Featuring the trademark "Wild Bean Cafe", the BP Connects sport a sleek design and suntiles on the top of the gas station. In addition, the BP Connects are also known for having a kiosk offering internet connection, and also Amoco Ultimate gasoline.
As of 2007, the BP Connect gas station chain in the United States carries the slogan "A Little Better Gas Station". The song in the commercials is LA (by the Indie rock band Message of the Blues). The song is featured in several TV and radio ads.
As of May 2008 all BP Connect stores in the United States were converted to ampm, the convenience store brand that BP inherited from its acquisition of ARCO.
