Motoring-club member rate lists 6c/L off, or about $3.00 on a 50L tank

On a 50L tank, Motoring-club member rate's listed 6c/L is about $3.00. Eligible offers may combine to 10c/L, or about $5.00 on the same fill. Check the underlying pump price because a discount does not guarantee the lowest final cost.

How to compare

Check the pump price first

Choose a competitively priced station, then apply an eligible discount.

  1. Check the local cycle

    In cities with price cycles, the underlying pump price may change by more than the discount. Check recent movement before a large fill.

    Step 1
  2. Find the cheapest station

    Open the map and compare nearby reported prices before choosing where to redeem any card or docket.

    Step 2
  3. Apply the discount

    Use dockets, member rates or points only when the underlying station price is already competitive.

    Step 3
  4. Check the route cost

    Include extra kilometres, queue time and any access fee when comparing a discounted station.

    Step 4

Your cards and tank

Include the annual access fee, extra kilometres and the reported pump-price difference.

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.

Price locks

When to use a price lock

A price lock holds an eligible price for a set period. Compare the locked price with nearby stations when you need fuel.

  1. Lock near the low

    A lock works best when local prices are low and you expect to fill before it expires.

  2. Compare the base price

    A locked brand price may still be higher than another nearby station. Compare the base prices first.

  3. Check limits

    Expiry, radius, volume, one-fuel limits and account rules can change the value. Read the current app terms before relying on it.

    Terms
  4. Compare it on the day

    Use the lock only if it is lower than the reported station prices available when you need fuel.

    Price

Member-only fuel

Before using member-only fuel

Include the membership fee, distance, fuel type, opening hours and queue time in the comparison.

  1. Membership fee

    Spread the annual fee across your expected litres. Occasional fills need a bigger cents-per-litre gap than weekly commuting.

    Fee
  2. Route fit

    A station on your normal route avoids extra travel. For a separate trip, check that the price difference covers the detour.

  3. Fuel grade

    Check the exact grade before driving. Member-only stations may not sell every premium or diesel grade at every site.

  4. Queue and hours

    Peak queues, unmanned payment and site hours can erase a small saving. Check the station page before a time-sensitive fill.

Discount types

How fuel discounts apply

A supermarket docket gives a fixed cents-per-litre discount after an eligible shop and is redeemed at a participating service station.

An app price lock holds an eligible local price for a set time and fuel volume. A member rate gives an ongoing discount and may combine with another offer where the provider terms allow.

Every discount is taken from the station's base pump price. Compare that price with nearby stations before applying the offer.

How it compares

  • Supermarket docketvsApp price lock

    A docket reduces an eligible fill by a set cents-per-litre amount. A lock holds an eligible price for a set period and volume.

  • Member ratevsPoints

    A member rate reduces the pump price at an eligible station. Points earn value for a later redemption under the program rules.

Using a discount

Using fuel discounts

Combining discounts

A supermarket docket and a motoring-club or rewards member rate may both be accepted at the same linked bowser where current terms allow. For compatible offers, the listed rate can be about 10c/L. That is about $5.00 on a 50L tank before caps and conditions. Price locks and points use different rules, so check the provider terms before combining offers. The fill-up cost estimator turns any combination into a dollar figure for your tank.

Time it with the price cycle

A discount saves more when the starting pump price is already competitive. In cities with multi-week price cycles, check recent movement on the price cycle, and browse fuel guides for more ways to cut your bill.
