About PetrolPal
PetrolPal helps UK drivers find the cheapest fuel and EV charging near them. We aggregate live data from official sources to save you money on every fill-up.
Our Mission
Fuel prices in the UK vary significantly — often by 15p to 30p per litre between the cheapest and most expensive station in the same area. That's up to £15 difference on a single tank. PetrolPal exists to make those price differences visible and actionable, so every driver can make an informed choice about where to fill up.
We built PetrolPal because existing fuel comparison tools were either outdated, cluttered with ads, or locked behind paywalls. PetrolPal is free, fast, and focused entirely on helping you spend less on fuel.
The Company
PetrolPal is built and operated by Recurse LTD, a UK-registered software company. We build practical tools that solve everyday problems using open data and modern web technology.
