# watt.ma driver group tariffs

> Create driver groups and apply differentiated tariffs on watt.ma: discounts, alternative tariffs, and free charging based on profiles.

Group tariffs let you apply different prices depending on the driver profile. You can reward residents, employees, or fleet subscribers while maintaining a standard public tariff on the same chargers. watt.ma associates each driver with a group and automatically applies the corresponding pricing rule.

## Use cases

Driver groups address various needs:

* **Public**: occasional drivers paying the full tariff, often via CMI QR code.
* **Employees**: discount for employees of a company with chargers on the parking lot.
* **Residents**: preferential tariff for inhabitants of a residence equipped with shared chargers.
* **Company fleet**: specific tariff, sometimes tracked by a centralized billing account for internal invoicing.
* **VIP**: free or heavily reduced tariff for partners or privileged customers.

## Example group tariff table

Here is a typical pricing policy for a mixed site such as Residence Al Andalous:

| Group         | Price per kWh | Rule type          |
| ------------- | ------------- | ------------------ |
| **Public**    | 3.00 MAD/kWh  | Base tariff        |
| **Employees** | 1.80 MAD/kWh  | 40% discount       |
| **Residents** | 2.00 MAD/kWh  | Alternative tariff |
| **Fleet**     | 1.70 MAD/kWh  | Alternative tariff |
| **VIP**       | 0.00 MAD/kWh  | 100% free          |

## Types of group rules

When you create a group rule, you choose from four modes:

| Rule type               | Description                                                                   |
| ----------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Percentage discount** | Reduction applied on the base tariff. For example, -40% off the public price. |
| **Fixed discount**      | Amount deducted from the total charge. For example, -20.00 MAD per session.   |
| **Alternative tariff**  | A complete tariff replaces the default tariff for this group.                 |
| **100% free**           | The session generates no charge for the driver.                               |

## Create a group and associate drivers

To set up a group tariff, follow these steps:

<Steps>
  <Step title="Create the group">
    Go to **Sessions > Group tariffs** and click **New group**. Name it explicitly: "Atlas Logistics Employees", "Parking A Residents", etc.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Choose the rule type and amount">
    Select the rule type (percentage discount, fixed discount, alternative tariff, or free) and enter the amount or complete tariff.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Associate RFID badges">
    Link the group to one or more [RFID badges](/en/sessions/badges-rfid). When a driver presents their badge, watt.ma identifies them and applies the group tariff. You can also link a badge to a specific billing account.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Link to billing accounts">
    If you have enabled residential or enterprise billing, associate the group with a [billing account](/en/sessions/comptes-facturation) so that charges are grouped on a single periodic invoice.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Example: Atlas Logistics

Atlas Logistics has four drivers who regularly use the site chargers. The configuration is as follows:

* Site public tariff: 2.80 MAD/kWh
* Group "Atlas Fleet": alternative tariff at 1.70 MAD/kWh
* The four drivers each have an RFID badge associated with the group "Atlas Fleet"

Result: when an Atlas Logistics employee presents their badge on charger `CP-003`, watt.ma identifies the group and applies 1.70 MAD/kWh instead of 2.80 MAD/kWh.

## Group statuses

| Status       | Meaning                                                |
| ------------ | ------------------------------------------------------ |
| **Active**   | The group and its rule are applied to new sessions.    |
| **Inactive** | The group exists but no longer applies a pricing rule. |
