How to save money on gas with GasBuddy

1. Find the best gas prices near you

The GasBuddy app shows gas prices at all stations nearby to help you find the best deal on gas. Just download the mobile app and let it see your current location. All nearby gas stations will appear in a list at the center of the screen alongside prices. You can use the filtering options at the top of the screen to choose which fuel type you'd like to buy and how far away you're willing to drive for gas.

There's also a map view you can use to find gas stations near you, as well as their respective pricing.

Tap on a gas station to see its pricing for each type of gas. GasBuddy relies on crowdsourcing for pricing data, so prices may not always be accurate. However, I've found that most stations are updated at least once per day and you can see the last time it was updated below the price.

With a little bit of planning, you can save real money on long trips when you're gassing up frequently. So, use GasBuddy when planning road trips to find the best deals on gas.

2. Using Pay with GasBuddy to save on every gallon

You can save even more using Pay with GasBuddy. When you sign up for this service, you'll get a prepaid gas card that can be used at many gas stations around the country. This card is linked to your checking account and will pull funds to cover your purchase every time you pump gas.

You'll save per gallon of gas you pump, and savings vary based on where you pump. Free members can save up to 25 cents per gallon, like in the screenshot above.

You can save up to 40 cents per gallon when you enroll in GasBuddy Premium. This service costs $9.99 per month and guarantees that you save at least 20 cents per gallon (up to 50 gallons per month). Furthermore, you have access to 24-hour roadside assistance from Allstate and exclusive GasBack offers (more on that soon).

Register for Pay with GasBuddy on the app or GasBuddy's website. Create an account and apply for the card, and it should come in the mail in a week or so. You're required to provide information like your address, date of birth and full name. You'll also need to link a bank account.

To find participating gas stations and see how much you'll save with Pay with GasBuddy, open the app and scroll through the list of gas stations. You'll see "Deal Alerts" in red above stations that support Pay with GasBuddy and offer a discount. The discount is listed next to the label as you can see in the case of the 76 station in the first screenshot.

To activate the discount, tap on the station's name and tap the "Activate Discount" button at the bottom of the screen (as shown in the second screenshot).

When you get to the station, swipe your GasBuddy card. Your checking account will be charged for your gas purchase minus the discount reflected in the app.

3. Earn more savings with GasBack

You can also save on gas by earning GasBack in the GasBuddy app. In short, GasBack is the company's shopping portal that awards you gas credit when you shop with participating merchants. Each merchant awards a different percentage of GasBack based on the total cost of your purchase. For example, Old Navy awards 3% GasBack on purchases. You can redeem GasBack toward gas purchases made with Pay with GasBuddy.

To earn rewards, open the GasBuddy app before making a purchase online and go to the Savings tab. Then, search for your merchant and tap on it. Tap the Shop Now button at the bottom of the screen and make your online purchase as usual. GasBack will appear in your account after the merchant confirms the purchase.

Always cross-compare GasBack earnings with the cash back or points you'd earn with a different shopping portal. For example, it may make sense to earn with Rakuten if it's offering more cash back (or American Express Membership Rewards points) than the GasBack portal. You can compare shopping portal earnings rates with an aggregator like Cash Back Monitor.
