Outbound roaming means your drivers can charge on external networks using their Monta account. This article explains how it works when Monta acts as your EMSP.

How outbound roaming works

1. Your driver arrives at a charge point on an external network.
2. They open the Monta app and start a session at the external charge point.
3. Monta sends an authorisation request to the external network (CPO) via OCPI.
4. The CPO starts the session and reports energy and duration back to Monta.
5. Monta charges the driver using their Monta Wallet.

Which networks are available?

Monta has roaming agreements with many networks across Europe. The available networks depend on your operator account settings and your country.

Your drivers can see available roaming charge points on the Monta map.

Pricing for outbound roaming

The external network sets the price for their charge points. Monta adds a platform fee. Drivers see the total price before starting a session.

Enabling outbound roaming for your drivers

Outbound roaming is available by default for Monta drivers with a funded Wallet. You can restrict which networks your drivers can access.

See EMSP access controls for instructions.
