“We are constantly looking for ways to bring value to our customers and to thank them for shopping at one of our over 1,350 stores,” said Arie Kotler, CEO of GPM. “fas Rewards does just that when customers shop our stores, earn points, and redeem their fas Bucks.”

In addition to the enrollment reward, enhancements include the chance to:
- Earn 10 points for every $1 spent inside.
