Credit Card EV Chargers

Accept payments by credit card for your EV charging hub

We believe that a simple site-wide credit card payment solution for public electric car chargers is the best option for frictionless and easy electric driver experience.

While early adopters were willing to immerse themselves in every feature of electric car driving, including app sign ups & check-ins, as mainstream EV adoption accelerates, Australian & New Zealand drivers are demanding familiar and easy-to-use public charging.

Additionally, drivers are becoming less inclined to share the personal details required to operate a smartphone app. As one driver put it to the EVUp consulting team 'I don't have to give my name and address when I fill up with petrol, why do I have to when charging my car?' 

Overseas EV drivers now expect tap & go credit card billing

This expectation from electric car drivers is being seen in more mature overseas markets, particularly the United Kingdom where all charging stations are being retrofitted or installed with tap and go systems. 

This change was mandated by the British Government in 2019 to reduce confusion for drivers experiencing a wide range of charge point operator methods, platforms and billing systems.

As well as making it easier to access AC and DC charging, the ubiquitous nature of tap & go systems - either with a physical credit card or via a phone wallet - means new EV drivers adjust to the nuances of public charging more quickly and sharing that experience with others looking to decarbonise their personal transport.

And, because the Australian EV transition is several years behind other developed countries, we anticipate the demand for credit card billing will increase rapidly over time; even now, we're already experiencing it.
