Why does the amount on my bill differ?
“The rate you see at an Opcharge charging station is what we charge for the power and the spot. Do you charge with a charge card?”
Questions & answers
Why do I see a reservation fee when paying by credit card?
“When you start a loading session, your bank temporarily reserves an amount to check whether there is sufficient balance available. Afterwards, this is automatically adjusted to the correct amount. Do you notice that the reserved amount is not released in time? If so, please contact your bank for further handling.”
Why a connection fee?
“At Opcharge, we believe in social charging stations. By charging a small fee per hour, together we ensure that charging stations do not remain unnecessarily occupied after a car is fully charged. This way there is always a free spot for the next driver. Very social, very carefree.”
Why can the charging rate be higher than it says on your website?
“Some charge card or charge app providers charge an additional surcharge on top of our rate. As a result, the final amount may be higher than the base rate we communicate.”
What is the current charging rate?
“Our current rate can be found on the rates page. In addition, check with your charge card provider, as they may charge additional fees.”
Does a business charging station also generate additional revenue?
“If you let visitors or third parties charge at your charging station, you can benefit from the charging revenue. A wise choice for sustainable mobility and electric transport that pays for itself. Moreover, the presence of charging infrastructure increases the value of your location.”
Is a charging solution also suitable for my office?
“Sure. A charging station at your office allows you to charge your electric car during working hours. In addition, you can offer visitors extra service with a charging station. Electric driving thus becomes the logical choice for commuting, even for your electric car fleet.”
Can I combine charging with solar panels?
“Generated energy from your solar panels can be used directly for charging on your property. This way you contribute to sustainable mobility and reduce the cost per charging session.”
Is a business charging station deductible?
“Yes, a business charging station is deductible through tax schemes such as the environmental investment allowance (MIA/Vamil). With the Opcharge model, you do not invest yourself, but we use these schemes to keep costs low. The SPRILA subsidy is also available for self-investment.”
How quickly can the installation be arranged?
“Depending on grid capacity and location, your charging solution will usually be ready for use within a few weeks.”
