How it works

The entire charging process, from authentication to initiation to billing, happens instantly and autonomously. Your customers’ data is always shielded from hacking and fraud by ISO 15118.

Step 1

Communication between the EV and the charging station starts as soon as the plug is inserted into the charging socket.

Step 2

The EV’s charging contract is identified and matched with its eMobility service provider, completing the authentication process.

Step 3

Within seconds, the charging session begins.

Step 4

The price of the charging session is calculated automatically and an invoice is sent to all parties involved.
