• Why do prices vary across different charging stations in the Fortum Charge & Drive network?

  At Fortum Charge & Drive, our collaboration with a variety of charge point operators (CPOs) enables us to provide an extensive and user-friendly charging network for our customers. As a result, the pricing for using our services varies across different charging points and operators.
  
  Each charge point operator set their own prices, which directly influences the final price you see in the Fortum Charge & Drive app. Occasionally, you might notice a significant price difference between our app and the charge point operator's native service or drop-in charging option. This discrepancy is usually due to the pricing strategy of the charge point operator.
  
  We are constantly working with our partners to improve pricing for our customers and to ensure that our pricing remains competitive and consistent across the network.
  
  You can always check the current price of the charging station in our app. Simply tap on the charger you wish to use, and the price will be displayed in the information section.

• Can I use charging keys (RFIDs) from other providers?

  While certain third-party RFID tags might work with our charging stations, we cannot ensure consistent functionality across all points in our network. For a seamless and reliable charging experience, we strongly recommend using Fortum Charge & Drive’s own RFID tags, which are designed to be fully compatible with our services and network.

  Absolutely! To start charging, simply open the app and select a charging station from the map. Once you've chosen the right station, pick the appropriate outlet to initiate the charging process. It’s that easy!
