Lower your electricity bill and drive your EV smarter. Nordplug tracks live Nord Pool spot prices for Finland, rides shotgun on your road trips, and soon rewards you at partner venues with Nordplug Club. PRICES THAT MATCH YOUR CONTRACT Live spot prices in 15-minute resolution, today and tomorrow, with your own margin, transfer fee and VAT applied, so the number you see is the number you pay. Tomorrow's prices arrive around 14:00 with a daily summary notification. Analytics put today in context against price history and show the best hours of the day at a glance. RUN YOUR HOME ON THE CHEAPEST HOURS Add your appliances once and get a daily schedule that moves the dishwasher, laundry and EV home charging to the cheapest windows. Charge tonight picks the best overnight slot for your car automatically. EVERY TRIP, BRIEFED Enter a route and get the road ahead: official driving-condition forecasts, weather along the way, FMI warnings, roadworks, and a charging plan built for your car: where to stop, how long to charge, live connector availability and prices. Rank your favorite charging networks and the planner tries them first. HEADS-UPS WHILE YOU DRIVE Tap Start trip and put the phone away. About 3 km before each fast charger on your route you get a notification with free connectors right now and a price hint. Chargers sharing a junction arrive as one notification, your top network first. Works with any navigation app, phone locked, at motorway speed, and shows on your watch. FAST CHARGERS, EVEN OFFLINE No trip running? The same screen shows the nearest 150 kW+ chargers with live availability. The station list is saved on your phone, so it works without coverage. NORDPLUG CLUB (COMING SOON) A free membership for Nordplug users. Join in the More menu, get a member card with a personal QR code, and show it at partner venues: cafes and restaurants, many of them near fast chargers. Offers and your redemption history live in the app. The Club opens once the first partner venues are live. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your location is used in brief wake-ups on your route and never leaves your phone. No tracking, no route history on our servers. Venue staff see only that your Club card is valid, never your account. Built for Finnish households on hourly (pΓΆrssisΓ€hkΓΆ) contracts and for EV drivers on Finnish roads. Prices from Nord Pool, road data from Fintraffic and FMI, charger data from the national charging registry. Free account. Questions? support@nordplug.com
