If you’ve ever wished for more flexibility when paying for fuel, you might be surprised to learn that **Afterpay**, the popular buy-now, pay-later service, can be used at several petrol stations across Australia. With Afterpay, you can split your fuel payments into four manageable, interest-free installments. Whether you’re using the **Afterpay app** or the **Afterpay Plus card**, fueling up has never been easier. So, how does it work, and where can you use it? Let’s break it down.

## **How to Use Afterpay for Fuel**

First things first, while Afterpay isn’t directly accepted at every petrol station, it can be used at stations that accept **Apple Pay**, **Google Pay**, or **Samsung Pay** through **Afterpay Plus**. By setting up your Afterpay card in your mobile wallet, you’ll be able to pay for fuel with Afterpay as long as the station supports one of these mobile payment options.

If you don’t have **Afterpay Plus**, you can still use the **standard Afterpay app** to buy fuel gift cards or vouchers from participating retailers, allowing you to pay for your petrol in installments. However, using Afterpay Plus with mobile payments is often the most straightforward way to get fuel on the spot.

## **Petrol Stations Accepting Afterpay**

Here’s a quick look at where you can use Afterpay (and Afterpay Plus) to pay for fuel:

### **Ampol**

Ampol is one of the major petrol stations in Australia that supports **Afterpay** payments. By linking your Afterpay account to Apple Pay, Google Pay, or Samsung Pay, you can easily pay for your fuel in four installments at Ampol locations across the country.

### **Metro Petroleum**

Metro Petroleum is another station that accepts Afterpay via **Apple Pay**, **Google Pay**, or **Samsung Pay**. By using the Afterpay Plus card linked to these mobile wallets, you can fuel up and pay later.

## **Other Ways to Use Afterpay for Fuel**

While not every petrol station directly accepts Afterpay yet, there are ways around it:

• **Fuel Gift Cards:** Some retailers offer Afterpay as a payment option for gift cards. You can purchase a fuel gift card through the Afterpay app, use it at participating stations, and still break the cost into four payments.

• **Third-Party Platforms:** Several third-party platforms sell petrol vouchers or gift cards for use at multiple stations. Many of these platforms accept Afterpay, so you can buy fuel vouchers that can be redeemed later.

## **Key Tips for Using Afterpay at Petrol Stations**

1\. **Check Payment Methods:** Not all petrol stations accept Apple Pay, Google Pay, or Samsung Pay, so it’s essential to verify payment options before you fill up.

2\. **Track Your Spending:** While Afterpay spreads your payments, keeping track of how much you’re spending on fuel can help you stay within your budget.

3\. **Stay Informed:** Keep an eye on which petrol stations are expanding their payment methods to include Afterpay or Afterpay Plus, as more options may be available in the future.
