What info2fuel does and doesn't do

Plain English: what info2fuel does for fuel buyers and sellers, what it never does, how it is paid, and what the free tools can and can't tell you.

What we do

  • Publish free pre-deal tools: Scam Check, Price Check, Market Snapshot (EIA data) and a Document Kit written by info2fuel
  • Run an anonymous trading portal where verified buyers post requests and verified sellers post offers
  • Check counterparties before any introduction: company records, the people, a live call, documents, procedure, sanctions lists
  • Put confidentiality, non-circumvention and the fee in writing (NCNDA/IMFPA) before introducing anyone
  • Introduce buyer and seller and relay documents unchanged, keeping the chain as short as possible
  • Tell you honestly when we can't help or when an offer doesn't hold up

What we don't do

  • Own, store, refine, sell or ship petroleum products, or take title to them
  • Hold client money, escrow funds or issue bank instruments
  • Charge upfront, registration, “processing” or document fees, or forward offers that require them
  • Guarantee that any deal will happen, at any price, or that any counterparty will perform
  • Give legal, tax, investment or technical advice; templates are starting points for your lawyer
  • Broker sanctioned-origin product, Russian-origin fuel oil, or non-existent specifications like “JP54”
  • Work as one more link in a broker chain: offers from long chains are usually not forwarded

How we're paid

Fees, in plain English

Free

The website, Market Snapshot, Price Check and Document Kit. Scam Check is free to use; see the one condition on the right.

Brokerage fee

Only when a deal between parties we introduced completes, per the published schedule: a per-unit fee that falls with every completed transaction, down to a permanent 0.025% of FOB value from the 21st. Who pays is written into the IMFPA before any introduction.

Scam Check condition

If you close a deal on an offer you checked with Scam Check and earn a commission on it, 2% of that commission is due to info2fuel. No deal, nothing owed. Terms (draft, pending legal review).

The info2fuel app costs $0.99 once in the App Store / Google Play (the stores keep part of that). It contains no purchases and doesn't change any fee above.

Check the offer first. Then deal with someone accountable.
