How do I create a Flat fee plan?

A Flat fee plan is a type of custom monthly subscription available to charge point operators (CPOs). Once applied to an account, the plan charges the account wallet a flat monthly fee, which is transferred to the operator wallet.

Select the plan type

1. Go to Pricing & Growth > Plans & subscriptions in the side menu.
2. Click + New plan.
3. Select Flat fee plan.

Add service details

1. Enter a name for the plan.
2. State the monthly price, including VAT (value-added tax).
3. Write a summary of the services you are offering.
4. Review the plan and click Next.

Create a charging discount (optional)

The Charge Subscription discount is available for Flat fee plans only. It gives account members a discount for charging on your charge points.

1. Toggle on Apply discount on charging.

2. Use the checkbox to specify whether the discount applies only when the driver pays with the account wallet. If disabled, the discount applies regardless of payment method.

3. Click + Add charge discount.

4. Give the discount a name.

5. Set a discount value as a percentage of the charge price.

6. Select whether to limit the charge points the discount applies to:

   • Any charge point — applies to all charge points under your operator profile.
   • Selected charge points — applies to specific charge points (selected per account).

7. Click Create Discount. Once created, the discount can be reused in other Flat fee plans.

Apply a charging discount to the plan

1. Toggle on Apply discount on charging.

2. Click Add charge discount and select an existing discount.

3. Click Apply.

4. Select whether to apply the discount only when the account wallet is used:

   • Yes — discount applies only when the user pays with the account wallet where this subscription is applied.
   • No — discount applies for all payment methods (personal wallet, bank card, MobilePay, Vipps, account wallet, and others).

Plan details and settings

1. Write a detailed description of the services you offer.
2. State the exact terms of the subscription plan.
3. Include a contract URL and a support email (strongly recommended).
