To make charging your vehicle as convenient as possible, we provide you with two different ways of paying:
At the end of each charging session or instant reservation, the transaction amount will automatically be debited from your credit card.
Please note that, if your emotì account is in credit, it will be used to collect the transaction amount. If this credit is not sufficient, the remainder will be charged to your credit card.
You can top up your emotì account at any time using the following payment methods:
Please note that, if you pay by bank transfer, it may take several days to complete the transfer.
At the end of each charging session or instant reservation, the transaction amount will automatically be debited from your emotì account.
The charging station map shows you all the charging points that you can access.
You can display the stations that are compatible with your vehicle by using the filters just above the map.
Charging time depends on several factors, including the vehicle's battery capacity and the power of the charging station.
(Battery capacity) / (Charging station power)
For example, Renault Zoe:
Battery capacity | 22 kWh |
Charging station power | 11 kW |
Calculation | 22 / 11 = 2 hours |
This is only an approximation, because when the battery reaches a charge of 80%, the power is automatically reduced for the remaining portion of the charge. A complete recharge of the above-mentioned vehicle will take more than 2 hours.
Charging electric vehicles in roaming mode means that user can charge their vehicles at a charging station outside of their home network (located in the same country or abroad).
Using your emotì account, (depending on the kind of subscription you choose) roaming enables you to access all the public charging stations in Switzerland and more than 66,000 charging stations throughout Europe. This number is constantly rising, along with the growth of public charging networks.
Access to roaming is reserved for subscription-paying members. To become a member, click here.
To start charging your vehicle, you just need to swipe your emotì card or badge over the charging station. You can also initiate charging using the emotì mobile app.
The SwissPass cards are compatible with emotì. Technically, they also work on networks with which we have a roaming agreement. However it can happen that the charging stations of networks outside emotì are not compatible with the SwissPass cards. In this case, SwissPass users can use the emotì application to use the charging station.
The cost of charging can vary a lot, depending on the country and the charging network.
emotì operates two pricing plans:
Power | ≤22 kW | ≤80 kW | >80 kW |
---|---|---|---|
On networks inside Switzerland | CHF 0.12 / min | CHF 0.39 / min | CHF 0.90 / min |
On networks outside Switzerland | CHF 0.25 / min | CHF 0.60 / min | CHF 1.20 / min |
These prices are subject to change without prior notice, depending on price changes on other charging networks. We advise you to always check the pricing terms and conditions on our website before charging your vehicle.
You should contact the telephone number for assistance that is usually displayed on the charging station.
