For STR Hosts

The Short Term Rental Kit.

Everything your

  • Guest-only or public access modes
  • Private access codes for STR guests
  • Peak and off-peak pricing controls
  • Earn from charging even when vacant
  • Keep 85% of every session — EVchargeME takes just 15%
  • Tesla, NACS & J1772 compatible
