The Best Loyalty Program for Fuel, Gas, and Diesel in Slovenia

The fuel market in Slovenia is a dynamic and competitive environment in which leading brands strive to offer drivers not only quality fuel, but also convenient service, loyalty programmes and additional services.

The country is not a record-breaker for cheap fuel in Europe, but it is not an outsider either. However, thanks to the wide competition between Petrol, Shell and MOL, which lead the market, drivers always have a choice of where to fill up more favourably and take the chance to save money.

Who is the demand driver?

Several key groups are shaping demand for fuel. In the first place are owners of private cars, which form the basis of local consumption. Slovenians actively use cars for their daily journeys, given the well-developed road network and relatively short distances between cities.

A significant share of the market is occupied by commercial transport: trucks travelling along the EU-Balkany corridor and buses linking Ljubljana with the regions. International carriers stand out - Slovenia, being at the crossroads of European routes, receives thousands of transit vans every day, which refuel at large petrol stations along the motorways.

Agriculture, despite its modest size, contributes to diesel consumption - farmers and agribusinesses provide fuel for machinery, especially during the field season.

Tourism also plays a role: rental cars and campervans of tourists exploring the Alps and the coast regularly add to the sales statistics.

Not to forget government agencies: municipal transport, emergency services and utility companies buy fuel for their needs. Interestingly, even with the growing interest in electric vehicles, traditional fuel still dominates, especially in the trucking and agricultural segments.

The main retailers and what they offer

As mentioned above, there are major international and local petrol station chains such as Petrol, Shell and MOL, each with their own advantages and price points.

Petrol - the national leader in energy services

Petrol Slovenia is the country's leading petrol station operator, operating since 1945. During this time, the company has evolved from a classic oil firm into a major energy holding company. Thanks to its wide network, petrol stations can be found in major cities, such as Petrol Ljubljana, Petrol Maribor and Petrol Kranj, as well as in the most remote regions, and the weekend schedule makes the service available at any time.

In addition, the company has taken care of customer comfort by offering a convenient online shop. This is not just a catalogue of goods, but a full-fledged marketplace where you can buy everything from eco-friendly household chemicals to modern gadgets. 

Assortment: more than fuel

The company provides a wide range of products and services, combining key areas for the convenience of customers. First of all, these are fuels and oil products: petrol, diesel fuel, LPG and other types of transport fuels available at filling stations. In parallel, the company is developing energy solutions, including supplies of electricity, natural gas, heating oil, implementation of renewable energy technologies, and energy efficiency services.

For corporate customers, specialised business solutions focused on B2B cooperation and a range of services are available - transport rental, charging stations for electric vehicles and fleet management service. Industrial products such as industrial lubricants, petrochemicals and bitumen are also available. 

In addition to its core business areas, the company takes care of the everyday needs of its customers. Petrol flyer offers food, beverages, car accessories, home appliances, gadgets, hygiene products and household chemicals. Special attention is paid to leisure: the assortment includes products for gardening and sports equipment.

This comprehensive approach allows us to harmoniously combine innovations in energy with practical solutions for life, selecting the best options for each customer's individual needs.

Loyalty programme: opportunities and customised solutions

The Petrol club loyalty programme rewards you for every purchase you make at Petrol Club outlets - whether you fill up with petrol, pay for energy or even buy a takeaway coffee. For every euro you spend you get 1 gold point, which is automatically credited to your card, the main thing is not to forget to scan your card when paying.  Check your balance and find out about available benefits through the convenient user portal or mobile apps such as Moj Petrol and Petrol GO.

What makes the programme special is the availability of two card options: a regular Petrol loyalty card and a payment card. Each of them offers its own unique opportunities.

Regular card: simplicity with surprises

With this card, even routine purchases become a small investment in future benefits. Golden points that you save up can be exchanged for discounts not only on goods at petrol stations, but also on partner offers. You also get options such as special prices in catalogues, goods for ‘0 euros’, birthday gifts and the right to participate in prize games.

What's more, you can combine several cards and collect points together with family and friends for even more benefits.

Payment card: financial flexibility + bonuses

The payment card takes the concept of loyalty to a new level. In addition to accumulating Petrol clubcard points, it offers additional financial options such as deferred payment options, interest-free instalments of up to 24 instalments with a minimum payment of €10, payment by direct debit and exclusive offers for cardholders.

Also, the new cardholder receives a welcome bonus of 20 euros, which can be used for any purchases in Petrol. And this amount is valid for 2 years - it will not be lost if you don't spend it immediately.

And for those who prefer online shopping, there is a pleasant surprise: 20 euros more discount for the first purchase in Petrol eShop. The code will be sent to your mailbox immediately after the card is issued.

Bonuses for electric car owners

For drivers of electric cars there is a special ‘upgrade’ - the Petrol Club card for electric cars. It not only simplifies charging at Petrol stations across Europe with contactless authorisation, but also combines all the advantages of a payment card: monitoring of transactions via the Moj Petrol portal, flexible invoice payment options and even electronic invoices. With such a card, car charging becomes not only convenient, but also profitable.

Thus, the Petrol Club programme is not just a way to accumulate points. It is a comprehensive offer that combines financial flexibility, exclusive discounts and modern technological solutions. Want to save on gifts? Exchange points for goods, or get discounts on tyres and make yourself happy with new ‘shoes’ for your car. Dreaming of unexpected surprises? Wait until your birthday or enter a raffle. Need a financial cushion? A deferred payment card can help you plan your budget. And if you drive an electric car, Petrol Club will be your reliable companion on any journey.

