Pemex Stations


Do the Pemex Stations accept Visa Credit Cards? If they do, do they bill you in Pesos or convert to dollars?

Some of the Pemex's will take plastic. They will probably add on 4 - 5% to cover the costs the credit card company charges them. They will bill in Pesos, then your credit card will convert to Dollars. Also they may add an "international fee" so it might be better just to pay with Pesos.

A few... but you shouldn't count on it. El Rosario is one... I think a small percentage is added to cover the bank charge. However, if your bank doesn't know you plan on using it in Mexico, it may get automatically declined, so notify your bank or card carrier.
