How Husky Codes on Your Statement
When you pay at Husky at their locations, your card issuer sees MCC 5541 in the transaction data. This code tells your bank that the purchase was made at a service stations ( with or without ancillary services) merchant. Bonus reward rates on your card apply based on this MCC — not the merchant name itself.
If your card earns bonus points on "service stations ( with or without ancillary services)" purchases, Husky transactions will qualify — even if your card terms only mention a category name and not Husky specifically. The key is that the MCC matches your card's bonus category definition.
You can verify the MCC on any Husky transaction by checking your card's mobile app or statement. Some issuers display the merchant category alongside the transaction details. For the most accurate information, contact your card issuer's customer service and ask whether MCC 5541 qualifies for bonus rewards.

Issuers use MCCs to determine which transactions qualify for bonus reward rates. When a merchant is assigned MCC 5541, all qualifying card programs that include service stations ( with or without ancillary services) as a bonus category will apply the elevated earn rate.
