A wireless power transmitter (101) an output circuit (203, 103) comprises a transmitter coil (103) for which generates the power transfer signal a drive signal generated by a driver circuit (201) is applied. A power loop controller (209) implements a power control loop for controlling the drive signal to adjust a power level of the power transfer signal in response to power control error messages received from the power receiver (105). A mode store (213) stores a plurality of power level modes for the power receiver where each power level mode is associated with a reference power level for the power transfer signal. A mode circuit (211) adapts the drive signal to set the power level of the power transfer signal to a first reference value in response to receiving a mode request message where the first reference value corresponds to a reference power level for a first power level mode indicated in the mode request message.
