What is MazoutBuddy!?
The price of heating oil changes almost every day. On a 2000 litre delivery, a difference of 5 cents per litre is already 100 euros. MazoutBuddy! is a small app that tells you at a glance what heating oil costs today, what it cost yesterday and what it will cost tomorrow.
No account, no ads, no fuss. Just open it and look.
Our specialty
Sometimes we already know tomorrow's price.
Often the evening before, you see in the app what heating oil will cost tomorrow. So you know whether it's better to order today or wait a day. Only what is really known is shown: never a guess.
Today's price
Tomorrow's price
Order today, or wait a day?
What can the app do?
Today, yesterday and tomorrow
Today's price big and clear, yesterday's small beside it, and tomorrow's as soon as we know it. With an arrow: did it get more expensive or cheaper?
Your quantity
Choose whether you follow the price for 2000 litres or more (the default), or for less than 2000 litres. The whole app, charts and alarms included, follows your choice.
Price evolution
See how the price developed over the past week, month, 3 months or the whole year. Tap the line for the price on a particular day.
Smart alarms
Let the app warn you: on any price change, only when it rises or falls, when tomorrow's price is announced, or when the total for an amount you choose crosses a target price. Pick the time of day, and whether you also want sound or vibration (a pop-up always shows).
In your language
Dutch, French and English. The app follows your phone's language, or pick your own.
Truly ad-free
No ads, no account and no third-party advertising or tracking services. What you see is what you need: the price.
How it works
Open the app
Today's price is right there. Pull down to refresh. If the app stays open, it fetches the newest price by itself every 10 minutes.
Pick your quantity
Tap the gear, choose Volume and say whether your price is for 2000 litres or more, or for less than 2000 litres.
Set an alarm
Open Alarms in the menu, tap + and set what you want to know. Every alarm gets a name automatically ('Alarm 1') and you can always switch it off without deleting it.
Leave the rest to us
Even when the app is closed, your phone checks the prices now and then. If something changes that you want to know about, you get a notification, at the time you chose.
Behind the scenes
Our own server follows the prices several times a day, checks them and stores them. That keeps the app fast and the price history grows every day.
MazoutBuddy! is an information app. The price your supplier charges may differ.
Free
Free. Forever.
We made an ad-free, no-bullshit app for the Belgians that keeps working for free, forever. No trial period, no premium version, no hidden costs.
But an app doesn't run on air: the server, the data and the development cost money and time. Because we show no ads and sell nothing about you, we depend on donations.
Want it to stay around? Then make a (monthly) donation and keep us alive!
How you can help
A coffee
Once, whenever you like. A small gesture that means a lot.
Monthly

Frequently asked questions
Is it really free?
Yes. No ads, no subscription and no paid version. Donations are voluntary.
Which devices does it run on?
MazoutBuddy! is coming to Android phones and to iPhone. At the top of this page you can see which versions are already available.
Why don't I always see tomorrow's price?
We only know tomorrow's price once it is known, usually the evening before. Until then the app says 'So far unknown'. It never shows a guess.
Do alarms also work when the app is closed?
Yes. Your phone checks the prices in the background about every half hour. Some phones postpone that to save power; then switch off battery saving for MazoutBuddy!. An alarm held back by the time window you chose arrives as soon as that window opens.
How far back does the price history go?
For 2000 litres or more, up to a year back. For less than 2000 litres about 3 months for now. Our own history grows every day.
Do you collect data about me?
There is no account and the app contains no ads or third-party tracking services. It only asks our server for the prices, like any app or website does. In doing so our server counts how many requests there are and roughly how many users, without keeping your IP address in those statistics (see the privacy policy). Your settings and alarms stay on your phone.
What's the lowest heating oil price today, or the best supplier?
The price we show is just the official heating oil price at that moment. By the time it's delivered, every supplier adds their own costs on top, so you'll never actually buy at the official price, just a bit more. The ideal heating oil supplier is about more than just the lowest price. Delivery time, payment options and friendly service matter too!
