FuelWatch Is Now 100% Free. Compare Petrol and Diesel Prices Across All 32 Counties of Ireland.

FuelWatch.ie, Ireland's community-powered fuel price comparison platform, is now completely free. The app — which was previously paid — covers more than 1,500 petrol and diesel stations across all 32 counties of Ireland. With diesel above €2.00 per litre and the government's excise duty cuts set to expire at the end of May, Irish drivers need fuel price transparency more than ever.

Why we made FuelWatch free

We heard your requests. Since FuelWatch launched in March 2026, drivers from every corner of Ireland have told us the same thing: this should be free. With the fuel price crisis hitting household budgets harder every week, we agree. Removing the paywall means every Irish driver — not just those who can afford to pay — can now compare prices and choose the cheapest station before they fill up.

The Iran conflict pushed oil prices from around $70 to nearly $120 per barrel. Diesel crossed €2.00 per litre for the first time since 2022. The Irish Road Haulage Association has warned that fuel prices are approaching the level of a “national emergency.” The government responded with excise duty cuts — 20 cent per litre on diesel and 15 cent on petrol — but those measures expire at the end of May, and even with the cuts, prices remain at historic highs.

Making FuelWatch free also means any news outlet, radio station, or motoring journalist can recommend it to their audience without hesitation. There is no paywall, no subscription, no catch. Just open the app and compare prices.

How much can you save on fuel in Ireland?

The savings from comparing fuel prices before you fill up are real and measurable:

• A 5 cent per litre difference on a 55-litre tank saves approximately €2.75 per fill.
• Fill up once a week and that adds up to more than €140 saved per year.
• Price gaps of 10–15 cent per litre between nearby stations are common across Ireland — doubling or tripling those savings.

During a fuel crisis, those savings matter. A family with two cars filling up weekly could save over €280 per year simply by checking FuelWatch before choosing a station. That is money back in your pocket at a time when every cent counts.
