How Sydney pricing works
NSW runs FuelCheck, the state’s mandatory real-time fuel price scheme, operated by the NSW Government. Stations report price changes as they happen, so the price you see was reported by the station itself – not crowd-sourced, not estimated.
FuelNow reads FuelCheck directly and shows when each price was last verified, so a fresh price and an old one never look the same.
Timing your fill-up in Sydney
Sydney runs a petrol price cycle – prices jump sharply, then fall slowly over weeks. Cycles have been long and irregular recently, which is why FuelNow shows a live map rather than a forecast: when you need fuel now, what matters is which station you pick. The ACCC publishes current cycle guidance for Sydney.
