What OnCue is and where to find it

OnCue is a chain of gas stations and convenience stores owned and operated by Love's Travel Stops & Country Stores. The chain operates primarily in Oklahoma, Kansas, and Texas, with most locations in Oklahoma. OnCue stations sell fuel, food, beverages, and typical convenience store items — snacks, drinks, tobacco, lottery tickets, and car supplies.

OnCue locations are standalone convenience stores rather than truck stops. They are smaller than Love's Travel Stops, which cater to semi-trucks and long-haul drivers. You can find OnCue stations in towns and cities across its service area by using the Love's website locator tool or the Love's mobile app, which shows fuel prices, amenities, and hours at each location.

The chain uses the OnCue brand name at the pump and on signage, but corporate ownership and backend systems are shared with Love's. This means loyalty programs, fuel rewards, and payment methods often work across both brands if you have a Love's account.

Key Takeaways

  • OnCue is a convenience store and gas station chain in Oklahoma, Kansas, and Texas, owned by Love's Travel Stops.
  • You can locate nearby OnCue stations and check fuel prices using the Love's website locator or mobile app.
  • OnCue accepts major credit cards, debit cards, and mobile payment methods at the pump and inside the store.
  • The Love's rewards program lets you earn points on fuel and in-store purchases, which you can redeem for discounts on future visits.
  • Fuel grades, pricing, and in-store inventory vary by location, so prices and product selection are not uniform across all OnCue stations.

Fuel grades and pricing at OnCue

OnCue stations offer multiple fuel grades: regular unleaded (87 octane), mid-grade (89 octane), and premium (91 or 93 octane, depending on location). Diesel fuel is also available at most OnCue locations. Prices vary by station and change daily based on wholesale fuel costs and local market conditions.

You can check current prices at specific OnCue locations through the Love's app or website before you visit. The app shows the price per gallon for each fuel grade at each station. Prices are typically updated multiple times per day, so checking before you drive can help you find the cheapest nearby option if you are in an area with multiple OnCue stations.

OnCue does not publish a single "OnCue price" — each station sets its own price within the Love's corporate system. A station in Oklahoma City may charge differently than one 50 miles away. This is standard across gas station chains and reflects local competition, delivery costs, and demand.

Payment methods and fuel rewards

OnCue accepts all major credit cards (Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover) and debit cards at both the pump and inside the store. You can also pay with mobile payment apps like Apple Pay, Google Pay, and Samsung Pay at the pump if your OnCue station's pump supports contactless payment — most newer pumps do, but older ones may not.

The Love's rewards program is the main loyalty program for OnCue. You can join for free online or in the Love's app. When you link a payment method or phone number to your account, you earn points on fuel purchases and in-store purchases. Points accumulate and can be redeemed for fuel discounts, free items, or other rewards depending on the current promotion.

Rewards rates vary by promotion and purchase type. During some periods, you may earn bonus points on fuel or in-store items. The Love's app shows your current points balance and available rewards. You do not need to carry a physical card — the app or a phone number lookup at the pump is sufficient to earn and redeem points.

In-store shopping and amenities

OnCue convenience stores stock standard items: packaged snacks, candy, beverages (soft drinks, coffee, energy drinks, water), hot food (roller grill items, sandwiches, pizza), ice, and car supplies (motor oil, windshield washer fluid, air fresheners). Many locations also sell lottery tickets and tobacco products.

Food and beverage selection varies by location. Larger OnCue stations in cities typically have more hot food options and a wider variety of drinks and snacks. Smaller rural locations may have a more limited selection. The Love's app does not show in-store inventory, so if you are looking for a specific item, calling the station directly is the most reliable way to confirm they have it in stock.

Most OnCue locations have restrooms available for customers. Hours vary by location — some are open 24 hours, while others close at night. The Love's app or a phone call to the specific station will confirm hours and whether restrooms are available.

How to use the Love's app and website

The Love's website (loves.com) and Love's mobile app are the primary tools for finding OnCue stations, checking fuel prices, and managing your rewards account. The app is available on iOS and Android. You can create a free account using an email address or phone number.

In the app, use the "Locations" or "Find a Station" feature to search by address, city, or GPS location. Results show OnCue and Love's stations near you, with fuel prices, amenities (restrooms, WiFi, EV charging if available), and hours. You can filter by fuel grade to see which stations have the octane you need.

Your rewards account is managed in the app under "My Account" or "Rewards." You can view your points balance, see available rewards, and check your purchase history. When you pay at the pump or inside the store, link your phone number or scan a barcode in the app to earn points on that transaction.

Differences between OnCue and Love's Travel Stops

OnCue and Love's Travel Stops are both owned by Love's but serve different customers. Love's Travel Stops are large facilities designed for semi-truck drivers and long-haul travelers. They have truck parking, showers, laundry facilities, and larger food courts. OnCue stations are smaller, urban and suburban convenience stores without truck parking or driver-specific amenities.

Both brands accept the same payment methods and share the Love's rewards program. Fuel quality and grades are comparable. The main difference is size and location: Love's is on highways and interstates; OnCue is in towns and cities. If you are driving a regular car, OnCue is the appropriate brand. If you are driving a semi-truck, Love's Travel Stops is the intended destination.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use my Love's rewards at OnCue?

Yes. The Love's rewards program works at both OnCue and Love's Travel Stops. Points earned at one brand can be redeemed at either brand. Your account and points balance are shared across both chains.

Does OnCue offer EV charging?

Some OnCue locations have electric vehicle charging stations, but not all. Check the Love's app or website — the location details page will show whether EV charging is available at that specific station. Availability varies by location and is expanding over time.

What should I do if a pump is broken or out of service?

Go inside the store and tell a staff member. They can direct you to a working pump or, if none are available, may be able to process your payment inside. If the entire station is out of fuel or has a major issue, use the Love's app to find another OnCue or Love's location nearby.

Are OnCue fuel prices the same everywhere?

No. Each OnCue station sets its own price based on local market conditions, competition, and wholesale costs. Prices can differ significantly between stations even in the same city. Check the Love's app to compare prices at nearby locations before you fill up.

Can I pay cash at OnCue?

Yes, you can pay cash inside the store. However, most modern pumps require a card or mobile payment at the pump itself. If you prefer to pay cash, go inside, tell the attendant how much fuel you want to buy, pay in cash, and they will authorize that pump for you.
