The Simple payment plan includes values that are fixed in every situation, meaning that regardless of the time of the day, the amount of their consumption, and the days of the calendar, the users will be charged by either of the values you add to your payment plan.
The applicable values for the Simple payment plan:
Activation Fee (per session): The fixed rate that the user needs to pay every time they start a session
Duration Rate (per hour): The rate that the user needs to pay per hour based on how long their session lasts (i.g. if the rate for this value is $0.50/h and the session lasted 4 hrs, the user will be charged $2)
Consumption Rate (per kWh): The rate that the user needs to pay per kWh based on how much electricity they used during each session
Important Note: If you set all the above three values to $0, you will create a free plan meaning that the users will not be charged for their sessions.
