Amazon has a gas discount most Prime members don’t even know exists

Amazon Prime members in the U.S. can regularly save on gasoline, but many might not even know it. Now might be the best time to jump on it—because for a limited time only, fuel savings can double.

The savings perk dates back to October 2024, when Amazon partnered with BP’s rewards and fueling app Earnify, allowing Prime members to save 10 cents a gallon. Now, from April 3 to May 29, members can double the savings once a week on “Fuel-Up Fridays.”

To start saving, Amazon Prime members need to activate the perk and must link their accounts to Earnify. Then, members can find the 7,500 participating BP, Amoco, Thorntons, and AM/PM gas stations, and fuel up there.

“You can then apply the discount at any participating station by simply entering your phone number at the pump or using the Earnify app,” the Amazon Prime website explains.

Prime members registered with Earnify are always eligible for savings. When registered with Earnify (which is free), members receive a baseline savings of 5 cents, which is then stacked with 5 cents for being a Prime member, for a total of 10 cents in savings for every gallon of gas purchased at participating stations.

According to the company, members using the perk can save up to $70 a year on fuel costs, thanks to the promotion.

During the promotional period through May 29, Prime members will be able to stack an additional 10 cents per gallon, for a total of 20 cents off per gallon.

While the promotional offer only applies to one purchase on Fridays, the gas discount can be shared with an additional person over age 18 by setting up an Amazon Family account. This allows you to fill up two cars at the reduced price during the promotional period.

“That means that households can save a combined 40 cents per gallon across two fuel transactions made each Friday, helping families stretch their budgets even further,” said Jamil Ghani, Amazon’s worldwide vice president of Prime, in a blog post about the offer.

Fuel-Up Friday is not Amazon’s first promotional fuel savings event. Last year, Amazon rolled out another 20-cent-per-gallon promotion for a limited time in June.
