A recently-launched online app in South Africa shows motorists which fuel stations they should use for the cheapest refills and best cash-back rewards from their banking and other fuel rewards programmes.
The tool — called MyTank — was developed by Capetonian Rob Gardner and is available on a browser at mytank.co.za or as an Android app.
“I worked out I was sometimes getting less back in rewards than what it cost in fuel driving to a specific fuel station.” Yes, rewards of like 10c per litre don't even cover the cost of driving to the petrol station! But this app has shown me that I have another rewards option that is 2,5x better than the one I usually use, so I'm going to switch reward partners from now on.
This will probably also be very helpful if, and when, petrol prices get deregulated in South Africa. The app has definitely advanced noticeably over the last year, with quite a few improvements.
Registering for an account lets you adjust your fuel tank size for your specific vehicle and add their fuel rewards programmes with applicable levels/tiers for personalised results.
