There is generally three tiers in BC Parks. The highest level has a gate attendant, and during summer they are there to take your card. They usually have hot showers and flush toilets, but not individual hookups.
The next level down may have flush toilets and pumped water to connect with a hose. I doubt they will be at the gate.
The lowest level is generally pit toilets and well water without a connection other than filling a bucket. Usually they rely on your putting money in the iron warden, or they come by to see you at your site. They do check, and the more people that comply with the system, the cheaper it remains for everyone.
So, the odds of using your credit card there is pretty slim.
