Better With Age: GasBuddy celebrates anniversary with more ways and more places to save on gas than any other travel or navigation app
GasBuddy launched June 1999 as a crowdsourced website for drivers to enter gas prices they spot around town.
Boston, MA, May 21, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- On the eve of its 21st anniversary, GasBuddy, the travel and navigation app that is used by more North American drivers to save money on gas, today revealed that it gives drivers more ways to save on fuel — 27 — than any other app, and has announced the 27 WAYS TO SAVE game to prove it.
“It’s true. I counted,” said GasBuddy’s chief marketing officer, Michael DiLorenzo, confirming the impressive amount.
GasBuddy launched June 1999 as a crowdsourced website for drivers to enter gas prices they spot around town. It provided consumers three primary ways to save money on gas. Two decades later, there are two dozen additional ways.
To celebrate these important milestones, this morning GasBuddy has launched the “27 WAYS TO SAVE” game, a nod to one of the most popular “stay-at-home” activities that has taken place in North American over the last two months, bingo.
“For more than 20 years, GasBuddy had a focused mission to help drivers save money on gasoline. We researched, tested, and created features and partnerships with this objective in mind,” said DiLorenzo. “Pennies make dollars, and for millions of North Americans, there’s never been a more important time than right now.”
