Why the brand tag is the weakest thing on the card
A brand tells you who painted the canopy. It does not tell you whether the site is open at two in the morning, whether the diesel lane fits a rig, or whether the card reader works. Those are the questions this map tries to answer, and where it cannot, it says so instead of colouring the pin green.
Counted city by city
Refuelia counts stations inside the cities it covers and stores the result with a date. There is no national scrape and no extrapolation, so a Mobil in a town nobody has counted is simply not in this number. That is a smaller claim than a total, and it is one that holds.
Questions drivers actually ask
Are Exxon and Mobil counted together?
Yes, along with ExxonMobil, because OpenStreetMap carries all three for the same network.
How current is the count?
The date is printed on the page. City counts refresh on a rolling basis, and the page shows the oldest of them rather than the newest — the honest end of the range.

Every one of these pages is built the same way and carries the same warning: the number is what has been counted in the cities this map covers, not a national total, and it says "at least" for that reason.
