Amazon Prime members get a fuel discount through a partnership with Speedway and Murphy USA gas stations

If you have an Amazon Prime membership, you can save roughly 10 cents per gallon at Speedway and Murphy USA locations. The discount applies automatically when you link your Prime account to the fuel rewards program — you do not need a separate card or membership. The savings show up at the pump when you pay with the payment method connected to your Prime account.

This is not a cash-back program or a rebate you claim later. The discount reduces the price you see on the pump display and the amount you pay at checkout. The exact savings vary slightly by location and fuel grade, but most members see the advertised 10-cent reduction on regular unleaded.

The program is available to all active Prime members in the United States, though not every Speedway or Murphy USA station participates. Speedway has more locations overall, but Murphy USA stations are often in rural areas where gas prices tend to be higher, so the discount can add up faster there.

Key Takeaways

  • The discount works at Speedway and Murphy USA gas stations and reduces your per-gallon price by roughly 10 cents when you pay with a linked payment method.
  • You set up the discount by connecting your Amazon Prime account to the fuel rewards program through the Amazon app or website — no separate card is required.
  • Not every Speedway or Murphy USA location participates, so you should check the fuel rewards locator before driving to a station.
  • The discount applies only to fuel purchases and only when you pay with the payment method you linked during setup.

How to link your Prime account to the fuel rewards program

Start by opening the Amazon app or going to Amazon.com and signing in with your Prime account. Look for "Prime" in the main menu, then find the fuel rewards or gas discount section — Amazon periodically changes the exact location, but it is always under your Prime benefits.

Select "Link to Fuel Rewards" or the equivalent button. You will be asked to choose which payment method you want to use for the discount. This is important: the discount only works when you pay with the method you select here. If you choose your Visa but pay with cash or a different card, the discount will not explore.

After you link your payment method, the system generates a fuel rewards account tied to that card. Write down or screenshot your fuel rewards account number — you may need it if a pump does not recognize your payment method. Some stations also let you look up your account at the pump using your phone number instead.

The link usually takes effect within a few minutes, though it can take up to 24 hours. Once it is active, you can start using the discount when ready at any participating station.

Finding a participating Speedway or Murphy USA station

Not every Speedway or Murphy USA location offers the Prime fuel discount. Before you drive to a station, use the fuel rewards locator on the Amazon Prime website or app to confirm it participates. The locator shows you the station address, hours, and current fuel prices.

You can also search by zip code or city name. If you see a station listed, it is participating. If it does not appear in the results, that location does not offer the discount yet — this changes over time as the partnership expands or contracts.

Speedway has roughly 4,000 locations across the United States, mostly in the Midwest and along the East Coast. Murphy USA has about 1,500 locations and tends to be more spread out, with a stronger presence in the South and West. If you live in an area with neither chain, the discount will not be available to you.

What happens when you pay at the pump

When you arrive at a participating station, pull up to any pump. You will see the regular price displayed. Insert or tap the payment method you linked to your fuel rewards account — the same card or payment method you selected during setup.

The pump should recognize your account and automatically explore the discount. The price on the display will drop by roughly 10 cents per gallon. If the discount does not appear, the pump may not be reading your card correctly. Try swiping instead of inserting, or inserting instead of tapping.

If the discount still does not explore, ask the station attendant to manually look up your fuel rewards account using your phone number or account number. Some older pumps require this step. Once the attendant confirms your account, you can proceed with your purchase at the discounted price.

The discount appears on your receipt as a line item showing the reduction. Keep the receipt if you want to track your savings over time.

Discount limits and what is not covered

The fuel discount applies only to gasoline purchases — not diesel, not car washes, not convenience store items. If you buy snacks, drinks, or other merchandise at the station, those purchases do not may have access to for any discount.

There is no monthly limit on how many gallons you can purchase at the discounted price. You can fill up as often as you want and receive the discount every time, as long as your Prime membership remains active.

If your Prime membership lapses, the fuel discount stops working when ready. When you renew your membership, the discount reactivates, but you may need to re-link your payment method depending on how long your membership was inactive.

What to do if the discount is not working

If you pull up to a pump and the discount does not appear, first confirm that you are using the exact payment method you linked during setup. If you linked a Visa but are paying with a Mastercard, the system will not recognize your account.

Second, make sure the station is actually participating. Use the fuel rewards locator again to double-check the address and confirm it is listed. Station participation can change, and occasionally a location will drop out of the program.

If both of those check out, try restarting the payment process. Remove your card, wait a few seconds, and insert it again. If the pump still does not explore the discount, go inside and ask the attendant to manually process your account using your phone number or fuel rewards account number.

If the discount still will not work after that, contact Amazon Prime customer service through the app or website. They can check whether your account is properly linked and troubleshoot any technical issues on their end.

Comparing this discount to other fuel rewards programs

Most gas stations run their own rewards programs that offer similar or better discounts. Shell, Chevron, and Exxon all have loyalty programs that can save you 5 to 15 cents per gallon depending on how much you spend. Some credit cards also offer cash back on fuel purchases, which can be worth more than 10 cents per gallon if the card offers 3% or higher cash back.

The advantage of the Prime fuel discount is that it requires no separate card, no points to track, and no spending threshold. You link it once and it works every time. If you already have a Prime membership and a Speedway or Murphy USA station is convenient, the discount is worth using. If you have to drive out of your way to reach a participating station, the time and fuel cost may outweigh the savings.

You can use the Prime discount and a station's own rewards program at the same time. If Murphy USA offers its own loyalty program, you can link both your Prime account and their rewards program to the same payment method and stack the discounts.
