CITGO introduces new mobile payment option within loyalty app
PlusPAY adds direct‑from‑bank ACH payments, faster checkout and fuel discounts for Club CITGO users.
CITGO Petroleum Corporation has expanded its loyalty ecosystem with the launch of CITGO PlusPAY, a new mobile payment feature integrated into the Club CITGO app. The ACH‑based system allows customers to link a bank account, pay directly from their phone, track transactions and automatically receive loyalty rewards at participating locations.
The company said the feature responds to growing demand for digital, flexible and low‑fee payment alternatives. With PlusPAY, customers can complete purchases without using credit cards or cash, while benefiting from discounts applied at the pump or in-store.
Joey Low, Manager of Marketing and Loyalty Programs at CITGO, said the system was built with security at its core. “This architecture provides robust fraud protection and identity verification, eliminating the necessity for physical currency and offering customers a streamlined, digitally secure method for their fuel or in-store purchases,” he said.
PlusPAY offers users a minimum reward of 10 cents per gallon on transactions up to 30 gallons. New customers can receive four 25‑cent‑per‑gallon fill‑ups as an introductory incentive. The company also said the system reduces transaction‑related fees for participating retailers.
The rollout of PlusPAY reflects CITGO’s broader effort to modernize its payment options and deepen engagement through the Club CITGO loyalty program. The company said the initiative is aimed at giving customers a more reliable, secure and rewarding digital payment experience across its retail network.
