That's only 10% of the discounted amount, not of the sale price. If they save you $40, you pay TSD $4.0 which is still quite the saving. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

At one time the discount at Loves was the bigger one. Yes I have ben running at the $0.15- $0.17 range with Loves. 1 hour ago, manholt said: Don't forget the 10% it's costing us for each transaction. I went back and looked at my transaction details and I was charged $0.65 for TA and Loves was $0.40 I don't see where you are seeing a 10% charge.

manholt Report post Posted February 5, 2021 Bill, it's always been 10% of what your savings are! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wildebill308 Report post Posted February 5, 2021 Yes, I went back and re read the web site. Where it said "Our fee is 10% of the savings per gallon." I don't mind giving them $0.40 to save $15.42 (sample transaction at Love's).So that is why I couldn't see the correlation on savings. The fee was the same because savings per gallon was the same even though the total savings varied. Bill Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
richard5933 Report post Posted February 5, 2021 Some fuel stops also have a per-transaction fee in addition to the fee TSD takes. Depends somewhat on the specifics of the contract negotiated with TSD. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

richard5933 Report post Posted February 8, 2021 Here's a quote from the TSD website: Our fee is 10% of the savings per gallon and up to 15% for commercial. So if the retail cost is $3.00 per gallon and our cost is $2.50 per gallon, your fee will be 5 cents per gallon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So explain this, on my last 4 stops at Love's the "fees" were all $0.40 per transaction. Yet the number of gallons varied. So at this point I will just take my $0.16 per gallon savings and keep on smiling. Just like I said in a previous post. I don't mind giving them $0.40 to save $15.42. Do you have a card?

richard5933 Report post Posted February 8, 2021 Like I mentioned earlier, some fuel stops have a per-transaction fee in addition to the TSD fee. That transaction fee is passed onto the fuel stop, not TSD IIRC. Not all stores carrying a particular brand name are corporate stores, and it's my understanding that because of that they don't all have the same negotiated prices and fees.
