[Reposting this as it’s confirmed to work multiple times. Apparently, you can even buy a single $100 Speedy gift card and get two $5 credits, or you can probably go higher too. Max out your Discover cards now for close to a 25% discount if Speedy is you go-to gas station. Chase Freedom too.]
The Offer
- Purchase $50 in Speedway gift cards from Speedway between 2/1 and 2/29, and receive a free $5 Speedway gift card.
- This offer can be found and activated in your Speedway Rewards account.
The big question here is whether this is a one-time deal or it can be repeated for $5 with each $50 gift card purchase. Let us know if you more info on this.
Stacking the Deal
Aside from the $5 bonus card, you can stack two other deal here:
- Get 5% back with Discover (doubled at year’s end for many), or 5x points with Freedom; both cards offer 5% back on gas this quarter
- Get some Speedy Reward Points as well with the purchase
Our Verdict
If this is scalable, then you can lock in over 20% discount on your Speedway gas for the year by purchasing $1500 in Speedway gift cards, getting 10% back with Discover, getting $150 in bonus gift cards, and getting some extra Speedy points for the purchase. It could be that Speedy gift cards can be used at Hess gas stations as well.
If it’s not scalable, then it’s just a nice $5 deal.
Thanks to ersan191 for posting about this deal on Reddit and for the picture as well
Hey Doc,
This offer is back again for year 2017. You might want to re-post it.

Also a DP which is same like last year. I bought $200 Speedway Cash gift card and i got “4” $5 gift card coupons.
Thanks for sharing!
Thanks, will do.
So I signed up online and bought a $50 gas card in store got a voucher for a $5 gas card but no speedy rewards points for purchasing the card only when I used the card to buy gas I got the normal points. I did use my Chase Freedom so I get 5% back on that.
You have to buy in multiples of $100 to get the speedy points…1500 per $100
How much does 1500 speedy points equal dollar wise? Can they be used to purchase more gc?
.0001 – you can get more speedway gift cards or applebees amazon etc. You can get a $10 speedway care for like 10500 points – so after 10 gift cards not including gas/food purchases.
sorry 7 gc not 10
I think you mean .001 (1500 points = $1.50), correct? That’s what your math indicates. Although it might be ridiculous I was hoping for .01 (1500 points = $15). That would change it from a good deal to a deal none of us could pass up. I see that earlier you asked about ABC. I sold to them one time a while ago and it went fine. Wouldn’t you only be making a 2-3 percent though as they are paying 92% on Speedway? I guess if you include the cash back from Freedom or Discover it’s a decent deal.
Eric, the problem with cardcash is they reject your sales for random unclear reasons. It’s a hassle to pay for the stamps and get it shipped all the way and then they reject it and you have to wait to get it back for two weeks. They have some really unreliable system.
I’m pretty sure I’ve only sold to Cardpool twice and one of the times something similar occurred. So it’s not only CardCash that pulls that crap. Also, he asked about ABC, not CardCash. I know they are the same company but are you sure the same people handle both?
Yes. Same people handle both.
Well to each to their own. I
‘ve never had problem with cardpool even in thousands of dollars of transaction.
Cardcash, even two cards of $50 get rejected for some unknown reason that they wouldn’t clarify.
Yes .001 – put in too many zeros. Not really looking to make money as much as complete upgrade bonus spend on surpass. Looking to get this done quick needing to get some Chase cards next month before new rules go into place.
Thanx Marc, i’ll do that tomorrow.
Where do you activate it online or on the app? I would like to take advantage of this promotion but can not find it.
Do you have to activate the deal at Speedy Rewards online and then go into the gas station?
\
I think it’s activated in-app
You can do it online too.
Ok here is the deal you can buy any amount and you will get the $5 code for every $50 spent.
These $5 can be used on the speedy cash card and do not need to be used on the black food cards. Tell the person to read further on the print out…my chick told me she has been telling everyone the black cards only because she did not read the whole thing.
You can load them all onto one card. You could even add it on top of the card you just purchased if you want. I have been adding all of the bonuses to one card. Just tell them to add $20 or whatever and then have them use the $5 codes to pay for it. If they say you can’t just tell them to do it and it will work.
Hope this helps….anyone used ABC gift cards for sales? Looks like the best option for speedway but I know they are also cardcash who I am not a huge fan of.
Thanks
Completed this yesterday (2/10). Got two $50 GC combined on one card with the $10 bonus. In hindsight, I missed the Speedy points by not buying $100 GC all at once.
I signed up today and got the offer. I used their website to sign up and active the offer (not the app).
I went to Speedway and bought a $100 Speedway Fuel & Merchandise Gift Card. I received two tickets for $5 gift cards. The woman working at the store told me that I could not combine the tickets… I was not allowed to get one $10 gift card with the two $5 tickets. Also, she told me that I could only get the Food & Merchandise Gift Card (can not be used to buy gas) with the tickets. I noticed on the Food & Merchandise Gift Card that it says that only one prepaid Food & Merchandise card can be used per transaction.
One good thing… I noticed that this store had gift cards, including EBAY gift cards.
Says 2/19 in the article but the offer says 2/29
Thanks Mark, let me fix that.
No Speedy Rewards Points when you purchase Speedy GCs.
Buy Speedy Cash GCs – can be used for everything at Speedway.
Speedy Food and Merchandise GCs must be used only for food or merchandise.
Dukie02 above says he earned 3500 Speedy Rewards points when he purchased $200 Speedy GCs and a $50 Netflix GCs… does that mean all the points he earned came just from the Netflix GCs?? Seems like a lot of points.
Can anyone else shed light on if we will earn Speedy Rewards points when we purchase the Speedy GCs?
I did my purchases at 2 diff stations. One was $100 Speedy Cash and $50 Netflix, which earned 2500 points, and the other was just $100 Speedy Cash which earned 2500. There was a promo on the door that said 1500 pts for a $100 Speedy Cash purchase. So I guess Netflix earned 1000 pts.
Sorry, second purchase was $100 and earned 1500 points, I believe. I’ll check receipts at home tonight.
It was 1500 for the $100 (plus two $5 print outs), and 2500 for the $100 Cash Card plus the $50 Netflix. On the $5 receipts, it says “$5 Speedy Cash Food & Merchandise or Speedy Cash Gift Card.” My understanding is that Speedy Cash Gift Cards are the ones that can be used for either gas or merchandise purchases.
Their website says you earn 1500 bonus points when you buy a $100 Speedway Gift Card. I saw this by selecting “Speedy Rewards”, “Earn”, then “Bonus Points”
That is the best way to earn points they give 1500 for $100 speedy cash you get 0 points when you buy fuel cards since you get 3 cents off per gallon.
I bought two $100 Speedway gift cards last night at two different stations, plus a $50 Netflix card. I received four $5 gift card print outs. I also received 3500 Speedy points, which is nearly enough for an additional gift card. About 15% off, including quarterly cc promos. Now I just need to see if all the $5 promos can be combined into a single gift card, rather than dealing with lots of small value cards.
Can you please check if you can use those Speedway GCs to buy Visa GCs? At least this way, you will break even and we can maximize the Discover and Chase 1st quarter bonuses. Thanks in advance.
You cannot (at least not in this area; not sure if that is regional). Also, they only sell $25 (and possibly $50) Visa cards. The fees would kill any deals there. Speedway gas cards to have a fairly high resale value, so with the double cash back and URs, you can make out some.
I cashed in my points for 2 $10 gc a few weeks back and just asked for 1 $20 GC and then gave them the 2 coupons and it worked that way so you should be good.
