How often are fuel prices updated on PetrolFinder?
PetrolFinder updates fuel prices every 5 minutes using data from the UK government's mandatory fuel price reporting scheme. Every major retailer with 250 or more employees is legally required to report their prices, so the data you see here is as close to real-time as it gets.
Where does PetrolFinder get its fuel price data?
All prices come directly from the UK government's open data feed, which was introduced as part of the mandatory fuel price transparency initiative. Retailers are required by law to report their pump prices, making this one of the most reliable fuel price sources available to UK drivers.
How do I find the cheapest petrol near me?
Simply enter your postcode or town name in the search bar at the top of the page. PetrolFinder will show you every station within your chosen radius, sorted by price so the cheapest option is always at the top. You can filter by fuel type and see prices on an interactive map.
Are supermarket fuel prices cheaper than branded stations?
In most cases, yes. Supermarkets like Asda, Tesco, Sainsbury's, and Morrisons typically price their fuel several pence per litre below branded forecourts such as Shell, BP, and Esso. You can compare the exact difference on our brands page, which tracks average prices across every major UK fuel retailer.
Is PetrolFinder free to use?
Yes, PetrolFinder is completely free. There are no subscriptions, no hidden fees, and no account required. We believe every driver should have easy access to transparent fuel pricing information to help them make the best decision at the pump.
