EV Charging Without a Monthly Fee

Charge your EV without a monthly fee: Options worth considering

Not everyone who drives an EV needs a charging plan with a monthly base fee. People who only occasionally charge in public, drive a lot in the city or get most of their electricity at home often benefit from more flexible plans. That is when charging an EV without a base fee becomes especially attractive. Rather than paying ongoing fixed costs, you pay only when you actually use a charging station. This offers greater day-to-day freedom and helps you keep a closer eye on your charging costs.

Who benefits from flexible charging tariffs?

A tariff without a monthly base fee is especially suitable for drivers who charge irregularly. If you do not need to charge your vehicle on the road every day, a traditional subscription can quickly become unnecessarily expensive. In some cases it therefore makes more sense to charge an electric car without a monthly fee and pay only for individual charging sessions. This is particularly true for people who mainly drive short distances, charge at home or use public charging points only as a supplement. An open plan is often better for those who want to stay flexible.

How charging without a contract works

If you want to charge your electric car without a contract, you now have considerably more freedom than just a few years ago. Many public charging points can be used spontaneously without committing to a long-term tariff. This is especially useful when your route, charging needs or daily plans change at short notice. Rather than a fixed contract, what matters most is easy access and knowing the cost before you start. That is exactly why it pays to look for transparent billing and straightforward payment.

With us, you can pay conveniently according to usage via the JOLT app, by QR code, by credit card at the terminal, or with third-party charging cards and apps. Mobile payments may also be possible depending on the payment method. Charging thus remains simple, transparent and practical for everyday life, without necessarily requiring a fixed contract.

Charge your EV without a subscription: Our tariffs at a glance

If you want to charge with JOLT without a subscription, two of our charging tariffs are available. The Community tariff is ideal if you want to use our app and value a lower price without a monthly base fee. At JOLT charging stations, you pay €0.59/kWh from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. and €0.55/kWh from 8 p.m. to 8 a.m. There is no fixed contract or minimum term. The Express tariff is primarily designed for especially spontaneous charging. With it, you charge directly at the station without registering and pay €0.79/kWh by credit card or smartphone using Apple Pay or Google Pay. We thus offer two flexible options for anyone who wants to charge without fixed monthly costs and choose between the app and direct payment according to the situation.
