The free Servo Saver tool can be accessed on the Service Victoria app. It could save Victorian motorists up to $333 a year at the pump – putting money back in their pockets and helping to ease cost of living pressures.

The new app also helps deliver the first phase of the Government’s Fair Fuel Plan by requiring fuel retailers to report their fuel prices in real time, with new legislation set to cap on the daily price.

More than 1,200 retailers across Victoria are now compliant with the new mandatory reporting system and are already meeting requirements to report their fuel prices.

This price data is fed directly into Servo Saver, allowing motorists to see where they will get the best deal in their area or along their route and make informed decisions about when and where to fill up.

Currently, fuel price reporting in Victoria is voluntary and often patchy. While commercial price reporting websites exist, Servo Saver will include every fuel provider, won’t be advertiser funded, and will never promote one outlet over the other.

The servo saver and mandatory reporting will support the next phase of the Fair Fuel Plan – to cap the fuel price once a day and lock that ceiling in place for 24 hours, or when the price is reduced.

This means you’ll be able to check your local area for which service station is offering the best price throughout the next day – and when you arrive in the morning to fill up, there’ll be no surprises.

It’s just one of the ways the State Government is helping people save time and money.

Lauren Kathage MP, Member for Yan Yean:

“Before you fill up, check Servo Saver. It helps you find the cheapest fuel nearby - saving you real money every week.”

“Servo Saver takes out the guesswork so you can fill up for less - wherever you’re headed.”
