As petrol prices hike in Pakistan, consumers can reduce their fuel expenses by using various petrol discount cards and digital payment options offering cashback and rewards.
To benefit from petrol price discounts, motorists can use dedicated fuel loyalty cards such as GO Cards, which provide reward points, cashless transactions, and savings at over 150 fuel stations nationwide.
Several banks are also offering fuel discount card options, including the HBL FuelSaver Credit Card, which provides up to 5% cashback on fuel purchases, and Standard Chartered’s Xtra Mile account, designed specifically for petrol savings.
Digital wallets are another way to secure petrol discounts, as platforms like Easypaisa allow users to scan QR codes at selected fuel stations to receive instant cashback on fuel prices.
Major companies in Pakistan’s petrol sector, including Shell and Attock, have introduced their own fuel discount cards and mobile app-based reward systems, enabling customers to earn points and save on petrol purchases.
