What is the Fixed per Period rate?
This rate type allows billing based on how long a vehicle is actively charging, regardless of how much energy is used. It’s ideal for:
Locations that double as time-limited parking spots
Enforcement of charger occupancy in shared environments
Key benefits
Simple pricing for time-sensitive setups: Set fixed fees per 15, 30, or 60 minutes.
Compatible with idle fees: Applies only during active charging.
Integrated into billing tools: “Charging cost” now appears in driver and account statements. Receipts include duration-based line items.
How to configure a Fixed per Period rate
Go to Operator Settings → Rate Plans → Add Rate Plan.
Choose Fixed per period under Rate type.
Select an interval: 15, 30, or 60 minutes.
Set the cost per interval (e.g., $5/hr).
(Optional) Add a Parking refund per interval to offset the cost.
Notes
The old Fixed rate is now called Fixed per kWh.
The Charging time refund field has been renamed Parking refund per interval, available only for Fixed per period rates.
Billing output reflects “Charging cost” instead of “Energy cost”.
FAQ
Can I combine Fixed per period with energy-based pricing?
No. This rate type is used independently but can be combined with idle fees.
Where will the new rate appear for users?
In the pricing card in-app, and in all billing documents and receipts.
