Looking for Arco debit cards?

As of July 21st, 2011, Arco debit cards will cease to exist. The card allowed you to avoid the 45-cent debit surcharge at Arco and earned 0.25% rewards, but really, you’re better off with a gas credit card that will give you upwards of 3% on gas as well as rewards in other categories.

Read our blog post about the untimely end of the Arco debit rewards card to learn our analysis of why the card wasn’t that great to begin with, what you should do now that it’s gone, and who’s to blame.

The Arco debit card was nothing exciting to begin with. Yeah, you could avoid the 45-cent surcharge that you’re usually charged when you pay with debit at Arco, but you don’t get any rewards. In fact, based on our analysis, the savings you get from Arco’s cheap gas aren’t as much as what you’d get with a gas card that earns rewards at the pump. And now, sadly, the Arco debit card is no more.

And we’re hearing now that many Arco/Discover debit card users weren’t even notified that the program was being canceled. For our post-mortem of the Arco debit card, check out our blog.
