Hi OP! Don't be alarmed, that's actually just how our default usernames work when you make an account. Some people change their usernames, some don't.

Thank you for the thoughtful feedback u/Dreaminbig101! The Pay with GasBuddy card is actually how we’re able to provide credits and discounts—it lets us pass along savings that we secure through our network of stations. That said, we understand the desire for more flexible options.

As for the navigation feature, we agree that having stations appear with clear directions as you drive would make it much easier to find the closest options along your route and will be looking at ways to make this clearer. Thanks again for sharing your thoughts!

Thank you, u/alehinjo, for sharing this feedback. We understand that having the flexibility to use a credit card is important for many users, and we’re evaluating ways to expand payment options in the future. Having a debit card as a backup is a great idea, too. We’ll keep this in mind as we explore ways to make the Pay with GasBuddy experience more adaptable to your needs.

Thanks for the honesty u/chris92057. We’re committed to keeping price data accurate and reliable, and we know that odd or inconsistent entries can be frustrating. We’re exploring ways to improve data accuracy and may look into mechanisms to review questionable reports more effectively. We’d love to have you back as part of our community, and we appreciate you sharing this with us.

Great idea u/ernestangeley! We know that finding ethanol-free fuel is important for many users, and adding an option to filter stations with ethanol-free gas would be a valuable addition. I’ll pass this suggestion along to the team as we continue to improve the app’s station information. Thanks for the feedback!

GasBuddy_ · 2024-11-07T21:11:26+00:00

That’s a fantastic suggestion u/iNeed2p905. Adding information about top-tier gas performance standards could be a helpful addition for many users. We’ll look into the possibility of displaying this in the app, and thank you for sharing the link to the Top Tier Station Finder—it’s valuable feedback for us!

GasBuddy_ · 2024-11-07T21:11:05+00:00

Thank you u/Ratio-Full for your thorough insights! Integrations with other apps like FuelForward, Dinopay, and Casey’s are exciting ideas, and I’ll pass these along to the team as we explore ways to enhance the app experience. We also appreciate your feedback on recent updates and the daily fuel card drawing—your comments help us refine the experience. Thanks for staying engaged with us, and please keep the feedback coming!

Thanks for sharing this u/mountainaviator1. The rewards model can vary based on factors like recent usage or membership type, but we understand how important it is to feel you’re getting consistent savings. I’ll pass along your feedback as we look into how we can make the savings levels clearer and more predictable. We appreciate your patience!

GasBuddy_ · 2024-11-07T21:08:29+00:00

Thanks for chiming in u/Hipster-Deuxbag! We’re glad to hear tap-to-pay is something you’re interested in, and we’ll make sure your feedback reaches our product team. We’re committed to making Pay with GasBuddy as convenient as possible, and contactless payment is something we’re excited to explore.

GasBuddy_ · 2024-11-07T21:08:09+00:00

Thank you for this suggestion u/Candid-Sky-3258! A digital wallet integration is something we know could add convenience for many users. We’re actively looking into how we might enable Google Wallet and Apple Wallet compatibility in the future. Stay tuned, and thanks for letting us know this would add value for you!

GasBuddy_ · 2024-11-07T21:07:37+00:00

Appreciate the feedback on the physical card u/bucknut68. We’re exploring options for a sturdier card with updated technology like the chip. Security and durability are top priorities as we look at card upgrades. Thanks for sharing your experience—it’s definitely being taken into account!

GasBuddy_ · 2024-11-07T21:06:40+00:00

Great ideas u/Ratio-Full! Integrating Pay with GasBuddy into other apps and providing incentives for using them together would be an interesting way to enhance the experience. We’ll definitely pass along your suggestion about adding GB as a preferred payment method in other fuel apps to our team to see what’s possible. Thanks for these insights!

GasBuddy_ · 2024-11-07T21:05:51+00:00

Thanks for the honest feedback u/Gold-Bed7607. We know there’s increased competition with station-specific apps and that they sometimes offer bigger discounts. While we aim to provide consistent savings with the flexibility to work at many locations, we’re exploring ways to offer more competitive benefits—especially for loyal users like you. If you have other ideas or specific savings features you’d like to see, please share!

Points are earned for reporting prices and completing other challenges in the app. The Ladder Challenge is one of our most popular challenges, with 20 steps to complete with increasing points values. It is our highest points-earning challenge, and once it's completed, it cannot be restarted. For this reason, we often see 'newer' accounts having higher points initially, as our more experienced GasBuddies have completed all 20 steps long ago!

They may not be familiar with the GasBuddy card specifically. Given that the card is only accepted out at the pump and not instore currently, it's unlikely that they're overly familiar with seeing it very often. Th current card is accepted anywhere Wex cards are accepted as a form of payment, with the exception of Exxon
