Pricing for drivers and hosts
For drivers
You pay the host's per-kWh price — nothing on top by default.
- Each host sets their own price, and you see it — with the estimated total — before you hold, reserve, or start charging.
- Where a Slotwatt fee applies — for example in a specific market or situation — it is itemised before you pay, never after.
- You are charged for the energy actually delivered, and any unused payment authorisation is released promptly after the session.
For hosts
You set your price per kWh and keep 85% of charging revenue under default terms.
- Slotwatt's 15% commission covers the platform: the marketplace, secured payments, charger connectivity, payouts, and statements.
- Commercial terms can vary by market and agreement — every settled session shows the exact split that was applied, traceable line by line.
- No listing fee, no charge to connect a charger. Slotwatt earns when you earn.
A worked example
One session, followed from the host’s price to the settled split — exactly the arithmetic every receipt shows.
Figures exclude any applicable taxes.

The rules behind the numbers.
Secured before charging
Payment is secured before any session starts — and captured only after it ends, for the energy actually delivered.
Every fee itemised
Prices are per kWh and shown before you commit. Any fee that applies is its own line on the receipt, never folded in.
