About the BP Receipt
BP receipts are issued at BP-branded gas stations across the US and document fuel purchases, convenience store items, and car wash transactions. Each receipt records the grade and gallons pumped, price per gallon, and total charged. People commonly recreate a BP receipt to replace a lost paper printout, document a business fuel expense, or submit a mileage reimbursement claim to an employer.

Using a BP Receipt
- Fuel purchases are non-refundable once dispensed; keep your receipt to dispute incorrect charges with your card issuer.
- Convenience store items may be returned or exchanged at the station where purchased; policies vary by location and franchise owner.
- BPme Rewards transactions are logged in the app, which can serve as a backup record if the paper receipt is lost.
- For business fuel expense claims, the receipt should show station address, fuel grade, gallons, price per gallon, and total.
FAQs
How do I get a duplicate BP receipt?
If you used the BPme app or linked a rewards account, your transaction history is saved in the app. Otherwise, contact the station directly with the date, time, and pump number โ franchised stations may be able to reprint from their POS system.
What information does a BP fuel receipt show for expense reports?
A standard BP receipt includes the station address, date and time, fuel grade, gallons pumped, price per gallon, and total charged. This is typically enough detail for IRS-compliant mileage and fuel reimbursement records.
Does BP offer digital receipts?
Yes. If you pay through the BPme app, a digital receipt is automatically saved to your account. Paying at the pump with a card does not always generate a digital copy unless the station's system supports email receipts.
What fields do I need to fill in when recreating a BP receipt?
Include the station name and address, transaction date and time, pump number, fuel grade, gallons dispensed, price per gallon, subtotal, any rewards discount, payment method, and total. Match the layout to an actual BP receipt for accuracy.
