PITSTOPS - THE APP THAT FIGHTS BACK AT THE FUEL PUMP

PITSTOPS - THE APP THAT FIGHTS BACK AT THE FUEL PUMP

With fuel prices seeming to be doing their level best to bankrupt the ordinary South African motorist, a brilliant local solution has been quietly making waves across the country. Meet PitStops, a genuinely clever app that puts the power back in the hands of the driver precisely where it belongs.

Here is something that will make your eyes water. Diesel prices can vary by more than R2.50 per litre within the same small town or city. The record price difference recorded by the App PitStops, stands at R6.00 per litre within just 4 kilometres of a single user. Six Rand. Per litre. That is not a rounding error. That is money draining quietly from your wallet every single time you fill up without checking first.

The PitStops App fixes that. It is your essential companion for navigating South Africa's fuel prices, helping you find the cheapest option nearby, compare prices across stations, plan your routes intelligently and discover station amenities and specials along the way. With more than 4 200 prices updated each month and listings covering over 6 500 fuel stations nationwide, this is the largest and most accurate fuel price database in South Africa and it fits comfortably in your pocket.

Gauteng businessman Diederik van 't Hoft, who heads up SA Roof Rats, the company that has made unwanted roof inhabitants deeply unpopular across the country, has been championing this app with considerable enthusiasm among his extensive network. Once you use PitStops, you will understand exactly why.

Route planning, personalised location recommendations and loyalty points integration make this feel less like a fuel finder and more like a very switched-on co-driver who never steers you wrong.

Subscriptions start from just R35 per month. In a country where every rand at the pumps counts, this is money exceptionally well spent. Download it. Use it. Thank us later.