Shell in Slovenia: recognised quality and new opportunities for drivers

Shell is not just a brand, but one of the leaders in the energy and petrochemical industry, present in more than 70 countries. For a long time in Slovenia, Shell was only active in the trucking sector, but that changed in 2023, with a network of 39 petrol stations now available to all drivers.

With the arrival of Shell, Slovenian motorists now have access to premium quality Shell V-Power fuels, which are recommended by leading car manufacturers such as Ferrari and BMW-M. In addition to fuel, petrol stations offer Shell branded coffee, shops with groceries and car accessories, car washes and convenient parking areas.

Promotions for loyal customers

The Company regularly delights its loyal customers with favourable promotions and drawings, making every trip even more pleasant.

For example, one of the most anticipated events of 2025 is a prize game ‘Win 1000 euros Shell V-Power’, which is running from 4 February to 27 April at all Shell filling stations in Slovenia. The conditions are simple: fill up three times or more with at least 25 litres of Shell FuelSave or V-Power, scan the QR code at the station and challenge your fortune. But that's not all: every week Shell raffles off an extra €100 worth of cards. So, even if you don't get lucky with the jackpot, you still have a chance to leave with a ‘plus’. Besides, even if luck is not on your side in the draw, Shell will still take care of a nice bonus. Everyone who participates in the campaign and refuels at least once will be able to enjoy a fragrant espresso, a crispy croissant or a hearty hot dog for just 1 euro.

Thus, you will not only be able to fill up with quality fuel and drink delicious coffee, but also get pleasant bonuses and prizes from time to time. 

Shell card: convenience for business on the road

The Shell card is designed specifically for legal entities and individual entrepreneurs. It makes cashless payments more convenient and transparent by combining all travelling expenses in one account.

This card is not limited to fuel purchases. It can be used to pay tolls, bridge and tunnel tolls, ferries, car washes, car parks and even fines. It helps drivers and companies optimise costs and avoid the hassle of dealing with the different payment systems in Europe.

In addition, Shell offers VAT refunds, which makes using the card even more favourable. And for regular customers there are discounts on tolls - an additional opportunity to save money.

Although there is a monthly fee for using the card, its benefits for business are clear: time and money savings, convenience, cost control and favourable conditions for frequent travel.

Thus, with Shell's entry into the retail market in Slovenia, drivers have not only quality fuel and world-class service, but also convenient tools to manage costs on the road.

MOL - quality fuel and business benefits

MOL Group is the leading integrated oil and gas corporation in Central and Eastern Europe, which plays a key role in the region's energy sector, and its geography of operations covers more than 30 countries around the world.

In recent years, MOL Group has significantly expanded its presence in Slovenia. Today, the network has more than 170 petrol stations, providing drivers with premium quality fuel and a modern level of service, supplementing the basic service with bonuses such as shops, cafes, car washes and customer loyalty programmes. This makes the company one of the largest players in the country's fuel market.

MOL Group Gold Card: convenience and control for business

For companies involved in international shipping and transport, efficient management of fuel costs plays a key role. The MOL Group Gold Europe loyalty programme offers an international gold card that not only allows you to save money on refuelling, but also to control all fuel transactions with maximum security. The card is valid in 15 countries, providing convenient access to a wide network of petrol stations.

Among the main advantages of the card are such points as savings due to favourable conditions and VAT refund, secure payments and protection from unauthorised use and additional services - from car wash to toll payment.

One of the unique features of the card is the flexibility of who can use it and how. A company can choose three card options, depending on its needs. Number plate linked card - only used for a specific vehicle, preventing unauthorised refuelling. Garage card - suitable for fleets with frequently changing vehicles as it can be used by any driver who knows the PIN code. Barrel card - ideal for buying fuel in jerry cans or tanks, also requires a PIN for security.

With the MOL Group Gold card, you can clearly limit the range of purchases available. For example, the company may only allow payment for a certain type of fuel, oils, car washes or even specific items in the shop at the petrol station. This prevents unnecessary expenses and makes cost accounting as transparent as possible.

How to choose ‘your’ petrol station?

Choosing a petrol station depends not only on location, but also on drivers' preferences - some are looking for favourable discounts, some trust the proven quality of premium fuel, and some choose convenience and service.  

Research information about the company

A company's reputation and its place in the market matter. For example, Petrol is the Slovenian ‘state-owned’ with the densest network, especially in the hinterland and mountains. Ideal if your route takes you away from the motorways. Plus: grocery shops, stable prices and often 24-hour stations. Shell is a newcomer to the country's market, but with a global reputation. Bet on premium V-Power fuel and legendary coffee. Choose it if you want to ‘treat’ your car and yourself. MOL is a Hungarian brand with a European standard that offers uniform quality at all stations.

Look for a price-quality balance

Download the companies' mobile apps, they show current prices on a map. Ask about the quality of fuel. Often the car itself can ‘tell’ you about it. The middle and high price segment is usually better, and long-term savings in the future may cause an increase in service costs.

Loyalty programmes and promotions

Many chains offer loyalty programmes, but more often for entrepreneurs. But discounts and promotions are available almost everywhere. Petrol discounts, promotions from Shell or new opportunities from MOL - all these are available to the public, you just have to be lazy and search for information.  If you fill up often and a lot, these options can bring quite significant savings.

Availability of additional services

If quality service and convenient infrastructure are important to you, choose large petrol stations with shops, cafes, car washes and other options.
