# How to add a new service type. Step 4: Night rates

Learn about night rates in Onde.Light.

A night rate lets you charge different fares during specific times, days, or dates. You can add one to any service, either when you configure a new service or later for an existing one.

You can also add several night rates to the same service and give each a custom name, such as “Weekend,” “Rush hour,” or “Holiday rate.” The name shows which period the rate applies to.

#### How to Set Up a Night Rate

1.  In My hub, open the **Services** tab.
    
2.  Open the service you want to add the night rate to.
    
3.  Click the **Night rates** subtab.
