How to Set Up a Billing Account
To submit measurement requests, you will need to set up a billing account in the data portal. This guide walks you through the process step by step.
Step 1: Navigate to Billing Accounts
Log in to the data portal at https://app.momentum-transfer.com. In the left sidebar, scroll down and click on Billing accounts.

Step 2: Create a Billing Account
On the Billing accounts page, click the + Create billing account button.

Step 3: Add your billing details
A form will appear asking you to fill in the following details:
- Attach organisation — select the organisation that will be funded through this account
- Account name — enter a name for your billing account
- Legal name — enter the legal name of your institution or company that would be reflected on the invoice
- Billing email — enter the email address where invoices should be sent
- VAT / Tax ID (optional) — enter your VAT or tax identification number. Please note the following:
- Companies based within the EU — we strongly recommend adding your VAT number to avoid being charged 19% German VAT on your invoice.
- Companies based outside the EU — no VAT number is required
- Country — select your country
- Address — fill in your full billing address
Once all required fields are complete, click Create to set up your account.

Your billing account is now ready to use.
Step 4: Select Your Billing Account When Submitting a Measurement Request
When submitting your measurement request, a pop-up will appear. Under Billing details, select the billing account you set up in Step 3, choose your preferred beamtime, and confirm your credit type. Once everything looks correct, click Submit request to proceed.
