Is Refuelr a replacement for PetrolSpy?

For most drivers, yes. Refuelr covers the same national map and adds cycle, alert, and personalisation features PetrolSpy does not offer. The items PetrolSpy still has on us are the crowd-report reward programme, a longer cycle history window, and native apps shipping today.

Does Refuelr’s cycle indicator really work for diesel?

Yes. It works for U91, U95, U98, E10, Diesel, Premium Diesel and LPG — in every state that reports pricing. PetrolSpy’s equivalent is U91 and E10 only, major cities only.

Can I get price alerts for a regional town?

Yes. Alerts target any station, any fuel, anywhere we have pricing data. PetrolSpy’s best-time-to-buy alerts cover only unleaded in major capital cities.

Yes. The free tier covers the national map, search, 3 favourite stations, 1 vehicle, and 3 price alerts. Premium ($2.99/mo or $24.99/yr) unlocks unlimited usage, the 7-Eleven best-price locator, detailed cycle data, the commute optimiser, and removes ads.

How accurate are the prices?

Prices are pulled directly from state-government fuel-reporting schemes (the same data underlying ACCC monitoring) and refreshed every 30 minutes.

Is there a native mobile app?

Native iOS and Android apps ship Q2 2026. Meanwhile the Refuelr web app works fully on mobile and installs to your home screen like a native app.
