The first step to getting your charge points online is to add the to your account in the Monta Portal. Adding a charge point creates a placeholder in the Monta system, which tell us to which Team the charge point is associated, and where the revenue from charging is going to end up.
Please note that adding a charge point in the Monta Portal does not mean that you have connected the charge point. This is a separate action that may require some configuration on the charge point.
Before adding a charge point on the Monta Portal, you will need to create a Team. Here you can find information about how to create a Team on Monta Portal, and where to add your charge point.
Navigate to the "Charge points" section on the left side menu and click on "Add charge point".
You need to select the Team, where the charge point should be added.
Here, you need to select the brand and model of the charge point.
Then input the "Max charging power" (this information can be found on the charge point box or should have been provided by the manufacturer).
Put in a location and create a charge point site. If a charge point site has already been created you can use the existing site.
To move on you click "Next".
Name your charge point.
If you select "Private", the charge point will not be visible on the map for users that are not part of the charge point team. "Public" charge points are visible for all Monta users.
Here you can select whether or not to set the charge point as active. If you select "Yes", you will be able to use all functionalities of the charge point.
If you would like to hide the charge point from the map, select "No". If you select "Yes" the charge point will be visible on the Monta map.
