Customer background
DRiiV is a relatively new name in Norway’s EV charging landscape, but the team behind it brings a wealth of experience in electrification and infrastructure. Launched just over a year ago, Driiv set out with a clear mission: to drive Norway’s transition to electric transport through scalable, full-service charging solutions.
DRiiV provides an end-to-end charging solution – managing everything from infrastructure groundwork and charger installation to ongoing support and maintenance. Serving both cars and heavy duty, their customer base spans taxi operators, logistics companies, and public-sector clients – each with unique needs and a shared requirement for reliable, scalable, and intelligent charging infrastructure.
The challenge
As DRiiV began expanding its reach, they encountered several challenges that made finding the right backend software critical. First, their clients had a broad range of operational needs. Taxi companies required reliable reservation systems and usage reporting, while logistics and fleet operators needed load balancing, invoicing tools, and integrations for environmental reporting. At the same time, DRiiV needed to manage a growing network of charging sites across Norway – requiring a unified platform to provide real-time visibility, system control, and operational insights.
Scalability was another pressing concern. DRiiV wanted a solution that could not only meet current needs but support ambitious future projects, including semi-public depot charging, battery-integrated systems, and even electrified aviation. Uptime and customer experience were also non-negotiable. Their clients depended on chargers to run their daily operations, so maintenance, issue resolution, and support needed to be fast, proactive, and accurate.
To deliver on these expectations and grow their offering, DRiiV needed a backend solution that was as versatile, scalable, and service-focused as they were.
Why DRiiV chose Monta
A key factor in this decision was the strength and flexibility of Monta’s technology. The platform’s broad hardware compatibility and enterprise-level features offered the configurability DRiiV needed – from reservation tools (Smart Booking) and team pricing structures in Monta Wallet to automatic billing via subscriptions. This allowed DRiiV to serve a wide variety of customer use cases while keeping operations streamlined under one unified system.
Equally important was Monta’s partnership approach. From the first conversations, DRiiV found Monta’s team to be commercially and technically aligned with their goals. Monta’s pricing structure fit naturally with DRiiV’s business model, and the support from the Nordic team was proactive and personal. There was a clear sense of shared ambition – not just to deploy chargers, but to build long-term value through innovation and service.
That sense of alignment extended to company values. Both DRiiV and Monta are committed to building strong, trust-based customer relationships and growing sustainably rather than at any cost. This made the partnership not only operationally sound, but culturally strong as well.
“Our collaboration with Monta has been a key part of our growth journey. Their team understands our goals, and their platform gives us the flexibility to scale our business while continuing to deliver high-quality, customer-focused solutions. It’s a partnership that supports both our day-to-day operations and our long-term ambitions.”

The results
With Monta as their backend platform, Driiv is now delivering advanced, customer-centric charging solutions across Norway. For taxi and transport clients, they use Monta to manage reservations, reporting, and load balancing – ensuring high uptime and operational efficiency. For semi-public and fleet environments, Monta’s team structure functionality allows Driiv to create tailored pricing models and access controls, helping customers manage their costs while generating stable income.
Driiv also supports large-scale projects with special infrastructure needs. One standout example is their work with one heavy transport operator that uses both AC and DC chargers managed via Monta. Their charging setup supports everything from overnight depot charging to battery-buffered, semi-public charging for trucks and wheel loaders – complete with unique pricing for select users.
Another example is DRiiV’s work with a taxi company. DRiiV’s collaboration with a taxi company. Drivers use their personal RFID tags to charge at a fixed rate, centrally managed by the company. To minimise downtime, they can also reserve charge points in advance. When the infrastructure isn’t needed by taxi drivers, the company opens it to the public—boosting utilisation and driving strong profitability. With Monta, the taxi company has full control over access: toggling between private and public availability as needed.
The flexibility and reliability of the platform, combined with DRiiV’s installation and local support capabilities, have created a model that scales – from single-site setups to nationwide networks. It’s a true example of software and service working hand-in-hand.
Conclusion
Partnering with Monta has given DRiiV the flexibility and reliability needed to grow their business with confidence. Monta’s platform supports a wide range of customer needs, helping Driiv deliver consistent, high-quality solutions across Norway.
The collaboration has proven valuable not just in day-to-day operations, but also in enabling new opportunities – from advanced fleet setups to innovative public projects. Together, DRiiV and Monta are building a strong foundation for the future of EV charging.
