The Benefits of Paying Your National Fuel Bill With a Credit Card
There are several advantages to putting your National Fuel gas bill on a credit card each month

Delayed Payment – You have the buffer between the credit card statement period and due date to pay your gas bill, allowing extra time to get funds together.
As long as you pay your credit card balance in full each month, using a card to pay bills like your National Fuel gas bill can really pay off.
