Can I start charging without using a mobile app?

Scan to Charge (AKA Guest Charging or QR Code Charging) allows drivers to charge their cars without an app or membership. Just scan a QR code at the station.

What is scan to charge? And how it works?

Scan to Charge, also known as Guest Charging or QR Code Charging, is an easy way for electric vehicle drivers to charge their cars.

You don't need to download apps; everything happens in your smartphone's web browser.

How to begin this process?

Scan the QR code at the charging station using your phone's camera to start charging.

This action opens a web page where you can enter your details and choose a payment method. This public charging process is quick and straightforward, making it accessible for everyone.

Is this supported on all chargers?

No. The charger operator must make this function available to guest users. This is typically indicated by a sign asking drivers to scan a code with their mobile phone. If such a sign or sticker does not exist, you can not use this method.
