As Fuel Prices Rise, ARKO Has Saved its Customers More Than $3.75 Million on Fuel Through its Fueling America’s Future Campaign and Earning Cents-Off Fuel Through its fas REWARDS® App

RICHMOND, Va., March 17, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — ARKO Corp. (Nasdaq: ARKO), a Fortune 500 company and one of the largest convenience store operators in the United States, today announced that customers have saved more than $3.75 million on fuel since the launch of its Fueling America’s Future campaign. This milestone reflects ARKO’s continued commitment to delivering meaningful value at the pump during a period of rising fuel prices.

Of the $3.75 million in total savings, more than $3.25 million came from the Company’s Fueling America’s Future stackable cents‑off promotions, while an additional $500,000 was saved through base fas REWARDS® points that members earned on everyday purchases and redeemed for fuel discounts.

“We launched Fueling America’s Future to help customers save when they need it most — and these savings show how powerful that commitment has become,” said Arie Kotler, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of ARKO Corp. “Saving our customers more than $3.75 million at the pump is a milestone we’re incredibly proud of, and we’re going to keep pushing value forward for every customer we serve.”

Through Fueling America’s Future, fas REWARDS® members can save up to $2.50 per gallon by stacking cents‑off fuel rewards earned through qualifying in‑store purchases. With a 20‑gallon fill‑up, members can save up to $50, delivering one of the most significant fuel savings opportunities in the convenience store industry.

Manufacturer‑supported offers currently available include:

• Buy 2 Frito‑Lay 7.75–8 oz Bag of Chips for $8 and get $0.50 off per gallon
• Buy 2 Monster Energy Juice Voodoo Grape 16 oz or Monster Energy Ultra Punk Punch 16 oz for $5.50 and get $0.50 off per gallon
• Buy 2 Gatorade 28 oz for $5.50 and get $0.25 off per gallon
• Buy 2 Kinder Joy 0.7 oz for $2.50 each and get $0.25 off per gallon

In addition to promotional offers, customers earn points on every transaction — 10 points for every $1 spent in store and 5 points for every gallon of fuel purchased. Every 250 points can be redeemed for 5¢ off per gallon, giving members even more ways to layer savings. Combined, these promotions and points have helped fas REWARDS® members generate over $3.75 million in savings to date.

“Between high‑value promotional offers and everyday points, fas REWARDS® members are saving faster than ever,” said Michael Bloom, Chief Marketing and Merchandising Officer at ARKO Corp. “Our customers are feeling the impact of rising fuel costs, and we’re proud that this program is delivering millions of dollars in real value back into their pockets.”
