What are Scheduled Idle Fees?
Idle fees are charges for leaving your car connected after charging ends. Some operators set these fees to apply only during certain hours.
If a schedule is set, idle fees apply only during those hours. Idle time outside those hours is free from idle fees.
How to View Idle Fee Schedules
The schedule is shown only if the charger’s rate includes Scheduled Idle Fees.
Scan the charger’s QR code to begin your session.
In the rate details, look for the info icon next to the idle fee.
Tap the icon to see the specific hours when idle fees apply.
If the info icon is not present, the charger does not have scheduled idle fees — they either apply 24/7 or not at all.
