Backend Integration Guide
Kostad stations can be integrated into the eCarUp billing system in just a few steps and free of charge. Once installed in your account, you can easily define the terms of use of your stations yourself (prices, users, available times, etc.). You decide who can charge, when and at what price. In our article OCPP stations we explain in detail how to work with OCPP stations in the eCarUp backend.

The upload interval of the Meter Values may vary from station to station.
We recommend an interval between 30-60s. This is the only way we can better calculate and display the current charging power on the app.
You can change this as follows:
