How Melbourne pricing works
Victorian stations must report price changes within 30 minutes under rules in force since 6 August 2025. The government reserves the real-time feed for its own Servo Saver channel and releases the public feed on a deliberate 24-hour delay. Other apps fill the gap with crowd reports or private retailer feeds – the official public data is a day behind for everyone, and FuelNow is the app that says so, on every price card.
Since 10 March 2026, Victoria also caps each day’s prices in advance: stations lodge a next-day maximum and prices can drop during the day but can’t go up.
Timing your fill-up in Melbourne
Melbourne runs a multi-week price cycle – a sharp jump, then a slow slide. With the public feed a day behind, cycle position matters more than exact cents: the map still shows which stations sit at the cheap end. The ACCC publishes current cycle guidance for Melbourne.
