Australia's Most Advanced Fuel Price Intelligence
Petrolmate gives you real-time fuel prices and price predictions across 11,500+ stations in Australia and New Zealand. Powered by 8 official government APIs and advanced cycle detection, we analyse the unique price pattern at each station, forecast prices 1, 3, and 7 days ahead, and send you smart alerts before prices rise.
Our system automatically detects the unique price cycle at each station, forecasts where prices are heading, and proactively alerts you before prices rise. Whether you're in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, or Auckland, Petrolmate helps you fill up at the right time — not just the right place.
How Much Can You Save on Fuel?
Australian fuel prices can vary by up to 40 cents per litre between the cheapest and most expensive stations in the same area. For a typical 60-litre tank, that's a saving of $24 per fill-up - or over $600 per year just by choosing the right servo.
But choosing the cheapest station is only half the story. Our ML models analyse price cycles at your stations so you fill up at the bottom, not the peak. Timing your fill-up right can save an additional 5-10 cents per litre on top of choosing the cheapest station.
Smart drivers use Petrolmate. Know when to fill up, not just where.
Predictive Intelligence That No Other Fuel App Offers
Price Cycle Detection
Our models automatically discover the unique price cycle at each station — weekly in Sydney, fortnightly in Brisbane, regulated in Perth. We detect where you are in the cycle and how many days until the next trough.
Price Forecasting
Proprietary forecasting models predict prices 1, 3, and 7 days ahead with confidence intervals. Know whether prices are heading up or down before you decide to fill.
4-Signal Recommendations
Four independent signals must agree before we tell you to fill up: price position, cycle phase, forecast direction, and day-of-week patterns. No false alarms.
Smart Alerts
Three tiers of intelligence — Optimal Buy (rare, all signals align), Good Opportunity (strong signals), and Daily Digest. We learn your preferences and only alert about the cheapest station in your suburb.

How accurate are the fuel prices on Petrolmate?
Very accurate! Because we source data directly from official government APIs (not crowdsourced), our fuel prices are verified and updated throughout the day. In states like NSW, WA, and VIC, fuel retailers are legally required to report their prices to government systems, ensuring maximum accuracy.
How does Petrolmate predict fuel prices?
Petrolmate uses proprietary machine learning models to analyse historical price data at each station individually. Our system automatically detects the unique price cycle at every station, then forecasts prices 1, 3, and 7 days ahead. Four independent signals (price position, cycle phase, forecast direction, and day-of-week patterns) must agree before we recommend filling up, so you only get alerts when the timing is genuinely good.
What are Petrolmate's smart fuel price alerts?
Our intelligent alert system evaluates four independent signals before sending you an alert: where the current price sits historically, whether the station is at the bottom of its price cycle, what our forecast models predict, and day-of-week patterns. Alerts come in three tiers: Optimal Buy (all signals agree, very rare), Good Opportunity (strong signals), and Daily Digest (worth watching). We also prevent alert fatigue by learning your engagement preferences and only alerting about the cheapest station in your suburb.
How is Petrolmate different from other fuel apps?
Most fuel apps show you today's prices. Petrolmate also tells you whether to fill up today or wait. Our machine learning system analyses price cycles at each station, forecasts where prices are heading, and proactively alerts you before prices rise. We cover every Australian state and territory plus New Zealand with data from 8 official government APIs, and our 4-signal recommendation engine provides confidence scores so you understand why we're recommending a fill-up.
Which cities and regions does Petrolmate cover?
Petrolmate covers all major Australian cities including Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide, Hobart, Darwin, Canberra, Gold Coast, Newcastle, Wollongong, Geelong, Townsville, Cairns, Toowoomba, Ballarat, Bendigo, Albury, Launceston, Mackay, and New Zealand cities including Auckland, Wellington, and Christchurch.
