COM tariffs: Adjustment of maximum payouts for direct payment charging processes

For be.ENERGISED COMMUNITY tariffs, there is a maximum payout amount for Direct Payment charging processes. This is now displayed in the selection for certain tariffs and this information will follow for other tariffs in the future.

Example: MC_T_1000 EUR / Paying of 8,00 EUR net per hour (Direct Payment: max. refund 51,09 EUR net).

Once again, the maximum payout amount only applies to Direct Payment charging processes!

After a customer has scanned the QR code of your charging station and started a charging process via the Direct Payment Page, the billing of 8,00 EUR net per hour starts, as in the example above. If the end customer has reached the 51,09 EUR net through the standing time (a little more than six hours), the additional time is no longer charged. You, as the charging station operator, can receive a maximum credit of 51,09 EUR net for this charging process.

The reason for this is the so-called authorization amount for direct payment charging processes. Before each charging process, the end customer must pre-authorize an amount that represents the maximum amount to be charged, including country-specific taxes and standard market surcharges. Since this authorization amount represents the limit, there must also be a maximum payment amount to the charging station operators that cannot be exceeded.

When you select the COM rates, you will now see additional information next to it stating the maximum payout for direct payment charging processes.

The information about the maximum payout amount has already been added for those COM tariffs that include a time component (pure time-based tariffs or energy and time-based combined tariffs). Specifically, these are the following tariffs, with the maximum payout varying per tariff.
