EV billing is basically the way EV charging providers earn revenue and monetize EV charging. EV charging providers can define various pricing plans for EV charging, including flexible pricing based on factors such as time of day, KWh, per minute (or as a combination of both), and charging speed. Once the EV charging session ends, EV owners are charged for their charging session via credit cards, debit cards, prepaid, or postpaid.

The EV billing module of EV charging management software addresses every aspect of your billing operations. The solution should support different business models, enable various pricing plans, and handle multiple payment schemes such as prepaid and pay-per-use and payment gateways. It should also support settlement between multiple parties, including business partners and EV roaming providers. Multinational charge point operators will need support for multiple currencies along with flexible tax management.

Optimized EV billing requires flexibility which will allow EV charging providers to offer multiple pricing plans, offer incentives such as coupons for free or discounted charging, to support eRoaming and deliver error-free data and invoicing. Comprehensive system flexibility is key to increasing monetization, maximizing customer satisfaction and improving ROI.
