1. Introduction

What is a Plan?

With Subscription plans, you can offer a wide range of services to your clients, including operational support, maintenance, leasing, charge point repairs, charging perks and more. When you create and apply these services to your customer’s Teams or charge points, your company assumes the role of a third-party service provider, responsible for managing the plan and delivering the agreed-upon services to your clients.

In short:

  • Definition: A plan is a predefined template or product offering. It outlines what services you offer, the pricing structure, terms, billing frequency, and included features.
  • Purpose: A Plan acts as a reusable blueprint that can be applied to many customers.
  • Analogy: Like the Netflix’s product page – plans show the available services, prices and packages that you can get but don’t represent any specific customer contract yet.
    • As you apply this plan to customers, you establish a customer contract and start generating revenue. Once a plan is applied to a Team or charge point, it becomes an active subscription.

Through Monta Hub, you have the flexibility to create multiple types of Subscription plans:

Plan typePricing modelUse caseDescription
Team planFlat feePlatform fees, Charge discount subscriptions, SLAsA plan you apply as a subscription to a customer’s team, which then pays a fixed price each month. The money is transferred from the Team Wallet to the Operator Wallet.
Team planPriced per charge pointCharge point services, Charge-related revenue-sharesA plan you apply as a subscription to a customer’s team, which then pays per integrated and active charge point in the team. You can also set fees to collect a share of the charging revenue (a transaction fee, fee per kwh or fee per charge)
Team planPriced per team memberFleet management services, Driver ManagementA plan you apply as a subscription to a customer’s team, which pays per team member who accepted their team invitation.
Charge point planCharge point planCustom services or fees that are tightly linked to individual charge points e.g. charge point leasing, SIM card support, extra fees/services for DC charge points, distinct Charge-related revenue-shares, [DK] tax refund services etc.A plan you apply as a subscription to an individual charge point – one-by-one. You can also set fees to collect a share of the charging revenue (a transaction fee, fee per kwh or fee per charge)
Sub-account planSub-account planBill sub-accounts more efficiently, avoiding the need to do it team by team.A plan you apply as a subscription to a sub-account. The sub-account’s operator will pay per integrated and active charge point in the sub-account.

Subscription plans can only be created by Operator users with Admin or Manager user rights.

What is a Subscription?

Once a plan is applied to a Team or charge point, it becomes an active subscription. In short:

  • Definition: A subscription represents the contractual relationship between your business and a customer.
  • Purpose: A subscription tracks how a customer consumes the plan, its billing details, and their lifecycle (start, renewals, cancellations, edit options).
  • Analogy: Like your personal Netflix subscription – your subscription shows which plan you’re on, how long you’ve had it, and any specific usage or discounts tied to you.

3.4. Other plans

All other plans follow the same structure and contain the same fields as outlined above in the examples.

3. Next Steps

The Subscription plan outlines the available services, pricing, and packages, but does not yet represent a specific customer agreement. Only when a plan is assigned to a customer, it forms the basis of a contractual agreement and begins generating revenue. Once a plan is applied and approved to a Team or charge point, the plan becomes an active subscription.
