Kroger Fuel Point for Every $1 You Spend at Kroger

Ever wish you could save money on gas just by buying groceries? Good news: Kroger’s Fuel Points program does exactly that. For every $1 you spend at Kroger, you earn 1 fuel point.

These points add up fast and can be redeemed for big savings at the pump. Whether you shop in-store or online, this guide will show you how to rack up points, check your balance, and make the most of every dollar.

Let’s break it down in plain English, with step-by-step tips, personal stories, and answers to the questions real shoppers ask. Ready to fill up for less? Let’s go!

It’s simple: every time you shop at Kroger and use your Shopper’s Card, you earn 1 fuel point for every $1 you spend on eligible items. This works whether you’re shopping in the store, ordering pickup, or getting groceries delivered.

• In-store: Swipe your Shopper’s Card or enter your Alt ID at checkout.
• Online: Log in to your Kroger account before you shop for pickup or delivery. Points are added automatically.

Heads up: Some things don’t count, like alcohol, tobacco, gift cards, lottery tickets, and a few other items. Always check the latest rules in your area.

Kroger Fuel Points are loyalty rewards that help you save on fuel. Here’s how it works:

• Earn 1 point per $1 spent on groceries (online or in-store).
• Earn double points on gift cards (that’s 2 points per $1).
• Earn extra points for filling prescriptions, taking surveys, and more.
• Points add up during the month and expire at the end of the next month.

Example:
Spend $100 at Kroger, get 100 points. That’s 10¢ off per gallon at the pump.

Activity	Points Earned
Groceries (in-store/online)	1 point per $1 spent
Gift Cards	2 points per $1 spent
Prescription (federally funded)	1 point per $1 out-of-pocket
Prescription (non-federally)	50 points per prescription
Satisfaction Survey	50 points (once every 7 days)
The Little Clinic visit	50 points per paid visit

Wondering how many points you have? There are several easy ways to check your Kroger Fuel Points balance:

• On your receipt: Your current points total is printed at the bottom after every purchase.
• Online: Log in at kroger.com, go to “My Account,” and check your points under “Kroger Plus Card Information”.
• Mobile app: Open the Kroger app, sign in, and tap “Rewards” or “Fuel Points Program” to see your balance10.
• By phone: Call 1-833-638-3490, enter your Shopper’s Card number, and follow the prompts11.

No receipt? No problem. The website and app are always up to date.

Yes! At participating Shell stations, you can redeem up to 1,000 fuel points for $1 off per gallon on a single fill-up (up to 35 gallons).

• 100 points = 10¢ off per gallon
• 1,000 points = $1 off per gallon

But not every Shell station participates, so check the Kroger or Shell website to find locations near you.

To keep track of your points, you’ll need a Kroger digital account. Here’s how to get started:

• Go to kroger.com and click “Sign In” or “Create Account.”
• Enter your info and link your Shopper’s Card.
• Once logged in, you can view your points, load digital coupons, and manage your account.

Tip: Use the same login for the Kroger app for easy access on your phone.

Redeeming your points is easy and only takes a minute:

• Find a participating Kroger Fuel Center or Shell station.
• Insert your Shopper’s Card at the pump or enter your Alt ID (your phone number linked to your account).
• Follow the prompts. The pump will ask if you want to use your fuel points and show your available discount.
• Select how many points to use. You can use 100, 200, or up to 1,000 points for bigger discounts.
• Start fueling. Enjoy your savings!

Note: You need at least 100 points to get a discount. Points expire at the end of the month after you earn them, so don’t wait too long.

No card? No problem. You can use your phone number (Alt ID) at the pump to redeem points:

• At the fuel pump, choose “Alt ID” and enter your phone number.
• The system pulls up your account and applies your discount.
• Make sure your phone number is linked to your Shopper’s Card in your Kroger account.

You can also call 1-833-638-3490 and enter your phone number to check your balance.

Forgot your card at home? You can still use your fuel points at Shell:

• At the pump, select “Loyalty/Rewards” or “Alt ID.”
• Enter your phone number (the one linked to your Kroger account).
• The system will show your available discount.
• Follow the prompts to redeem your points and start fueling.

Pro Tip: Always double-check that your phone number is linked to your Shopper’s Card before you head to the gas station.

• Points earned in one month expire at the end of the next month.
• Example: Earn points in April? Use them by the end of May.
• Unused points disappear, so don’t let them go to waste.

Location Type	Max Discount Per Gallon	Max Points Used	Max Gallons per Fill-up
Kroger Fuel Center	$1.00 (1,000 points)	1,000	35
Participating Shell	$1.00 (1,000 points)	1,000	35

• Shop during bonus events: Look for 2x or 4x points promos on gift cards.
• Take the satisfaction survey: Earn 50 points every week by completing the survey on your receipt.
• Fill prescriptions at Kroger: Earn points for out-of-pocket costs and non-federally funded prescriptions.
• Use your points before they expire: Don’t let them go to waste.
• Combine with digital coupons: Save even more on groceries and gas.

1. Shop at Kroger	Use your Shopper’s Card for every purchase
2. Earn Points	$1 spent = 1 point (groceries), 2 points (gift cards)

• Check the latest list in your area for details.

• Plan your shopping: Buy groceries and gift cards together for maximum points.
• Shop online: You still earn points for pickup and delivery orders.
• Track your points: Don’t let them expire.
• Use your Alt ID: Never miss a discount, even if you forget your card.
