How to Pay Bills in Gas Station Simulator

Fuel up, cash out.

Gasoline is one of those things you’re not really cognizant of the price of when you’re a kid, like snacks or batteries. Fueling up regularly is pricey enough when you’re just driving a car to work, so imagine how expensive it must be to actually run a gas station. Well, stop imagining and start paying. Here’s how to pay bills in Gas Station Simulator.

Obviously, if you want to pay your bills, you need cold, hard cash. Making money is the baseline element of the game, so most activities you do around the station will bring in some cash. The biggest moneymakers are refueling cars, selling and restocking items at the minimart, and keeping the place neat and tidy. Any money you make is automatically deposited in your wallet, shown at the bottom-left of the screen.

You can also see your next bill in that spot, as well as the station’s bank balance, which you can transfer money to from your wallet. You need to make sure the amount of money in your bank balance is higher than the posted bill. When the bill comes due, the money will automatically be deducted from your bank balance, assuming you have enough. If you don’t, then congrats! You’re bankrupt.

In addition to consistently paying off your bills, you also need to endeavor to keep your costs down wherever you can. The game keeps a running tally of things like the utilities being used by the station and minimart, and charges you more accordingly.

To save some cash, make sure to turn off the lights and air conditioning in the station using the switch in the office at the end of the work day. Additionally, try not to over-invest in things like fridges and food heaters. Appliances eat up a lot of electricity and are best saved until your station has matured a bit. No one eats the hot snacks from a gas station anyway. Or at least they shouldn’t.

Consistent performance while the station is open, combined with optimization of utilities, will ensure that you always have enough money available to pay off your bills. Keep that place up and running! There are already enough abandoned gas stations in the world.
