On the front it looks like it is only good on Amoco Ultimate gas which I found is only sale at stations in these 5 states:
Works for any type of gas, you just get $5 worth of credit when you plug it into the autopay device. FWIW, when I plugged it in, it asked for a PIN number, so I just hit enter, but it gave me an error message. Then I plugged in four zeroes, figuring that it just wanted some type of four digit input and it worked.

Wish I knew this earlier, maybe will try next time. I stopped today at an Arco / am/pm mini market and tried to use. I took it inside and handed to the clerk. He didn't know what to do because instead of a 4 digit pin it had that long number on it. He got the manager who went into a back room and called the headquarters 1 800 #. After about 5 - 10 minutes of me just standing there he comes back and says sorry they're not set up to take those type of cards.

Sorry I should have put the info in my earlier post, I'll edit it with the PIN info.

I tried the four zero method Friday and it didn't work. I've failed at 2 Arcos now, the other being the employees didn't know what to do with it. I will have to save it and try it at an Arco elsewhere.

Hmmm...not sure what else to try. The four zero method worked for me in the self pay island.

Congrats. I'm still hoping for the "come pick up your Jag" latter.
