Summary
The backend consumes the UK Government Fuel Finder API (fuel-finder.service.gov.uk) via OAuth2 client credentials. Before public launch, confirm that the API terms of service permit:
- Redistribution of fuel price data to consumers via a mobile app
- Caching of data (currently cached in-memory on restart)
- Commercial use (if Fueller becomes a paid or ad-supported product)
- Attribution requirements — does the app UI need to credit the data source?
Action
- Review API T&Cs at the UK Gov Fuel Finder developer portal
- If redistribution is restricted: explore alternative data sources or apply for a redistribution licence
- Document the agreed terms in
