Fuel Cards

[Lee A.]

Can someone please educate me regarding the various fuel credit cards I see various FBOs participating in  

UVAir

Epic

Bravo

etc.  

Any reason such as a fuel discount for an individual to use one of these?

I think most of them only apply to JetA

Bulk or fleet fuel pricing!

Normally cost plus x¢. It's amazing the delta between retail and bulk pricing. 

Right now jet A cost about $2 per gallon. Some fbos will retail around $7 per gallon. 

I have not looked at the delta with 100LL.

It's been a while since I analyzed it, but the reason I dropped the idea was that unless you fly a LOT you don't rack up enough points/discounts on a specific card to make it worthwhile. Seems like most airports I fly to have a different vendor. While the annual total fuel bill might be enough it isn't (for me) when I spread it across airboss/uvair etc.
