Amazon Prime Members Can Save Nearly $70 Per Year on Gas
Amazon Prime members can save 10 cents per gallon at select gas stations. See how to sign up for discounts.
With fuel costs still eating into household budgets, even small savings at the pump can add up over the course of a year. One way to beat those rising costs at the pump is with an Amazon Prime membership.
One of the major online retailers’ latest perks allows members to save 10 cents per gallon at select bp America, Amoco and ampm gas stations across the U.S.
For most drivers, that’s an average savings of nearly $70 per year — or nearly half the cost of an annual Prime membership, and just the latest in a long line of perks from the ecommerce giant.

If you aren't a member yet or have been thinking about whether you should cancel Amazon Prime, it's worth doing the math on how much you could save on gas by activating the 10 cents per gallon discount.
Learn more about how to enjoy savings at the pump as an Amazon Prime member.
How to save at the pump with Amazon Prime
To activate the 10 cents per gallon savings, Prime members can visit amazon.com/fuelsavings. You’ll need to set up a free earnify account with bp and then link it to your Prime account.
You can then use bp's earnify app store locator to find the nearest bp, Amoco or ampm gas station where you can save.
To redeem at the pump, simply input your phone number or pay with whatever payment method you’ve linked to your account. You'll enjoy a discount of five cents from earnify and five cents from Amazon Prime, for a total of 10 cents off per gallon.
What other perks come with a Prime membership?
An instant 10 cents per gallon discount at the pump may be one of the best Amazon Prime benefits, but it's far from the only one.
Amazon offers many other ways to save on other essentials like groceries, prescription medications and more. As long as you take the time to learn about and use all the perks that come with membership, it's easy to make the $139 per year you'll fork out for Amazon Prime worth it.
The savings on gas can already make up for about half of that annual fee. Here are a few of the other benefits that may help you save even more:
- Free Prime delivery. Tens of millions of Amazon’s most popular items are available with free Same-Day or One-Day Delivery.
- Save even more with No-Rush Shipping. If you don't need your items overnight, Amazon offers either an instant discount or an automatic reward credit to members who choose the free No-Rush shipping option at checkout. You'll enjoy a little extra savings and still get your delivery within six business days.
- Exclusive deals and shopping events like Prime Day and Prime Big Deal Days.
- Access to a huge collection of premium programming on Prime Video and Prime member-exclusive live sports, including Thursday Night Football, WNBA, and
NWSL. - Ad-free access to more than 100 million songs and millions of podcast episodes with Amazon Music, which now includes Audible.

- Instant access to free games, a free Twitch channel subscription and more gaming benefits with Prime Gaming.
- Unlimited access to thousands of ebooks, audiobooks and magazines on Amazon Kindle is included with membership.
