How Billing Works

Scan & Rent

Scan the QR code at any Power Up Mate station and follow the instructions to rent a power bank.

Deposit Hold

A $35 pending charge is placed on your card. This is not an actual charge but a temporary hold.

Return & Pay

Return the power bank to any station. The actual usage cost is calculated based on your rental time.

Final Charge

The rental cost is deducted from the deposit hold, and the remaining amount is refunded to your card.

Rental Terms

Maximum Rental Period

The maximum rental period is 48 hours. We recommend returning your power bank as soon as you're done to make it available for other users.

Late Returns

If the power bank is not returned within 48 hours, the full $35 deposit will be charged, and the power bank becomes yours to keep.

Return Locations

You can return your power bank to any Power Up Mate station, not just the one you rented from. This makes it convenient to charge on the go.

Damage Protection

Normal wear and tear is expected and covered. However, significant damage may result in additional charges up to the full deposit amount.
