The PAYG principle Firstly, it's important to realise that RingGo Corporate operates on a pay-as-you-go basis. This means that an intial float is established which is then debited with each use. By taking this approach we've eliminated the normal costs and delays of credit-checking and referencing and so minimised bad-debt risk. Because of this we've been able to keep the monthly costs to you as low as possible.
The sign-up process can be undertaken entirely over the web. You'll be asked a number of questions about your organisation so it will help to have details such as VAT registration and Company numbers to hand. You will also be asked to make an intial payment of funds to bring the account itself into being. This can be undertaken by credit or debit card. These funds will establish an initial account balance. The balance will then decrement as transactions take place. Once it reaches a minimum threshold you will be reminded to top-up. Alternatively, if it's easier, but only if you give us prior authorisation, we can top up the funds on your behalf.
You can at any time close your account and funds will be returned with the exception of a £10 closing fee. You can also, at any time, suspend the use of your account at no charge.

Administration suite Once funds have been credited to the account a user name and password combination will be e-mailed to you. If you are the person who undertook the sign-up process then you will become the master administrator. It might therefore be best if this process is undertaken by a colleague in human resources, your fleet manager or perhaps your departmental or company financial controller. Depending on the package you have chosen the master administrator can create supplementary administrator rights for others.
The log-in details will give access to the web based account administration suite. Essentially the corporate account is all about creating "permissions" or rules. For example a simple rule might be that the vehicle with registration WR55GDV can park on the account regardless of which mobile phone the driver calls from. These rules are known as "Parking Privileges". Parking Privileges can be created by any administrator. They simply need to combine phone numbers or vehicles (or both) which have previously been entered into the "hoppers" using logical rules.
Once one or more rules have been defined then the Corporate account is effectively open for business.
Parking on the corporate account The process of parking on the account is much as you might imagine. The normal process of making a RingGo phone call is followed but if the vehicle, or the user, falls into the scope of one of the defined Parking Privileges then rather than requesting credit or debit card confirmation, the system gives the additional option to "park on account". If selected, then the charge is debited directly from the corporate account credit balance. The individual will still be able to see the parking session details from their own RingGo personal account but they won't be able to download a receipt. Full itemised VAT receipts are made available to the master administrator complete with cost code analysis for those individuals choosing to sign up for the more comprehensive packages.
