PRIO's figures range from 250+ to 300+ (after buying 55 Q8 sites). A 2020 deal let Prio cards be used for standard fuels at Shell; that may be outdated.
Site counts are the issuer's own claim, quoted word for word. We don't map or verify individual sites; check the issuer's locator before you rely on a station.
