drivE.ON - Hungary

The electric chargers operated by E.ON in Hungary can be used in a simple, fast and convenient way with the help of the drivE.ON Application. The Map Search of the Application shows the chargers operated by both E.ON and other companies, but only E.ON’s chargers can be used for charging. The drivE.ON app can be used to select an available charger and the charging session can be started and stopped as well. In addition, users can monitor charging time, the amount of energy delivered during charging and the fee of charging. Before selecting a charging point, users can view the details of the charger to be selected in the Application as well as its availability status. The navigation function in the App helps users reach the desired charging point easily. Users can also set the period of time for using a given charging point and can request notification when a particular charging point becomes available. The chat feature allows users to send messages to each other. For example, if a user is charging, other users can chat to them and ask them exactly when they will leave the charger. These additional features make it extremely easy for electric car drivers to plan charging and use the charging points, if they allow to send them a message.

Users can choose between instant payment (Simple pay) and monthly billing. Monthly billing is available after 3 successful charges and payments. The advantage is that you do not have to pay for each charge, but a summary invoice is created every month, invoicing and payment are also done online, through E.ON Online Customer Service and is a very customer-friendly, convenient and flexible payment method.

Thanks to the latest development, coupons and vouchers can now be collected and used via the drivE.ON application.
