How much can you save?
The Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) found that UK drivers can save up to £4.50 per tank simply by choosing the cheapest station within a 5-minute drive rather than their usual one.
| Driver type | Fills per week | Annual saving |
|---|---|---|
| Occasional driver | 1× | ~£164 |
| Regular commuter | 2–3× | ~£328 |
| Taxi / courier (full-time) | 3–5× | £600–£700+ |
Based on live FuelScope data (April 2026) and CMA Road Fuel Market Study, July 2023.
Why now?
From 2 February 2026, the UK Government requires every petrol station to publish its prices as open data under the Motor Fuel Price (Open Data) Regulations 2025. For the first time, real-time price comparison across all 8,300+ UK stations is possible.
Before this law, tools like this simply could not exist reliably — data was incomplete and crowdsourced. Now every station is legally required to report. FuelScope is built on top of this official government feed.
The bigger picture
The price gap between stations is not random. The CMA found that UK retail fuel margins have remained at historically elevated levels — supermarket fuel margins doubled between 2020 and 2024. In 2023 alone, UK drivers overpaid over £1.6 billion compared to what competitive margins would have produced.
In this environment, knowing where the cheapest station is — and acting on it — is not just convenient. It is one of the few direct ways a driver can push back against a market that has not been working in their favour.
Clean, verified data
The government feed is live and comprehensive — but raw data always contains errors. FuelScope runs a validation pipeline on every sync:
- ✓Price anomaly detection — catches decimal errors (e.g. 15p instead of 150p) using statistical comparison against the market median
- ✓Coordinate correction — validates each station against UK boundaries and corrects common GPS errors automatically
- ✓Price freshness — every station card shows how recently prices were updated; you can filter for stations updated within 24h or 7 days
