Understanding the £1 Pre-Authorisation
When you begin a charging session, GRIDSERVE's payment system will reserve a small pre-authorisation amount of £1 from your account. This is a temporary hold to verify your payment method. Once your EV charging session is complete, this £1 pre-authorisation is automatically released back to your account, and you will only be charged for the actual energy consumed during your session.
