Question 1

What problem does CampaVolt solve for campsites?

Accepted Answer

CampaVolt helps campsites move away from flat-rate electric hook-up charges by giving guests pay-as-you-go electricity metering. Site owners can monitor usage, automate top-ups, reduce billing disputes, and manage pitch electricity from the CampaPortal dashboard.

Question 2

How do pay-as-you-go electricity meters work for campsites?

Accepted Answer

A CampaVolt meter is fitted to the electric hook-up and records electricity use in real time. Guests add credit when needed, while the campsite can view balances, usage, payments, and alerts through the online portal.

Question 3

How do guests top up electricity credit?

Accepted Answer

Guests can top up by scanning the QR code on the meter label or entering the meter serial number on the CampaVolt website. Campsites can also add credit for guests from the portal when a guest prefers to pay in person.

Question 4

How does CampaPortal help campsite operators?

Accepted Answer

CampaPortal is the free cloud dashboard for CampaTech products. It helps operators manage meters, gate access, bookings, alerts, payments, usage records, and product settings without a monthly platform charge.

Question 5

How much should campsites charge for electric hook-up pitches?

Accepted Answer

Many campsites struggle to set a fair flat rate because electricity use varies by guest, season and pitch type. A pay-as-you-go electricity system lets guests pay for the energy they use and gives operators clearer billing records.
