Charger operations

Every OCPP 1.6J charger in one dashboard

Connect chargers from any vendor that speaks OCPP 1.6J and run them from one place.

  • Onboard a charger by pointing it at your CandelaCore OCPP address. It appears in your dashboard when it connects.
  • Live status for every station and connector, pushed to the dashboard as it changes.
  • Remote commands: start and stop sessions, reset, unlock connectors, change availability and configuration.
  • A live OCPP message log on each station, so you can see exactly what a charger is sending while you troubleshoot.

Billing and payments

Get paid for every kilowatt-hour

Drivers and fleets pay from prepaid wallets, and every session is billed at the price they were shown.

  • Prepaid naira wallets for drivers and fleets, topped up through your own Paystack or OPay account.
  • Time-of-use tariffs set per location, station or charge point. The most specific tariff wins.
  • Hold-based billing: each session reserves funds when it starts and settles the exact amount when it ends.
  • The price is locked at plug-in, so what the driver sees is what they pay.
  • Downloadable PDF receipts for every completed session.

Partners and revenue share

Share revenue without the spreadsheets

Bring site hosts, charger partners and investors onto the platform and pay them fairly.

  • Set up location partners, charger partners and investors, each with their own revenue share.
  • Revenue shares are calculated on profit, after electricity cost, not on gross revenue.
  • Each partner gets a scoped login that shows only the data that belongs to them.

Fleets

Sell charging to fleet businesses

Invite fleet operators to their own portal and bill their charging to one shared wallet.

  • Fleet accounts by invitation, each with its own portal, team logins and branding.
  • A shared fleet wallet that pays for every session on the fleet's cards.
  • Vehicles and RFID cards managed by the fleet, with card requests that you fulfil.
  • Fleet charging history and spend in the fleet portal and in your own dashboard.

White-label driver experience

Your brand in front of every driver

Drivers charge through a portal and app that carry your logo and colours, not ours.

  • A branded customer web portal for finding chargers, topping up and charging.
  • A driver mobile app for Android and iOS with the same wallet and live charging.
  • Scan the QR code on a charger to start a session.
  • Live session tracking: energy, time and cost update on screen while the car charges.
