A charge site is a place with one or more charge points: your car park, your driveway, your company grounds. On the charge site you set the subscription, the address, the prices and the visibility; the charge points inherit those settings. You will find your charge sites under Charge sites in the menu.
The overview
| Column | What it contains |
|---|---|
| Name | The name of the charge site. |
| Subscription | The chosen plan. |
| Address | Street and municipality. |
| Public | Public, Semi Public or Private; see below. |
Through the columns menu you can also show the tariffs, the CREG tariff and whether the contract has been signed. You create a new charge site with Create a loading site; that button starts the wizard from Registering a new charge site. Click a row to view the charge site, or Edit to change it.
The form
The form has four tabs:
| Tab | What you set there | Article |
|---|---|---|
| Charge site | Name, subscription, contract and visibility | this article |
| Location | Address, position on the map and opening hours | Location and opening hours |
| Price setting | CREG tariff and your tariffs | Setting your prices |
| Advanced Settings | Technical details of the connection and load balancing | Technical settings and load balancing |
Save your changes with Save changes at the top. Below the form you will find the charge points, clients and charge cards of the charge site; see Linking charge cards and giving a preferential tariff.
Name and subscription
- Name: the name under which the charge site appears in the portal and, for a public charge site, in the apps of drivers. Choose something recognisable, without personal names or street names.
- Subscription type: the plan of the charge site. Which plans you can choose depends on your account: a client chooses from the public plans, an employer sees the plan for employees' home charge points, an owners' association the plan for apartment buildings. The plans are set side by side in Registering a new charge site.
Contract
In the Contract section you see whether the management agreement of the charge site has been signed and when. Not signed yet? The Sign the contract link takes you to the signing page; you can also copy the link and forward it to whoever has to sign. See Signing the management agreement for a charge site.
Visibility: public, semi-public or private
In the Roaming section you choose who may charge at your charge points:
| Choice | What it means |
|---|---|
| Public charge site | The charge site appears on the map in the apps of drivers, and drivers with an external charge card (Shell Recharge, Eneco, Luminus, and so on) can charge. |
| Semi public charge site | External charge cards can charge, but the charge site does not appear on the map. Handy for a car park you do not want to advertise, or to let the partner of an employee charge with the charge card of another employer. |
| Private charge site | Only charge cards you added yourself can charge. No roaming. |
A charge site with the Public subscription is automatically set to public. Wattify passes a public or semi-public charge site on to the roaming partners; how quickly it appears in the app of a particular charge card issuer, and whether it appears at all, is that issuer's own decision. What drivers with an external charge card pay is explained in Setting your prices.
A public charge site needs a QR code on every charge point, so that drivers without a charge card can charge as well. See Charging with the QR code on the charge point.
