Learn how Bensic ensures fair compensation for all battery swaps. We track the charge level you return and credit your account accordingly. When you accumulate enough energy equity credits, redeem them for a free swap.
At Bensic, every battery swap costs $2. But we understand that not every customer arrives at the swap station with a completely depleted battery. To be fair to everyone involved, we track how much energy remains in the battery you return and compensate you with loyalty credits based on that charge level.
When you swap your battery at any Bensic station, our system automatically measures the remaining charge in your depleted battery. Since you're returning energy back to our system, you receive credit for that contribution.
Once you accumulate 125% in loyalty credits, you can redeem them for one completely free battery swap! This ensures fair compensation for the energy equity you've contributed to the system over time.
Maria uses her electric scooter for daily deliveries and swaps batteries regularly. Here's how the energy equity system worked for her:
Traditional battery swap models charge the same price regardless of what you return. At Bensic, we recognize that when you return a battery with remaining charge, you're contributing valuable energy back to our network. Our loyalty credit system ensures you receive fair compensation for that contribution.
In real-world usage, customers typically don't wait until their battery is at 0%. You might swap when you have 30% left because you need a full charge for your next trip, or 15% because you want to avoid range anxiety. Whatever charge level you return, our system automatically tracks it and credits your account fairly.
