Please note: gas stations will not be Immediately available everywhere in clients. Waze will start rolling out the gas stations feature in the client country by country. As soon as they see that there are enough stations to launch with in a given country, it'll be released. It's hard to say exactly how many stations are needed in each country to be ready there.
In some countries, you’ll see that the editor is missing a list of local gas brands. Not to worry though. You can help by submitting your country’s gas brands here.
