Tomorrow’s EV charging and payment solutions today

Putting user experience at the centre of a smarter mobility future

It takes EV specialists to transform the EV charging experience for drivers. Our range of user-centric, tailored payment solutions cater specifically to resolving the pain-points that all too frequently undermine the charging experience for EV drivers…

Locating and booking a compatible, working charger.
Finding accurate information on charger capability and tariffs.
Paying quickly via app, card, or cash, at the charger, terminal, or kiosk.
Purchasing combined tickets (e.g., parking, charging, and onward journeys) in a single transaction.

Getting an expense receipt.

Reaching human support in the event of a payment problem.

Let Paythru
help.

Paythru is uniquely positioned to provide comprehensive solutions that help growth businesses in the EV charging sector. By moving the charge point payment into our cloud platform, we lift the user experience away from the physical charge point.

That allows behind-the-scenes integration with other parties, whilst providing a single clear transaction for the user. And because everything happens in the cloud, the payment processing layer can be easily accessed through any payment endpoint: apps, websites, payment terminals, point of sale systems, connected cars, or even payment links sent via text message by helpdesk teams.

Our solutions handle the complexity of multiple charge point operators, service providers and back-office EV charging platform integrations. Our aggregated finance and mobility management solutions make this process simple for both operators and users.

Paythru at work: use cases

Our platform is highly customisable to different use cases. Here are just some of the ways it can solve charging experience problems.

A car park operates parking and charging via separate entities. Our platform can set the terms, present the user with a single payment, and split the payment between the car park operator and EV charging company.

Two EV charging networks want to allow users to access each other’s charge points via their app and pay each other commission. Our independent payment layer can manage this.

A train station ticket machine wants to sell bundles of parking, charging, and train tickets at its payment kiosk, with each provider paid directly. This can be easily managed once the charger is setup on our platform.

Charger pre-booking

Loyalty schemes, offers, and rewards

Email receipts for business expenses

Route planning services for drivers and fleet managers to take advantage of lower cost chargepoints and reduce long-term charging costs.

Vehicle-2-grid integrations to deliver dynamic tariff setting, payments orchestration between multiple parties, and driver nudges to support load balancing.
