Software/Communication Plans: Certain closed/integrated OEMs and/or 3rd-Party electric vehicle supply equipment (EVSE) software providers will handle all software/communication plan implementation and future annual billing. WhichEVer software provider customer chooses or is automatically connected to via their hardware purchase, said software provider will follow up with all necessary software documentation for separate authorization and onboarding. rEVenue sharing may vary in percentage allocation and where applicable, may include rEVenue sharing directly to the installation provider. Please review all terms & conditions provided to you by your software provider. By accepting these terms and conditions you acknowledge and agree to also be bound by your software provider’s individual terms and conditions and are authorizing said software provider to submit the invoices, and commit to the quantity herein upon approval.
Payment Terms: A 50% deposit is required up front with net 30 day payment terms on the balance. If payment is not received within 30 days after completion of installation, any unpaid due amounts will be subject to interest at 3% per month, or, if less, the maximum rate allowed by law, which will be added to your bill. We accept payment by check, electronic check & ACH with no processing fee (**See ACH wire payment instructions inside your estimate). Returned checks will result in an NSF fee of $95.00 to be applied to Customer’s balance to be paid by digital invoice. Failure to pay at the completion of work can result in mechanic liens placed on the property and/or prosecution to the full extent of the law. Credit cards are also welcome with a processing fee. Prices shown on the service estimate are in US dollars, include packaging for domestic shipment, and are exclusive of any other amounts including without limitation fees for export, special packaging, transportation and insurance. DROP-SHIPS: Payment is due in full at time of purchase in order to place charging equipment order. TURN-KEY & MAKE-READY: SCA MUST RECEIVE THE DEPOSIT WITHIN 30 DAYS OF SIGNED APPROVAL. PROJECT MUST COMMENCE WITHIN 60 DAYS OF SIGNED APPROVAL OR ESTIMATE PRICE WILL NO LONGER BE VALID, AS A CHANGE ORDER WILL NEED TO BE ISSUED IN ORDER TO BEGIN PROJECT. TIE-INS: SCA MUST RECEIVE THE DEPOSIT WITHIN 30 DAYS OF SIGNED APPROVAL AND CONFIRMATION THAT ELECTRICAL MAKE READY IS COMPLETE WITHIN 90 DAYS OF EQUIPMENT DELIVERY OR CHARGER STORAGE FEES WILL APPLY AND ESTIMATE PRICE WILL NO LONGER BE VALID, AS A CHANGE ORDER WILL NEED TO BE ISSUED IN ORDER TO BEGIN PROJECT. NOTE: Free charger equipment storage up to 6 months with 100% up front payment received.
To initiate any commercial or residential electric vehicle (EV) charging station installation project, Smart Charge America (SCA) requires a 50% initial deposit of the total project cost, due upon signing of the contract and prior to the commencement of any work. This deposit secures materials, labor, and scheduling for the project.
Upon completion of all construction, installation, and connection work as specified in the original project scope, hereinafter referred to as Construction Completion, SCA will issue an invoice for an additional 40% of the total project cost. Construction Completion is defined as the point at which SCA has fulfilled all contractual obligations related to physical installation, wiring, and equipment setup, as verified by SCA project manager and documented with photos, checklists, or other mutually agreed-upon EVidence. The 40% progress payment is due within 30 calendar days of invoice issuance, regardless of whether the project site is fully operational or activated, provided CC has been achiEVed.
The remaining 10% of the total project cost will be invoiced upon Project Completion, defined as the point at which the EV charging station(s) are fully operational, energized by the utility provider, compliant with all applicable inspections and codes, and ready for customer use. This final payment is due within 30 calendar days of invoice issuance. SCA retains this 10% holdback as an incentive to diligently resolve any outstanding issues and ensure full project activation.
In the EVent that Project Completion is delayed due to factors beyond SCA’s reasonable control, the 40% progress payment upon Construction Completion remains due as outlined in Section 2. Such factors include, but are not limited to:
a. Unexpected Change Orders: Additional work or modifications requested by the customer or required by third parties after Construction Completion, which were not included in the original project scope. SCA will provide a separate quote and timeline for change orders, and these will not delay payment for the original scope.b. Inspection Delays: Delays in obtaining approvals or permits from the local Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ), third-party inspectors, or entities enforcing codes such as Building Enforcement, Fire Marshall, OSHA, Weights & Measures, EPA and/or the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). SCA will cooperate fully to facilitate inspections but is not responsible for delays caused by these entities.c. Utility Power/Energizing Delays: Delays in the provision of electrical power or commissioning by the local utility provider, which prEVent the EV charging station(s) from being energized and fully operational.
