Published prices
See these published rapid rates in the true-cost comparison (arithmetic on the figures above, not advice).
Payment methods
Contactless payment is stated. The tariffs page says you can add a card in the Fastned app for discounts, or activate the charger by tapping the debit/credit card reader for contactless payment. App or account named on the page: Fastned. The page says the app is not required.
Membership or app deals. Gold Member is £0.55 per kWh in the United Kingdom, with a subscription of £4.99 per month until early 2027; cancel anytime after 30 days. The page says Gold Members save 30% on the standard price for up to 3 vehicles per household. The Fastned app gives 10% off the standard price at no extra cost in Great Britain when you use a direct payment method rather than a third-party charge card.
Pre-authorisation. The page says charging with a debit or credit card often requires a temporary hold. The reserved amount is shown on the screen; the exact hold figure is not stated as a single UK amount.
Speed. The tariffs page describes ultra-rapid charging. A kilowatt figure is not stated next to the United Kingdom prices.
Caveat. All prices include taxes, according to the tariffs page. Discounts apply only with a direct payment method in the Fastned app. The page does not print a separate pence figure for the 10% app discount.
The 10% app discount is published as a percentage off the 79p standard price, not as its own p/kWh figure.
Idle and overstay fees
No idle or overstay fee, rate, grace period or cap was stated on the page checked. Source: Fastned prices, discounts and subscriptions (checked 2026-11-10).
Roaming versus paying the operator
Fastned says that if you use a charge card you always pay the provider of the card, and that third-party card providers can add additional fees and charge a higher price.
- Zap-Pay: not published — Zapmap’s public help page (modified 23 March 2026) says the price shown when you pay with Zapmap is, wherever possible, the same or similar to the operator’s standard PAYG rate, but that some networks apply higher prices via third-party services such as Zapmap. The public Zap-Pay page does not list a per-network p/kWh table. In-app prices are not copied here.
- Octopus Electroverse: not published — Electroverse says the latest pricing for every network and charging point is displayed in the Electroverse app, and that rates might differ when charging with operators directly. No public per-network p/kWh table was published.
- OVO Charge: not published — OVO says PAYG rates are set by the charging networks and are shown for each charger on Charge Anywhere. No public per-network p/kWh table was published. Light Boost is described as 10% off the PAYG rate set by the networks; that percentage is not turned into a p/kWh figure here.
- Paua: not published — Paua says network prices are live in the Paua app and web map, and that customers pay each network’s standard PAYG or “pump” price. Its help page says it aims for a cost equivalent to or less than the network PAYG price where possible, but that some networks charge a premium and drivers should check the app. No public per-network p/kWh table was published.
