Gas
Murphy USA runs about 1,700 low-price gas and convenience stations across the U.S., many of them sited in Walmart parking lots under the Murphy USA or Murphy Express banners. The chain competes primarily on price per gallon. Fuel codes as gas at the pump, so any gas category bonus card will earn its full multiplier. The Murphy Drive Rewards loyalty app and Murphy USA Visa add per-gallon discounts that can stack with a major-issuer gas card if used carefully.
