accessing the online application. Be prepared to furnish the following information:

  • Contact information:
    • Name
    • Address
    • Phone number
    • Previous address information if at present address for less than two years
  • Verification Information:
    • Birth date
    • Social Security number
    • Drivers license number
    • Mother's maiden name

Applicants are also asked to decide on an optional credit protection program. This program costs money and protects cardholders in the event of a variety of financial emergencies.

Do not apply for any of the available Texaco gas cards until after you have thoroughly read the terms and conditions of the accounts. If you do not take the time to read the interest rates and fees associated with the cards then you may be surprised when your first statement arrives.

Receive a Decision

Applications are approved of denied based largely on the applicant's credit score and information contained within the credit report. Not all applications are approved.
