The short answer
LMCT+ is opening its own LMCT+-branded petrol stations — it is not a discount partnership with 7-Eleven, United, Ampol or any other existing fuel chain. Founder Adrian Portelli launched the first site in Preston, Melbourne (corner of Gower Street and Plenty Road) in April 2026, and has flagged a national rollout that has been widely reported as potentially reaching 50+ sites over time.
Access is members-only. According to early reporting, members can fill up at approximately $1 per litre, versus typical market rates around $1.90–$2.00 per litre. Membership comes either through an existing LMCT+ monthly subscription or a separate fuel-only annual membership reported around $99.99 / year.
ROOPON is independent and not affiliated with LMCT+. The information here summarises publicly reported facts so you can research safely — always verify the current price, location list and membership terms on the LMCT+ site or app before paying.

What is actually open today
First confirmed site
LMCT+ Preston
Corner of Gower Street and Plenty Road, Preston VIC
First confirmed site: LMCT+ Preston — corner of Gower Street and Plenty Road, Preston VIC, Melbourne. This is reported as the launch location for the LMCT+ fuel network.
Other locations: Portelli has publicly described the Preston station as the first of a planned national rollout, with media coverage referencing the potential for many more sites over time. As at the publish date of this guide, additional locations have not been individually confirmed as open.
How to confirm a site is live: check the official LMCT+ website or in-app site list before driving. Operators in this category often run a soft launch period before fully publishing hours and member-pricing terms.

How LMCT+ fuel membership is reported to work
1) Members-only fuel access
LMCT+ stations operate as members-only facilities — comparable in structure to a Costco-style model, where the discount sits behind a paid membership rather than a public price at the pump.
2) Two reported access paths
Australian media coverage describes two ways to qualify: keep an existing LMCT+ monthly subscription (commonly reported in the $20–$100/month range across LMCT+ tiers), or take a separate fuel-only annual membership reported around $99.99 / year. Always verify the current tier and price on the operator's own site before paying.
3) Headline pricing reported around $1/L
Launch-era reporting referenced approximately $0.99–$1.00 per litre for members, against typical market rates near $1.90–$2.00 per litre. Portelli has publicly acknowledged the venture is expected to run at a loss in the early phase. Headline pricing can change — check the live in-app price before relying on it.
4) Tied into the broader LMCT+ ecosystem
The fuel network has been positioned as a "rewards hub" for the wider LMCT+ membership — that is, fuel pricing is one benefit among partner discounts and promotional giveaways. So the total value depends on how many parts of the membership you actually use.
Five things to verify before paying for the fuel membership
01
Confirm the location is actually open
Only the first LMCT+ petrol station (Preston, Melbourne) has been publicly confirmed as open. Future locations have been flagged but not all are live. Always verify on the official LMCT+ site or app before driving.
02
Which membership tier you need
Access has been reported through either an existing LMCT+ monthly subscription or a new fuel-only annual membership. Confirm the current tier requirement and exact price on the LMCT+ site before paying.
03
How the per-litre pricing works
Early reporting referenced approximately $1 per litre for members at the launch site. Pricing can change, may be capped per fill, and may vary by location once more sites open. Check the live in-app price.
04
Membership cost vs realistic savings
Calculate annual fuel spend honestly. If you fill up rarely or live far from the open site, the membership fee can wipe out the saving. Distance to the nearest open LMCT+ station is the biggest variable.
05
Renewal and cancellation terms
Check the billing cycle, auto-renewal, and cancellation process before subscribing. The ACCC publishes general guidance on subscription traps at accc.gov.au.
Why a static "LMCT+ petrol station list" goes stale fast
LMCT+ has flagged a national rollout, but new builds, planning approvals and fit-outs run on long timelines. That means any third-party "LMCT+ petrol station list" you find online is likely to be incomplete or outdated within weeks of publication.
Always check the operator's own current site list before assuming a site near you is open. Soft-launch hours, members-only access, and pricing can also differ from what was originally announced.
