Home / Home charging reimbursement
Home charging paid back, without expense claims
Drivers mark which home sessions were for work. We credit the exact cost of that energy to their home energy account every month, and you pay for business sessions only.

Why fleets use it
-
The exact cost, not an estimate
Drivers are reimbursed for the exact cost of charging their work EV, so nobody is out of pocket and nobody is overpaid.
-
Works with any energy supplier
Your drivers don't need to be with Octopus Energy. If they have a compatible smart charger, the reimbursement is handled. A compatibility checker needs the driver's car, charger and energy supplier.
-
No expense claims
Drivers tell us which sessions were for work in their portal. No receipts, no spreadsheets, no manual claims.
-
One bill for the fleet
All the home charging data is wrapped into the same consolidated monthly invoice as the rest of your fleet.
