6c/L
Auto-club member rate leads at 6c/L — about $3.00 a tank
On a 50L tank, the biggest single cents-off discount (Auto-club member rate, 6c/L) is about $3.00. Stack the dockets and member rates that combine and you can reach 14c/L — around $7.00 off the same fill. The catch: a discount off a high pump price still loses to a cheap servo at the bottom of the cycle.

Tank size
Scan Flybuys at participating Ampol/Coles Express sites for ~4c/L off. Spend $30+ at Coles for a stackable fuel docket.
Per-litre rates and conditions change — always check the program for the current offer. Map prices are pump prices before discounts; apply your card or docket at the bowser for the final price.
Member-only fuel
Does restricted-access fuel pay back?
A lower pump price is only useful if it beats the annual access fee and the extra kilometres. Run the quick check before driving out of your way.
Your access cost
Use the price gap you actually see on the map. A cheaper board price only helps if it beats the fee and the detour.

How it works
How fuel discounts and loyalty programs actually work
Australian fuel discounts come in three shapes. A supermarket docket gives you a fixed cents-per-litre discount when you spend enough in-store, redeemed at a linked fuel station. It is simple, and it usually stacks with a member rate at the same pump.
An app price lock is different: instead of cents off, it freezes today's low local price for a set window and volume, so it pays off most when prices are about to climb mid-cycle. A member rate (auto-club or rewards) is a standing per-litre discount that stacks on top of a docket.
The catch is simple: a discount comes off the pump price, not the cheapest price in town. A few cents off a station near the top of the price cycle can still cost more than filling at a cheap station at the bottom of it. Use the discount to improve an already-cheap fill, not to justify a dear one.
How it compares
- Supermarket docketvsApp price lock
A docket is a fixed cents-off on the day; a lock freezes a low price for days. Dockets suit a cheap-now fill, locks suit a "prices about to rise" moment.
- Member ratevsPoints
A member rate is cents off at the pump now; points are value you redeem later. Cents off is easier to compare directly against a cheaper station.
Make the most of it
Getting the most from fuel discounts
Discounts vs the cheapest servo
Loyalty programs help, but the biggest saving is usually paying less per litre before any discount. Check the cheapest servo near you on the live map first, then apply your card or docket at the bowser to go lower still. To see whether a cheaper-but-further station is actually worth it once you add the drive, run the distance-saving calculator.
Stacking discounts
A supermarket docket and an auto-club or rewards member rate apply together at the same linked bowser, so the stackable programs can combine to around 14c/L — roughly $7.00 off a 50L tank. App price locks and points generally don't stack with cents-off, so treat them as a separate play for when prices are about to rise. The fill-up cost estimator turns any combination into a dollar figure for your tank.
Time it with the price cycle
Discounts work best layered on top of good timing. Most capitals run a multi-week price cycle, so filling near the bottom of it and then applying your discount beats a discount at the top. See where your city sits on the live price cycle, and browse fuel guides for more ways to cut your bill.
