No, you cannot pay with cash at Costco gas stations.
Costco gas stations only accept credit cards and debit cards with a Visa logo. This policy is in place to streamline transactions and maintain lower prices for members.
If you’re planning to fill up at a Costco gas station, make sure to bring a valid Visa card or a Costco membership card that is linked to a debit card.
Remember, you can’t use cash, checks, or other cards like Mastercard or American Express. This can be a little inconvenient, especially if you usually pay in cash.
For members who may not have a Visa card, consider getting a prepaid Visa card. This allows you to take advantage of Costco’s low gas prices while still using cash to fund your purchase.
Many members appreciate the significant savings on gas, so finding a way to use a Visa card can be worth the effort.
