About PetrolSavings UK: Data, Privacy & Ranking
Learn who runs PetrolSavings, where UK fuel prices come from, and how freshness, privacy, and ranking transparency are handled.
What we deliver
- Freshness first: Freshness-led price comparisons with clear timestamps.
- Privacy by default: We minimize location handling and keep consent controls clear.
- Ranking fairness: Cheapest and nearest outcomes follow explicit, visible rules.
What we don't do
- We do not retain your precise location after your request is complete.
- We do not allow paid placements or affiliate deals to influence ranking or badges.
Start with a postcode search to compare nearby stations quickly.
PetrolSavings helps UK drivers compare fuel prices quickly and confidently. We combine official price feeds with location data so you can see nearby stations, freshness timestamps, and real-world travel costs in one place.
Our focus is clarity: prices are shown in p/L, freshness is always visible, and the cheapest badge only appears when data is verified and current. We never sell your precise location or store calculator inputs.

How PetrolSavings works
Step 1
Find cheap petrol near you
Enter a postcode, town, or brand and fuel type to load nearby stations with distance and drive-time context.
Step 2
Compare with confidence
Every result shows p/L prices, freshness labels, and open-status signals so you can assess quality quickly.
Step 3
Choose your best stop
Use station details and journey tools to decide whether the cheapest pump price is worth the trip.
How ranking works
- Freshness gate: Stale or unverified prices are flagged and never receive a cheapest badge.
- Eligibility rules: Cheapest badges require an open station with a valid selected-fuel price and fresh or aging data.
- Tie-break logic: When prices match, the closer station wins, and one station can be both cheapest and nearest.
How prices are sourced
PetrolSavings aggregates price data from official sources, then enriches it with geospatial context so you can compare stations by distance, drive time, and freshness. We refresh data continuously and surface any availability limits or outages.
