Invoice details for charge point owners

As the owner of the charging station and subscription holder, you will receive a monthly invoice (including VAT). This invoice consists of the fees that E-Flux by Road charges for the subscription per charging point, and possibly additional costs for the use of Business or Enterprise. In addition, there may be charges for ad hoc sessions (QR code or payment terminal).

How to access your monthly invoice

To ensure proper permissions, make sure your account is linked to the respective business account. If an invoice isn't visible, check your account settings or consult an administrator.

You can view and manage your monthly usage invoice directly within the E-Flux platform: If certain invoices are missing, verify account settings to confirm access or reach out to support.

Additionally, the platform provides tools for reconciling payments with invoices or credit notes. Users can match collected or paid amounts with corresponding invoices using detailed specifications available for download.

  1. Log in to your E-Flux account.

  2. Navigate to my invoices to access an overview of your invoices.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Can invoices be split between users within one account?

No. Invoices cannot be split between users, even if linked charging cards or sessions belong to the same account. This is especially relevant when billing employers.

Is a customized setup available for managing multiple locations?

Yes. If you require one platform to manage multiple locations while receiving separate invoices, consult E-Flux support for an appropriate subscription setup.

Reimbursement invoice

The reimbursement invoice is based on the electricity costs that E-Flux by Road pays out to the charging station owner each month. This amount is the total number of kilowatt-hours charged during that month, multiplied by the set kilowatt-hour rate.

You can find this invoice as follows:

The reimbursement invoice is available on the 1st day of each month. Read more here about how the reimbursement invoice is paid out.
