There are four main credit cards offered by Shell in association with Citibank. Two are designed for personal use and the other two for business use.

The cards carry the standard benefits and features like any other gas credit card so there is not much to get over exited about. You can see the similarities and differences between the cards listed below.

Shell Personal Credit Cards
Both the Shell card and the Shell Select member card share the following features:
• No Liability on unauthorized charges
• You can access your account anytime online at no cost
• Flexible payment terms
• Cards can be used at ATMs subject to cash advance fees
• The cards are accepted at thousands of convenient locations
• You can pay at the pump for your convenience

Here are the major differences:

Shell Card:

Annual Fee
• None
APR
• 22.49%
Cash Back on Hotels and Motels
• Sorry
Cash back on Airlines and Rentals
• Sorry
Emergency Cash Benefit
• Sorry
Travel Reservations Services
• Sorry

Shell Select Member Card:

Annual Fee
• $29
APR
• 22.49%
Cash Back on Hotels and Motels
• 10%
Cash back on Airlines and Rentals
• 5%
Emergency Cash Benefit
• $1000
Travel Reservations Services
• Available

By paying the extra $29 per annum, I think the extra benefits you receive with the Shell Select Card are well worth it. I am sure you can earn the annual fee back through the savings you make over the 12 month period (Once you use your card regularly enough).

Shell Business Credit Cards

With the Shell business cards, companies can manage their fleet more effectively by saving money and controlling expenses.

The benefits that are common to both Shell business credit cards are as follows:

• 24/7 online account access which is free of charge
• Option to choose flexible payment terms
• The Shell business cards are accepted at thousands locations
• Pay at the pump convenience

Shell Fleet Credit Card:

Annual Fee
• None
APR
• 22.49%
Option to Revolve
• Yes
Fuel Discounts
• Sorry
Assigned Card Per Driver
• Yes
Detailed Monthly Transactions
• Yes
Fuel and Oil Only
• No
Security of assigned
Driver ID Numbers
• Sorry
Fuel only
• Yes
Spending Restrictions
• None

Shell Fleet Plus Card:

Annual Fee
• $0 Introductory for 12 months
APR
• None
Option to Revolve
• Sorry
Fuel Discounts
• 1.5% – 3%
Assigned Card Per Driver
• Yes
Detailed Monthly Transactions
• Yes
Fuel and Oil Only
• Yes
Security of assigned
Driver ID Numbers
• Yes
Fuel only
• Yes
Spending Restrictions
• None

That is pretty much it for the shell cards, nothing to scream about, but still they are very solid gas credit cards that would do what they say on the tin.

If none of the above features make you tingle with delight, you can also review other gas credit cards.

There are others amazing offers on the market with benefits such as:

• Double cash back bonuses
• Unlimited cash rewards
• Double gas rebates for two months
• $600 statement credit when you lease selected vehicles

…and many more.

Don't limit your options just to the Shell cards, explore what is out there, then compare, review and apply for your gas credit card.
