About PetrolBuddy

Saving Australia More at the Bowser

Welcome to PetrolBuddy, your dedicated home for finding the cheapest petrol across Australia. Whether you’re filling up the family SUV in the suburbs, fueling the ute for a job, or planning a massive road trip across the Nullarbor, we are here to make sure you never pay more than you have to for a tank of petrol.

PetrolBuddy isn't just another search tool; it is a high-performance web platform designed to give Australian drivers a competitive edge. By providing real-time data from over 8,560 servos nationwide, we put the power back in your hands—helping you save cents per litre (c/L) every single time you visit the pump.

Our Story & Mission

Our mission is simple: Help every driver save money on petrol.

In an era where the cost of living is a constant conversation at the dinner table, the price of petrol remains one of the most volatile expenses for Aussie households. We believe that transparency is the key to fairer pricing. PetrolBuddy was created to strip away the guesswork, allowing you to see exactly what every servo is charging in real-time, from the big city hubs to rural townships.

Part of the FuelRadar Network

PetrolBuddy is proud to be part of the FuelRadar Network. Our journey began in 2020 with the launch of FuelRadar, Australia's original fuel price comparison platform. Over the years, FuelRadar has helped hundreds of thousands of Australians navigate price cycles and find the best deals.

As we grew, we realised that drivers wanted more ways to access our industry-leading data. The team behind FuelRadar created PetrolBuddy as a dedicated expansion—a focused web experience built to bring our powerful data engine to your desktop and mobile browser. While PetrolBuddy is your go-to web companion, our core technology and the massive FuelRadar community remain the engine room that keeps our prices accurate.

Go Mobile with FuelRadar

While PetrolBuddy is a web-only platform designed for quick and easy browser access, we know many drivers need help while they are already behind the wheel. For the full mobile experience, including on-the-go price alerts and GPS-integrated station searches, we recommend you download the FuelRadar app on iOS or Android. It uses the same reliable data you see here, optimised for your smartphone.
