Tax Refund Subscriptions are services provided by Charge Point Operators in Denmark. 

If you decide to set up tax refund subscription you will become a 3rd party service provider. As a service provider, your company becomes responsible for the charge point and it will be managing the charge point maintenance, troubleshooting, approving charge point meter readings, issuing tax refund and reporting to SKAT.

In this guide you will learn how to create a tax refund subscription plan via Monta Hub. 

Tax refund subscription plans can only be created by Operator users with Admin or Manager user rights.

Select the type of plan

Navigate to the side menu and select Subscriptions. Then click on + Create a plan or Add new.

When you are creating a tax refund plan, you need to select Charge point plan.

If you select On-site repair you have to send an installer to repair a charge point when this is required.

If you select Charge point replacement you have to replace a charge point that is broken or malfunctioning in some way.
As a service provider, you take responsibility for the charge points under your subscription plan.

Therefore, you must provide hardware maintenance to the charge points you support.

Refund per kWhAmount of DKK you are going to refund the user for each kWh charged.As a tax refund provider it is your responsibility to follow the SKAT regulations and make a decision on how much you want to refund your customers.
Refund is incl. VATIf you tick this off, VAT will be shown in the calculation, the receipt and it will reflect in your invoice.

If you leave it blank, this will not change the tax refund calculation, but VAT will not be shown in the receipt or in your invoice.
As a tax refund provider it is your responsibility to follow the Danish government's regulation of paying tax refund inclusive of exclusive of VAT.

Please note that whatever you select does not change the calculation in the Monta system. Tax refund is always calculated as:

kWh charged X Payout per kWh = Tax refund payed out
Instant payout per charge sessionYou can select to instantly transfer the tax refund after the charge is completed. This will take the funds from your Operator Wallet and transfer them to the Wallet of the charge point owner.

You can also schedule a quarterly task to transfer the tax refund with a single transaction to the Wallet of the charge point owner.
We recommend to base this decision on the contract with your customer.

If you state that you provide instant tax refund, then you should select the instant option.

If for any reason, the customer needs to receive the tax refund quarterly, then you should schedule a task.
Charge point state when subscribingIf you only allow connected charge points to subscribe, and your plan is on the Marketplace, users cannot see your plan until they have connected their charge point to Monta.

Allowing Passive charge points to subscribe means that the charge point has not been connected to Monta yet.
Allowing only connected charge points to subscribe can make it easier for you, as the charge point is most probably already operational and you just need to approve the subscription.

We recommend allow Passive charge points, if you are only going to be applying the subscription to charge points under your Operator.

This way you can apply the subscription before you even connect it to Monta.
