National average petrol 95, diesel and LPG prices in EUR per litre, including all duties and taxes, with each country's own source, licence and credit line. Returns 28 of the 111 markets published on the site; the other 83 are withheld and the response says by whom and why.
Try/api/fuel-prices

fuel
Keep only stations reporting this fuel.
near
`lat,lon` — filter by radius and sort nearest first.
km
Radius in kilometres for `near`. Default 25.
sort
`price` sorts cheapest first instead of nearest first.
limit
Maximum stations returned. Default and maximum 5000.
GET/api/widget/{slug}
A self-contained HTML card for one market, styled to inherit the host page's background. Same rights gate as the JSON endpoints.
Try/api/widget/germany
GET/api/widget/embed.js
A dependency-free script that renders a price card into any element carrying `data-fuelwide="{slug}"`. Include it once per page; it renders every matching element and re-scans for elements mounted later. Carries only the markets we may redistribute, and links back to the source page from the host's own markup.

JavaScript — price, units, date and credit

const response = await fetch("https://fuelwide.com/api/fuel-prices/germany");
if (!response.ok) throw new Error(`FuelWide HTTP ${response.status}`);
const data = await response.json();
const price = data.observations.find(item => item.fuelType === "petrol95");
if (price && price.price != null) {

}

Read observations rather than prices. The bare price map is kept for back-compatibility and cannot tell you what kind of average you are holding, what it is a measurement of, or when it was measured as opposed to fetched. Each observation can.

Update frequency varies by publisher: read source.cadence on each observation. observedAtis the price’s reference date; retrievedAt records collection, and stale flags a delayed observation. A newly fetched weekly or monthly average is still a weekly or monthly average. Check currency, unit and price basis before comparing it with a station quote, and preserve missing values as missing.

Station-level prices

Every forecourt in a covered market, with coordinates, brand where the feed publishes one, opening hours and every grade sold. No key and no cap — the whole dataset is a few megabytes and we would rather you built on it than scraped it.

If you need one of these, licence it from the publisher — every one is named on our sources page. When a decision is recorded, the market reappears here without anyone editing this page.

Attribution

Free to use, including commercially. What the licences require is that you credit the bodies that produced the data — a FuelWide credit on its own does not satisfy them. Every response carries its own attribution string; reproduce that. Across everything the API currently serves, the lines are:

Roadmap

Coming next: more station-level countries, US state and metro endpoints, and historical series. The Fair Price Score now ships on every market the API serves, as a fairPriceScore object. If you are building on this and need something, tell us — the roadmap is mostly other people’s requests.
