Esso: Pay for fuel, get points

ExxonMobil

About this app

Say cheerio to queuing and pay with the new Esso App - a speedy and secure way to pay for your fuel from the comfort of your car.
Fuelling with the Esso App is as easy as 1-2-3!
1. Select your pump
2. Approve your payment
3. Start fuelling when prompted.

Here’s a few things you should know about the app:
• Pay for petrol or diesel at participating Esso branded stations with PayPal or Apple Pay for quick and secure payment
• New! From 1 June you will be able to collect Nectar points on your transactions (without the need to carry your Nectar card)
• As an additional incentive, from 1 June you can collect 1000 bonus Nectar points. Collect 250 bonus Nectar points after your first fill of 30 litres or more using the app, another 250 bonus points the second time and an extra 500 points on your third fill.
• We suggest setting me up at home before you arrive at the station so you’re all ready to go!
• The app will ask you to select the maximum amount you’d like to fuel. This value will be reserved in your account until your bank can see how much you’ve actually fuelled
• You can choose a maximum amount of fuel between £5 and £140 to reduce the value reserved in your account.
• All your digital receipts are stored in one convenient location and emailed to you
• Find your nearest Esso petrol station

We’re still rolling out the Esso App to all of our sites across the UK as quick as we can, so if your local site doesn’t have it just yet, it will soon! You can check the app’s Esso station locator to find a mobile enabled site near you.

Ratings and reviews

Good app making paying easy. Recent issues I have experienced is nectar needs verifying quite regularly, slow to show fueling has completed and paid, offers slow to load or fails. Main issue now is using nectar points to get money off fuel has never worked, I have no idea if this is a location specific offer. update. Redeeming nectar points for money off was never fixed, I doubt it works for anyone.

Really like the app when it works, there have been a lot of updates but since the last one the biometric unlock has stopped working and causes an app error. I have to use my PIN to unlock. There is still an ongoing issue when fuelling that even in a strong signal area (and with someone holding onto my phone in the car to keep the screen activated) the payment/fuelling graphics don't always process correctly and get stuck on 'fuelling now'. I have to check email for receipt.

The app was supposed to make it easier to refuel. Constant issues with logging in/payment. Several times now I've pulled up at my local Esso station and the app won't work and tells me to pay in store. I asked the guy on the till and he said it should be working (Ripon) but he has had loads of complaints it doesn't work. I've now decided to get fuel from somewhere else as the only reason I use Esso is for the rewards in app but if I can't do that what's the point.
