Fuel Cards and Vouchers
Save time at the pump and manage your petrol budget with a fuel gift card.
Key takeaways
- Fuel gift cards allow easy budgeting for petrol and quick payment for fuel and other services.
- Purchase cards from $5 to $500 online or in-store, always checking acceptance and expiry terms.
- For ongoing savings, consider fuel charge cards for business or point-earning credit cards for personal use.
Where can I purchase a petrol gift card?
As convenient to buy as they are to use, fuel gift cards and vouchers can be purchased online, directly from the petrol station or even from the supermarket. If you have a preferred petrol provider or fuel network, you will want to confirm if it offers a gift card. That way you can ensure that the card you're using offers convenience and aligns with your regular spending behaviour. Before you apply, make sure you read the terms and conditions. For example, you should confirm where the card is accepted and if there are any expiry restrictions before you apply.
The value of the gift card will vary, but you can usually find gift cards that value between $5 to $500. These cards can often be reloaded, but remember to consider how much you or your recipient will need before you purchase the card.
Must read: Other types of fuel cards
If you're buying a fuel gift card or voucher for personal use, you might want to consider a credit card that earns points on fuel purchases instead. For example, the American Express Platinum Edge Credit Card awards up to 3 Membership Reward Points per $1 spent.
To manage business costs and take advantage of ongoing savings, you could also consider a fuel charge card rather than a gift card or voucher. Like a credit card designed for petrol purchases, you can use these cards to pay for fuel, manage your cash flow with a line of credit and track all of your corporate car costs under one account. Some cards also allow you to earn points as you spend and offer discounts per litre of fuel purchased.

Giving fuel cards and vouchers as presents
Whether you're buying a fuel gift card to congratulate a loved one with a new driver's licence or as a thank you to a friend for giving you a lift, a fuel voucher can be a practical and convenient gift. You can use the cards to pay for fuel as well as other petrol station costs, including snacks at the checkout. This frees up someone's credit card or debit account and saves them time at the pump.

What is the best fuel voucher gift card for someone traveling north of WA- ie the more prevalent fuel outlets
Hi Kerry,
Thanks for your question.
This will depend on where you plan to travel exactly (what towns, roads) as different petrol stations will service different areas. You can generally do a Yellow Pages search (http://www.yellowpages.com.au/) for service stations in towns that you’re planning to drive through to give you a better idea over which are the more prevalent stations.
If you’re unsure which petrol stations service the area, or if they change too much, you might like to consider a petrol credit card instead. You can view and compare some of your options here: http://www.creditcardfinder.com.au/petrol-credit-cards
Hope that helps,
Stephanie
