ABSTRACT

This project report describes a mobile android based application which aids users in paying for the services rendered at fuelling stations. This application consists of features that makes the payment process quick, easy and seamless. The application comes with features like google maps to help users find nearby fuel stations. This dissertation also consists of the activity diagrams, application architecture, uses cases and entity relationship diagrams. The technologies used in the execution of the objectives of this research are android studio as the IDE of choice and Firebase for the database. Upon convincing assessment and system verification, the writer sees that the application can be used modestly and efficiently