The customer agrees to:
-
Provide timely access to the project site for construction and inspections.
-
Coordinate with the local utility provider to ensure power availability and energization.
-
Promptly review and approve any necessary change orders to avoid delays in Project Activation. Failure to fulfill these responsibilities may result in additional costs or delays, for which SCA is not liable.
All project quotes provided by Smart Charge America (SCA) for the installation of electric vehicle (EV) charging stations are valid for 30 calendar days from the date of issuance. To proceed with the project, the customer must provide written approval of the quote, including acceptance of the full project scope and terms, within this 30-day period. If approval is not received within 30 days, the quote will expire, and SCA reserves the right to rEVise pricing, scope, or terms based on current market conditions, labor costs, material prices, or other relEVant factors. A new quote will be required to initiate the project.
Unless explicitly stated in the quote, all projects are quoted and planned as a single-phase undertaking, with construction, installation, and commissioning / provisioning / activation to be completed within a continuous timeline as outlined in the project schedule. The quoted pricing, labor estimates, and material costs are based on the assumption that the entire project scope, as defined in the quote, will be executed without interruption or division into multiple phases. This ensures cost efficiency, scheduling accuracy, and compliance with the original project design.
The customer may not unilaterally divide the project into multiple phases or extend the project timeline beyond the agreed-upon schedule without prior written consent from SCA. Any request to phase the project (e.g., completing portions of the work over an extended period, such as years) must be submitted in writing within the 30-day quote validity period and is subject to SCA’s approval. If phasing is proposed after quote approval or project initiation, SCA reserves the right to:
a. REVise Pricing: Adjust the project cost to account for changes in labor rates, material prices, permitting fees, or other expenses incurred due to the extended timeline or fragmented scope. REVised pricing will be provided in a new quote or change order, subject to customer approval.b. Decline Phasing: Refuse to proceed with a phased approach if it is deemed infeasible due to operational, financial, or logistical constraints. In such cases, SCA may require the project to proceed as originally quoted or terminate the agreement without penalty, refunding any deposit less costs incurred (e.g., permitting, design, or material purchases).c. Assess Additional Costs: Charge additional fees for project management, storage of materials, or re-mobilization to the site for each phase, as these costs are not included in the original quote.
The customer acknowledges that phasing a project may result in significant dEViations from the original quote, including but not limited to:
-
Increased Costs: Material and labor prices may rise over time, particularly for projects spanning multiple months/years, due to inflation, supply chain fluctuations, or changes in regulatory requirements.
-
Permitting and Compliance: Permits, codes, or standards (e.g., National Electrical Code, ADA guidelines) may change between phases, requiring redesign or additional work not accounted for in the original quote.
-
Scheduling Disruptions: Phasing may disrupt SCA’s ability to allocate labor or equipment efficiently, leading to delays or higher costs.
If phasing is approved, SCA will provide a rEVised quote or phase-specific agreement detailing the updated scope, timeline, and costs for each phase. The customer must approve these terms in writing before work on any phase begins.
Equipment Lead Times: Level 2 charging equipment generally has a 3-5 week lead time and DCFC charging equipment generally has a 6-8 week lead time once order is placed, howEVer due to unpredictable supply chain constraints and/or any other demand fluctuations these could vary at any given time. SCA is not responsible nor will be held liable for any changes or damages in schedule, frequency or timelines associated with equipment ordering from any OEM for any reason at any time as these factors are beyond SCA’s control.
Validity: All estimates, quotes, proposals for services are valid for 30 days. However due to rapidly fluctuating material/equipment prices the quote may change at any time.
Governing Law, Forum, and Venue: These terms and conditions will be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to conflicts of laws principles. Without limiting the agreement to State arbitrate laws, Customer and SCA agree the exclusive venue for resolving any dispute between the parties, including but not limited to any Claims, that are not submitted or compelled to arbitration for any reason shall be in the State and Federal courts located in Travis County, Texas, and Customer consents to the jurisdiction of the federal and state courts located in Travis County, Texas. Customer hereby waives any objection to Travis County, Texas, as a forum and venue for the hearing of any dispute between Customer and SCA that is not compelled to arbitration for any reason, including but not limited to any objection based on convenience.
