Search charging stations based on location or PIN code and access directions to the selected charging point. Vehicle and connector information can also be used to help users identify chargers suitable for their EV. This helps drivers find charging points that match their vehicle requirements.
Drivers can reserve charging slots before arriving at a station. The source platform supports selecting a date up to five days in advance and choosing a 30-minute slot. These parameters can be made configurable when JBMatrix implements the platform for another charging network.
Drivers do not necessarily need an advance booking. They can arrive at a supported charging station, scan the QR code associated with the charger and initiate an instant charging session. Charging can be configured around an amount or energy-unit-based requirement according to the charging operator's business model.
Drivers can monitor the charging session through the application. Relevant information can include energy delivered, running charging cost, charging status and session progress. The charging session can stop automatically after the purchased charging quantity has been delivered, or appropriate manual stop functionality can be provided.
The platform can provide a digital wallet for charging payments. Users can add money online, pay automatically for charging sessions, review wallet transactions, view top-up history and receive low-balance warnings. This creates a cashless payment experience without requiring payment at the physical charger for every session.
Users can save their EV information and associated plug or connector type. The platform can use this information to help identify compatible charging points for the selected vehicle. This allows drivers to manage multiple electric vehicles and their charging requirements from the platform.
Maintain a centralized history of previous EV charging sessions, including relevant information such as charging station, date, energy units delivered, charging cost and session information. Drivers therefore have a single digital record of their charging activity. This provides convenient access to previous charging records whenever required.
Push notifications can inform users about important charging events such as charging started, charging completed, wallet status, charging-station updates and operator notifications. Notifications can also be maintained within an in-app inbox for future reference. This keeps drivers informed about important charging activities and updates.
Users can cancel applicable charging reservations. Where a selected charger becomes unavailable, the platform can provide an appropriate rescheduling workflow to help the user select another charging opportunity. This provides flexibility when charging plans need to be changed.
Charging-station owners can register physical charging units and associate chargers with their account or station. Charger information can include charger identification, serial number, charging plan, operational status, connector type, vehicle compatibility and other configurable charger information. This helps operators maintain structured information about their charging infrastructure.
Operators can obtain a centralized view of chargers associated with their network. This can help teams understand charger status and operational information without maintaining separate records. The dashboard provides a centralized way to manage and monitor charging infrastructure.
Charging operators can analyze performance over selected date ranges. Reports can include number of charging sessions, energy units delivered, charger-wise activity, revenue generated and other operational information. The source system specifically supports filtering by date range and reviewing sessions, units delivered and earnings by charger.
Charging sessions can be initiated and stopped through network-connected application workflows where supported by the charging hardware and integration architecture. This enables the application and backend platform to become part of the charger's operational control environment. It provides operators with a connected workflow for managing supported charging sessions.

The architecture can allow charger and connector configurations to be maintained at the station level.
This means additional compatible connector or vehicle types can be introduced as the charging network evolves, subject to the hardware and integration requirements.
