UpCharge: Intuitive, Intelligent & integrated (& Australian)

If you've been researching EV charging, you'll have noticed the term 'OCPP'.

This stands for Open Charge Point Protocol; it's a way of connecting all charging locations on the EVUp network to a central management system so you can access a range of information, such as session times, carbon offsets and revenue.

EVUp's UpCharge software allows you to view all charging sessions, manage access and payments on one screen, helps you identify when their charging should be scaled up.

UpCharge also provides an EV charging portal for our venue operators, so they can view current sessions, download historical records, track payments and forecast energy usage.

EVUp's UpCharge software has been developed by our in-house team, right here in Australia

Why is software so important for EV charging?

As BEVs & PHEVs move into common use in Australia & New Zealand, we’re working with businesses, organisations & venue owners to plan & install strategic EV charging locations that will meet the growing demand for reliable, Australian-made EV charging units.

UpCharge supports this rollout in a number of ways.

EV driver journey: UpCharge helps EV drivers find their nearest public charge point, start/stop charging and pay for power using a contactless, anonymous billing gateway.

Site owner journey: UpCharge assists site owners to track charging usage, historical data, revenue and reimbursement in one simple online portal.

Our UpCharge SaaS solution helps you deliver 

Slick, reliable user experience & four ways to Collect Revenue  

You don't have to hand over your personal details when buying petrol, so why should drivers need to when buying electrons?

Based on overseas trends, we believe easy & universal methods of payment will become mainstream, rather than smartphone apps that require log ins.

That said EV drivers expect an app hence we have no less than four methods of payment. You just need to decide which payment gateway best suits your customer. 

UpCharge SaaS - reliable, resilient and easy to use

So you just need to add power.. 

We see no reason to make any of this difficult. We offer a complete end to end solution. UpCharge software is powerful yet easy to use thanks to multiple wizards, presets  and helpful hints embedded in every process. 

Furthermore, EV drivers rely heavily on their electric cars to get to the places they work, play and stay. Therefore, reliability and resilience is vital to fully supporting the EVUp EV charging network. 

We've designed and built our EVUp charging software, UpCharge, from the ground up to enable:

• Mature software development life cycle – ensures only fully tested and operational software is ever deployed
• ITIL aligned processes and procedures – ensures any identified issues are attended to and (importantly) resolved in a timely fashion
• Active-active site resilience – Our servers are hosted at two data centres such that if there’s an issue at one site drivers can still charge their electric car.
• Expert EV support staff – local-over-the-phone support for site owners and drivers by a team who understand the difference between a Tritium and Delta DC fast charger.

The EV Charging software that connects the EVUp network has been built from the ground up and in-house by our team in Melbourne.
