Amazon Prime members who link their account to the BPme app receive an automatic 10 cents off per gallon at BP and Amoco stations. During promotional periods, that discount climbs to 15, 20, or occasionally 25 cents per gallon. Setup takes 5 minutes and requires zero ongoing maintenance. For an average driver filling up 45 gallons per month, this single activation saves $54 or more per year.
Expert Note
BP and Amazon periodically revise the terms of this partnership. The 10-cent base discount has been stable since the program's launch, but promotional offers and eligibility requirements can change. Always verify the current discount level in the BPme app before assuming the rate is unchanged. Terms at time of publication: 10 cents per gallon standard, paid via BPme at participating stations.
Step-by-Step Activation
Activating the Prime gas discount requires a few one-time steps. After the initial setup, the discount applies automatically every time you pay through the BPme app.

| 3 | Navigate to the Prime section in the app | 30 sec |

| 6 | At the pump, open BPme and start fueling | Ongoing |
Real Savings Numbers
At the standard 10-cent discount and 45 gallons per month: 45 gallons x 10 cents x 12 months = $54/year. In our testing over 4 months at BP stations in two markets, the average effective discount was 13 cents per gallon when counting promotional periods, reaching an annualized savings rate of approximately $70/year.
On a single fill-up of 15 gallons, the discount saves $1.50. On a large SUV fill-up of 25 gallons, the savings are $2.50 per visit at the standard rate.
Stacking With Other Savings
With a Gas Rewards Credit Card
The BPme app accepts credit cards as the payment method. Pay via BPme with a 5% gas rewards card and you receive the 10-cent Prime discount on the posted price, then earn 5% on the discounted amount you actually pay. On a 15-gallon fill-up at $3.50/gallon: Prime saves $1.50, your net price is $3.40/gallon, and the 5% card earns $2.55 back. Total effective savings on that fill-up: $4.05 versus no program at all.
With the Upside App
Check whether your BP location participates in Upside before assuming you can stack. Some BP stations participate and some do not. When a BP location does participate, you can potentially earn the Prime discount, Upside cash back, and a gas card reward simultaneously.
With Earnify Points
The Prime discount and Earnify point accumulation operate simultaneously. Each BPme fill-up earns Earnify points toward future discounts in addition to applying the immediate Prime discount. The points earned can then fund additional per-gallon savings on future visits.
Limitations to Know
- Valid only at participating BP and Amoco stations, not at other brands
- Payment must go through the BPme app, not through a separate card swipe at the pump
- Promotional timing is unpredictable; the base rate is 10 cents with promos adding more
- Prime subscription must remain active for the discount to continue applying
Comparison to Other Discount Sources
The BP Prime discount (10 cents) beats Shell Fuel Rewards Silver status (5 cents) for casual members. It trails Shell Gold status (10 cents on first fill-up only, plus partner stacking potential) for high-volume Shell users. Costco with the Costco Anywhere Visa delivers the largest per-gallon savings but requires a Costco location on your route. The BP Prime discount is the simplest and most widely accessible discount available to Amazon Prime subscribers without needing a warehouse club near your home.
Pro Tip
Check the BPme app's promotions tab before each fill-up. BP frequently pushes limited-time offers for higher discounts to app users who engage. Opening the app right before fueling takes 10 seconds and can reveal a 15 or 20-cent promotion above the standard 10-cent baseline.