GENERAL:
(b) SCA will be excused from any obligation to the extent performance thereof is rendered impossible by acts of God, fire, flood, riots, material shortages, strikes, governmental acts, disasters, earthquakes, inability to obtain labor or materials through its regular sources, or any other reason beyond the reasonable control of SCA.
(c) None of the products or underlying information or technology may be exported or re-exported, directly or indirectly, contrary to US law or US Government export controls.
Smart Charge America a D.B.A. of Smart Charge Residential, Inc. – Acknowledgment – TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF SERVICE ESTIMATE
This Acknowledgment constitutes acceptance of Customer’s service estimate for the services specified on the service estimate (“Services”), subject to Customer’s consent to the Terms and Conditions of Service below. Any additional or different terms, including but not limited to those on Customer’s purchase order, are hereby objected to by Smart Charge America (“Contractor” or “SCA”). If SCA does not receive a written objection within 10 days of the date of this Acknowledgement, Customer’s service estimate, as amended or supplemented by this Acknowledgement, constitutes a binding obligation to engage SCA to provide the Services.
PRICES
Prices shown on the service estimate are in US dollars, include packaging for domestic shipment, and are exclusive of any other amounts including without limitation fees for export, special packaging, transportation and insurance.
PAYMENT
SCA accepts personal and/or cashier checks, in addition to all major credit/debit cards for your added convenience, however the Services are produced at bear market minimum cost, thus SCA asks if wishing to take advantage of lower cost that Customer pays with cash or check as highlighted inside your Service Estimate (SE) total. Customer hereby agrees and accepts by approving this service estimate that any certified validation documentation as may be required from the local Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ) is the sole responsibility of the customer to obtain at their own cost. Customer hereby declines the ability for SCA to obtain necessary permitting documentation on the property’s behalf for this project, unless otherwise requested in writing by customer prior to start of the installation, in which said charges will be itemized and billed at additional costs to the project. If a deposit is required the deposit payment must be received prior to work commencing. Returned checks will result in an NSF fee of $35.00 to be applied to Customer’s balance to be paid by digital invoice. Failure to pay at the completion of work can result in mechanic liens placed on the property and/or prosecution to the full extent of the law. This SE is only a written estimate of the cost involved via identified Scope of Work (SOW) above and should be approved in writing by Customer., Each party acknowledges that determining the resulting damages to SCA for SE rescission prior to install commencing would be impracticable or extremely difficult. Therefore, Customer agrees to pay SCA as liquidated damages, and not as a penalty, a 35% liquidated damages payment of the approved SE amount shall be due to SCA immediately, in order to cover SCA’s cost of purchased raw materials for the installation.
SCOPE OF SERVICES CHANGES
If the SOW changes or any deterioration or other unrelated items are discovered during the installation process, a revised SE from SCA will be issued to CUSTOMER for a mutually agreed set price. Any changes to the SE regarding the approved SOW, after the customer has confirmed and scheduled their installation appointment’s date/time, which is received by SCA within 24hours of said scheduled appointment, shall incur an additional re-dispatch fee of $299.00, in addition to any additional change order charges, should our appointment need to be rescheduled. The re-dispatch fee covers and includes, but is not limited to, any applicable equipment & supply restocking fees, additional labor used for logistics coordination & planning, in addition to extra truck roll & fueling expenses. SCA is not responsible for any additional professional trade skills needed to complete electrical installation via SOW, i.e. landscaping, drywall, paint or concrete repair/replacement, or whichever additional trade skills may be needed to complete the installation. Should any electrical interference or charging issues arise after installation it is the Customer’s responsibility to contact SCA immediately and allow SCA to honor any electrical work, failures or issues substantiated under our warranty terms. Any work performed or diagnosed by another electrical or trade company other than SCA will immediately void SCA’s original installation warranty and SCA will not be responsible or held liable for any payment made to said electrical or trade company as a result. This is necessary so that the Customer allows SCA to make right of any interference or charging issue occurrence without SCA having to incur additional excessive fees. If payment is not received within 30 days after completion of installation, any unpaid due amounts will be subject to interest at 3% per month, or, if less, the maximum rate allowed by law, which will be added to your bill. By signing below, you acknowledge that SCA reserves the right to post EV or EVSE related content and photos of installs through various social media platforms while protecting the privacy and identity of our customers. Please feel free to call us at (866) 885-3873 or email us at info@smartchargeamerica.com if you have any questions. We appreciate you supporting the EV industry and more importantly your commitment to sustainable transportation!
