Fuel app comparison

Which fuel price app should you use in Australia?

The right choice depends on where you drive and whether you care about price alone, price cycles, fuel logs or loyalty points. Fuel is one way PointFarm helps Australians farm more points from spending they already do.

Checked 26 October 2026 · Written by PointFarm, which is included in this comparison

Quick answer: PointFarm is a fit for iPhone users who want to compare nearby fuel prices alongside Qantas, Velocity, Flybuys or Everyday Rewards earning. Petrol Spy is worth considering for price-cycle charts. Fuel Map adds a fuel log. If you want the government source for one state, use its own fuel tool. Check the coverage and price timestamp before travelling.

Choose by what matters to you

Lowest price nearby

Start with a map for your location and fuel type. Compare the price timestamp, distance and any membership condition before you drive.

Price plus points

A lower pump price is not always the whole calculation. Compare what fuel points are worth, then decide whether the points outweigh a cash discount.

Price-cycle timing

If you can choose when to fill up, a chart or alert may be more useful than a map alone. Petrol Spy lists price-cycle graphs for major cities.

A source you can verify

For NSW/ACT and Victoria, the government tools let you check the primary reported price. Other states also publish fuel-price services.
