Don't intend to start a discussion as to whether it's smart or not, but we are now in Zihuatanejo, and used a credit card at each and every Pemex we filled at!!!!
It's fast, easy, and we love our 1.5% cash back card!
(Yes, really, it's CapitalOne, and autopay)
Been doing it for 15 years. Required by Hacienda (Mexican version of IRS) for tax deductions. Never an issue, no extra charges on Mexican cards debit/credit. Fast, easy, you get a printed receipt with the date, time, pump, liters, and price. We rarely carry cash on the road, no need to these days everyone takes a card. (Okay, maybe not the paletero). OXXO, 7 Eleven, supermarkets, gas stations, retaurants. Maybe charges for foreign cards that I can't answer.
