Market Rate / No Price Protection

Who this plan is for

You prefer flexibility over price certainty and may benefit if market prices move lower.

Common questions

How does FuelSaver Budget work?

Fox Fuel sets a monthly payment from your estimated usage and a forecast of the season’s average market price, billed in ten payments from August through May. Each delivery is priced at Fox Fuel’s market and discount rate on the delivery date, so the price can change between deliveries.

Who is FuelSaver Budget best for?

It suits households that want steady monthly payments but are comfortable with market-rate pricing on each delivery. If you prefer flexibility over price certainty, carry no price-protection enrollment fee, and want to benefit when market prices move lower, this plan matches that approach.

What does FuelSaver Budget cost?

There is no locked price and no cap; each delivery bills at Fox Fuel’s daily market and discount rate, so your cost moves with the market. You pay in ten monthly payments from August through May on a 400 gallon minimum, with no price-protection enrollment fee.

How is FuelSaver Budget different from Fox Fuel’s other plans?

It is the only plan with no price protection, so deliveries always bill at market rate. SmartPay Cap Budget caps your rate, Fixed Price Budget locks one price for the season, and Safeguard Prepay locks a price paid in full up front. FuelSaver trades that protection for flexibility.

How do I enroll in FuelSaver Budget?

Enrollment opens August 1 and runs through October 15, 2026 in the Fox Fuel customer portal, which connects your selection to your Fox Fuel account. Because FuelSaver Budget bills at market rate, no price lock is tied to the August 15 original-rate deadline, but enrollment still closes October 15.

Enrollment closes October 15, 2026.
