At the end of your charging session, you will pay the charging fees minus the parking fees.
Example: for a 25 minute-charging session on a BOOST+ charging point as a Resident subscriber in a private parking:
BOOST+ Rate: 0.35€ per minute
Parking Rates: 6€ per hour, 0.10€/minute
Charging costs: 25*0.35€= 8.75€
Parking cost for the duration of the charging session: 25*0.10€= 2.50€
The total amount you will pay is: 8.75€-2.50€= 6.25€
Example: for a 25 minute-charging session on a BOOST+ charging point as a Resident subscriber in a private parking:
BOOST+ Rate: 0.35€ per minute
Parking Rates: 6€ per hour, 0.10€/minute
Charging costs: 25*0.35€= 8.75€
Parking cost for the duration of the charging session: 25*0.10€= 2.50€
The total amount you will pay is: 8.75€-2.50€= 6.25€
When I use a BOOST+ charging point, should I pay the parking fees?
Yes, if you charge on a BOOST+ charging point in a private parking, you must pay for the parking fees at the exit.
