From what I understand, you need to view the prices in the app. It is badly explained in the tariff information sheet here:
https://bmw-public-charging.com/o/dc...45/tariffs/pdf
Looking in the app, prices and methods of charging seem to vary by country. France charges by the hour (€18/h = €0.18/kWh @ 100kW charge rate = £0.15). Belgium charges by the kWh (€0.28/kWh = £0.24/kWh). Germany is by the kWh (€0.35/kWh = £0.30). You can filter the app just to show IONITY chargers.
I am very surprised how cheap they are considering the price of domestic energy in mainland Europe. It seems to be even higher than the UK!
I met a guy in a Polestar. He lives in Wales, but his wife is from Gibraltar. He said that he regularly drives down there, hopping between IONITY chargers. He said it worked really well.
