Murphy USA has joined Tempo Payment Inc.’s network, which is initiating a system-wide implementation of Murphy-branded PIN debit cards at more than 1,000 gas stations, with an initial rollout to 111 stores in Atlanta, Dallas

and Houston. As a result of the substantially lower interchange fees it will realize by shifting payments away from bank-issued credit and debit cards, Murphy USA will reward consumers using the card with a one-cent-per-gallon discount at the pump.

“Tempo’s nationwide payment network enables us to reduce certain transaction costs and share the savings with our customers when transactions are processed through Tempo,” said Bryan Botkin, manager, special services, with Murphy USA.

Murphy USA debit card holders will also be able to use the card for purchases at more than 200,000 merchant locations in the U.S. that participate in the Tempo Payment Network.
