Terms of use

Version 2026-11-08. Last updated 2026-11-08. If these terms change in a way that matters, the app will ask you to agree again before you carry on.

Who we are

Mapish is operated by APPSTECH LIMITED (New Zealand company number 6340573, NZBN 9429046246547). Contact us at [email protected].

Agreeing to these terms

By using the Mapish app, the business console or this website you agree to these terms and to our privacy policy. You can browse the map without an account. Reporting prices, logging fill-ups, setting alerts and business features need one.

What Mapish shows

Mapish shows fuel stations, fuel prices, businesses and their specials from community reports, business owners and public data. Prices and specials may be wrong, out of date or unavailable. They are a guide only; confirm at the station or shop. Savings figures are estimates worked out from nearby prices, not a promise. Nothing in these terms takes away rights you have under the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 or the Fair Trading Act 1986 that cannot be excluded.

Your account

Keep your sign-in secure; you are responsible for what happens on your account. We may suspend or close an account that breaks these terms. You can delete your account in the app at any time; the privacy policy explains what that removes.

What you add

• Report only prices and details you have seen yourself, honestly and by hand.
• Photos should show price boards or products. Don’t include people’s faces, number plates or anything unlawful or offensive.
• You keep ownership of what you add. You let us store, show and use the price information in your reports to run Mapish, including after you delete your account (by then it is no longer linked to you).
• We may hide, correct or remove anything added to Mapish.

Fair use

No spam, false prices, scraping or bulk copying of the data, getting around rate limits or security, harassment, pretending to be a business or another person, or anything that interferes with the service.

Driving safety

Don’t use the app while driving. Set your trip before you leave or let a passenger use it. Always follow the road rules.

Businesses and station owners

If you manage a business on Mapish you must be allowed to act for it. Prices and specials you publish must be accurate, current and lawful, and you are responsible for them. We may check your claim, label or remove content that is wrong or misleading, and show community prices next to yours. We never show you which individual drivers saved, visited or rated your business.

Payments, subscriptions and refunds

Some features need a paid plan: Plus, Pro and Premium for drivers, and Starter, Gold and Diamond for businesses. The features and price of each plan are shown before you buy. Prices are in New Zealand dollars and include GST.

• Who charges you. Plans bought on mapish.app (the business console, under Account or Plans) are sold by APPSTECH LIMITED and paid through Stripe. You enter your card on Stripe’s page; we never see or store your card number.
• Renewal. A paid plan renews automatically each billing period (monthly, or yearly if you chose a yearly plan) until you cancel. We email you when a plan starts, changes, renews, fails to be paid or ends. If a payment fails, the plan stops when the payment provider gives up retrying.
• Free time. If an offer gives you free time first, you won’t be charged until it ends, and we remind you 7 days and 1 day before. Cancel before then and you pay nothing.
• How to cancel. Sign in at the business console, open Account (personal plans) or Plans (a business), and choose Cancel or Manage billing. You can cancel at any time. Cancelling stops the next renewal.
• What happens when you cancel. Your plan stays on until the end of the period you have paid for, then it ends and the paid features stop. Your account stays, on the free plan. A business keeps its basic listing on the map. Specials above the free allowance go back to draft; we don’t delete them, and you can submit them again if you take a plan again.
• Upgrading and downgrading. A higher plan starts straight away and the difference for the rest of the period is charged then. A lower plan applies from your next billing date.

Refunds

• Within 7 days. If you ask for a refund within 7 days of your paid plan starting, you get a full refund of what you paid for the current period, and the plan ends straight away. You can do this yourself on the same page where you cancel (Refund). Refunds go back to your original card, through Stripe.
• After 7 days. You can still ask. We look at each request and tell you our decision by email. Until then your plan keeps working. We don’t refund part of a period (no part-month refunds).
• If something is wrong. If a paid feature doesn’t work as it should, tell us at [email protected]. We will put it right, including a refund where the law says you are owed one, whatever the 7 days say.
• Free time, bonus days and rewards were never charged, so there is nothing to refund.

Your consumer rights

Nothing in these terms takes away your rights under the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 or the Fair Trading Act 1986 that cannot be excluded. For example, if a paid service is not provided with reasonable care and skill or doesn’t do what we said it would, you may be entitled to have it fixed, or to a refund. These rights apply to you as a consumer. If you buy a plan for a business, the law may treat your rights differently.

Reporting content

If something on Mapish is wrong, harmful or about you, use Report on the station, special or photo in the app, or email [email protected] with a link or description of the content and why it should be removed. We aim to reply within two working days, and act faster on anything harmful (see Reviews, reports and blocking). This includes complaints under the Harmful Digital Communications Act 2015.

Reviews, reports and blocking

Anyone signed in can rate and review places. We have zero tolerance for objectionable content and abusive users. That means no hate, harassment, threats, bullying, sexual or violent content, content that is illegal, spam or fake reviews, or other people’s private details. This applies to reviews, photos, names and anything else you add.

• Report. Use Report on any review in the app, or email [email protected]. Tell us why. You don’t need to tell the person you reported.
• Block. You can block another person from their review. Their reviews are then hidden from you. You can unblock them later.
• What we do. We review every report. We may hide or remove the content, warn the person, and suspend or close their account, for a first serious offence or for repeat offences. We may do this without notice if it is needed to keep people safe.
• How fast. We aim to act on reports within 24 hours. This is our best effort, not a guarantee: we are a small team, and a report sent at the weekend or overnight may take longer. We act first on anything that looks dangerous or unlawful.
• If you disagree. If we removed your content or closed your account and you think we got it wrong, email [email protected] and we will look again.

Other services

Maps are provided by Google, and navigation opens in the maps app on your phone; their own terms apply. Links to other services are not endorsements.

Limits on our responsibility

We provide Mapish as it is, as far as the law allows. We are not responsible for decisions you make based on prices or specials shown, or for purchases, fines or vehicle damage (including filling with the wrong fuel).

Changes

We may update these terms. When a change matters, the app shows the new version and asks you to agree before you carry on.
