Frequently Asked Questions and our answers

If, despite careful testing of our products, a product is defective or no longer functions properly, please contact us.

Please fill out the following PDF document “INBAY Support Request”  – and send it to us by e-mail to info@inbay.systems so that we can provide you with the best possible support.

We currently offer INBAY for over 85 vehicle models. You can find them in the product overview. We are working hard on further models, which is why new solutions are added regularly!

Due to the inductive charging technology, your smartphone heats up slightly when charging. This is the heat loss that occurs during charging. However, this is completely normal and harmless and occurs with every Qi charger.

Due to the short distance between the transmitter and receiver, INBAY has a very high level of efficiency. Our Qi-certified charging technology regularly measures the heat development so that your battery does not get too warm. The temperature control automatically switches off charging at 65°. This ensures the greatest possible safety for your smartphone.

The latest generation INBAY applications support fast charging with 10W or up to 15W charging power. Older systems have an output of 5W.

This is not a problem, as INBAY is Qi-certified, induction charging is only activated when a Qi-enabled smartphone is actually placed on the tray. You can therefore use the tray as usual and place coins, keys, etc. there. However, you should not place a smartphone together with coins, credit cards, etc. on the INBAY tray.

Installation can be carried out by anyone with a little technical understanding and skill. You can find illustrated installation instructions and installation videos here.

You can find illustrated step-by-step instructions here as a PDF download or in the respective INBAY article under the “Installation instructions” tab

We have also created installation videos for various models.

INBAY can be completely retrofitted from the outside and should not be a problem when returning the lease. You should of course keep the original mat or the original compartment!

The statutory warranty in Germany applies. As you know it from all other products.
