Tap’s free for retail and hospitality businesses – we charge a small fee to drivers when they use your chargers.
How can I save on my retail and hospitality EV charging costs?
By choosing Tap, you can reduce your EV charging operating costs since our EV charger management platform is free to use. Unlike other EV software, we don’t charge you a monthly fee to keep your chargers online. Tap adds a service fee to the driver only when they use your charger. This service fee starts at 10% for pay-as-you-go drivers, and can be reduced to as low as 0% depending on which subscription they choose. So, you get paid the full tariff that you set, and your customers pay the rate we show them in the app before the session starts.
Can I manage EV chargers across multiple retail and hospitality locations?
Yes! With a single Tap Electric account you have:
- Centralised charger control: Set access and tariffs for any of your retail or hospitality sites
- Simplified billing: We automate billing and payments – you get one invoice per month
- Remote management: Get real-time charger logs for any of your Tap connected chargers and easily reboot online chargers
- Detailed reporting: See how your chargers are being used – when drivers are charging, energy consumption and cost
What tariff should I set for my EV chargers?
Tap makes it easy to set competitive and profitable charging tariffs. Our “Analyse this area” feature on the map (in the mobile app) shows you the average cost to charge at nearby stations, helping you stay in line with market rates. Don’t forget to factor in your energy costs, charger maintenance, and desired profit margin to maximise your earnings!
