Here’s the short version: if you have a PorterFuel Card, every In-Network gallon you buy in October earns you an extra 5¢ back. That’s on top of the discount you already get at the pump. There’s nothing to sign up for, and we’ll pay you back by November 10, 2026.
Same truck. Same route. Same stops. Just more money back.

What Is the October Fuel Card Rebate?
The October fuel card rebate is a limited-time bonus from Porter Freight Funding for PorterFuel Card customers. For every gallon you buy at an In-Network location in October, you earn an extra 5¢ back.
It stacks on top of your regular In-Network fuel discount. So you’re not trading one deal for another. You’re getting both.
Think of it this way: you’re buying the fuel anyway. This month, you get paid for it.
How Does the Rebate Work?
It takes three steps, and you’re probably already doing all of them.
- Fuel In-Network. Fill up at any In-Network location between October 1 and 31.
- Earn 5¢ back. Every In-Network gallon earns an extra 5¢, on top of your regular discount.
- Get paid. Your rebate is paid back to you by November 10, 2026.
No forms. No enrollment. No codes to remember at the pump.
Where Can I Fuel to Earn the Rebate?
Only gallons bought at In-Network locations count toward the October rebate. Here’s the full list.
Major Chains
- TA / Petro (including TA Express)
- 7-Eleven & Speedway
Low Retail Price Chains
- Sheetz
- RaceTrac / RaceWay
- Casey’s
- Sapp Bros
- Kwik Trip
What’s the difference? Low Retail Price Chains come with a smaller per-gallon discount, but their street prices already run low. Either way, you come out ahead, and in October, every gallon at any of these stops earns the extra 5¢.
How Much Can You Save Per Truck?
Let’s keep the math simple. A typical truck burns about 1,000 gallons a month, or roughly 250 gallons a week.
At 5¢ a gallon, 1,000 gallons means $50 back per truck in October from the rebate alone.
Rebate Savings by Fleet Size
| Trucks | October Rebate (1,000 gal per truck) |
|---|---|
| 1 truck | $50 |
| 5 trucks | $250 |
| 10 trucks | $500 |
Total Savings With Your Regular Discount
Now add the regular In-Network discount you already get. Our average discount has been climbing this year, from 33¢ per gallon year-to-date to 51¢ per gallon in the last week of September.
| Discount Scenario | Per Gallon | Per Week (250 gal) | October Total (1,000 gal) |
|---|---|---|---|
| YTD average + rebate | 33¢ + 5¢ = 38¢ | $95 | $380 |
| Late September average + rebate | 51¢ + 5¢ = 56¢ | $140 | $560 |
Why Fueling In-Network Pays Off All Year
Fuel is one of the biggest line items in any trucking business. Where you fill up matters just as much as how much you buy.
PorterFuel Card In-Network fuel discounts are built to lower your cost per gallon at the truck stops and chains you already use. That happens every day, not just in October.
The rebate is a bonus on top. It’s also a good reminder to plan your stops around In-Network locations, because those cents per gallon turn into real dollars over a year.
3 Ways to Get the Most From October
Plan your stops before you roll.
A quick look at your route can turn a regular fill-up into extra money back.
Tell your drivers.
If you run a fleet, make sure every driver knows which chains count this month. One missed stop per truck adds up.
Don't wait until the end of the month.
The rebate only covers gallons bought October 1 to 31. Every In-Network gallon you skip is money left at the pump.
