Roaming is when a driver starts a charging session at your charger using a different charging app, not the Monta app. When you enable roaming on a public charger, it becomes visible and accessible on other charging networks and apps. The driver initiates the session from their preferred app, Monta handles the full backend, session management, billing, and settlement, and you receive your revenue instantly to your Monta wallet. ### What are the fees for roaming? There are two types of roaming fees, depending on the direction of the charge: - Inbound roaming (external drivers charging at your charge points via another network) - Outbound roaming (your drivers charging at other networks’ charge points) ### What's the difference between managed roaming and self-managed roaming? Managed roaming (default): Monta handles everything, all OCPI integrations, contracts with roaming networks, monthly financial settlement with EMSPs, and working capital. You simply toggle on roaming and set a price. Monta handles the rest on your behalf. Self-managed roaming: You manage your own bilateral agreements directly with specific EMSPs and CPOs via OCPI. Monta maintains the technical integrations and the commercial relationship is managed by the CPO. ### What's the difference between inbound and outbound roaming? Inbound roaming: External drivers charge at your charge points. You receive revenue. Monta settles with the EMSP on your behalf. Outbound roaming: Your drivers charge at other networks’ charge points using their Monta-linked account. Monta handles the OCPI connection and settlement with the external CPO. ### How do I enable roaming on my charge points? It’s a simple setup in Monta Hub: 1. Go to your charger settings 2. Toggle Roaming on 3. Set a roaming price ### Which roaming networks and partners does Monta support? Monta is connected to a wide range of roaming hubs and networks, including Hubject and other major European and US platforms. You can view all active roaming partners directly in Monta Hub. Monta manages all OCPI integrations and contracts. ### Who handles settlement with roaming networks, do I have to manage that? When it comes to managed roaming, Monta handles everything. When a driver charges at your station via a roaming network, Monta collects payment from the eMSP and settles with all roaming partners at the end of each month. ### What price should I set for roaming? Your roaming price is what external drivers pay when they charge at your charger via another network. In Monta, your roaming price is different from your public price. You can choose to set the same price or a higher price.
