Does it work with all chargers?
Does it work with all chargers?
Yes — the Charge Card works with 100% of UK public chargers. The simplest way to use it is by tapping at a contactless payment terminal. Where a charger doesn't have a contactless terminal (such as Tesla Superchargers or Charge Place Scotland), employees can add the card as a payment method directly within the charge point operator's app, just like any other Visa card.
In rare cases, a brand new charging network may not be immediately recognised by the system. If this happens, our team can verify and whitelist the charger promptly.
