Standard Bank’s UCount Rewards programme is rolling out a temporary boost to fuel rewards, giving qualifying members the opportunity to earn up to R15 back in Rewards Points per litre when filling up at Astron Energy and Caltex service stations At a time of persistently high fuel prices, the increased rewards could meaningfully reduce rising cost pressures.
A client filling a 50-litre tank could earn up to R750 in Rewards Points, depending on their UCount Rewards tier level and qualifying criteria.
The limited-time offer provides practical relief to consumers facing ongoing cost pressures, particularly around essential expenses such as transport, as high fuel prices continue to strain household budgets.
From 16 May to 15 July 2026, qualifying UCount Rewards members will benefit from an enhanced fuel earn structure, enabling higher rewards on both petrol and diesel purchases when using a qualifying Standard Bank Credit Card at participating Astron Energy and Caltex service stations.
“Fuel remains one of the most significant and unavoidable expenses for many South Africans. By increasing the fuel rewards our clients can earn for a limited period, we aim to provide meaningful relief at the pump, while helping free up household budgets for other essentials. Rewards Points can also be used at Rewards Retailers or redeemed into their savings account,” said Fayelizabeth Foster, Head of Loyalty and Rewards at Standard Bank.
Foster added that the latest UCount Rewards offer reflects the bank’s continued focus on delivering tangible, everyday value to clients.
The offer is available automatically to qualifying UCount Rewards members across all tier levels when paying with an eligible Standard Bank Credit Card at participating Astron Energy and Caltex service stations.
