The new card can be used by customers to pay and manage both their fuel and merchandise, while earning points by using the card.

Cardholders can earn 50 points by spending per dollar through card for purchases at Speedway and ten points per dollar on all other purchases.

In addition, customers who spend $500 or more within the first three billing cycles will be eligible for 25,000 bonus points.

Speedway president Tony Kenney said: "The card will provide our customers a simple and straight-forward method to make a payment while earning Speedy Rewards loyalty points faster than ever."

As the Speedy Rewards members’ numbers are enclosed within the magnetic stripe and the bar code is printed on the back of the credit card, customers can just use a single card at fuelling station and at store, thus eliminating the need to carry multiple cards.

First Bankcard president Stephen F Eulie said: "First Bankcard works closely with our partners to understand their customers’ needs and deliver customized solutions that benefit our partners and ultimately their customers."
