Founded in 2018, Petroapp is the first autonomous supplier in Saudi Arabia offering payment and management solutions that eliminate cash transactions. By doing so, the platform reduces the risk of fraud while providing real-time cost control for both business and government fleets. Petroapp has continuously expanded its service offerings, which now include car washes, oil changes, and tire and battery replacements, integrating artificial intelligence to enhance operational efficiency and enable predictive maintenance.
Global Reach and Impact

The platform operates through a network of 5,000 fuel stations across Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Thailand, and Nigeria. With projected revenues exceeding 10 billion SAR by 2025, Petroapp is committed to pioneering technologies that minimize costs, optimize operations, and drive the digital transformation of transport and logistics.
Funding to Propel Future Growth
This latest funding round will prepare Petroapp for an initial public offering on the Saudi Exchange (Tadawul) and accelerate its expansion into new international markets. The funds will also solidify its presence in existing markets, broadening its offerings for both retail and governmental sectors. Recently, Petroapp has been appointed to enhance Saudi vehicle management services and introduce new integrated vehicle management solutions.
