CHPT• ChargePoint adds QR-based direct payments with Cariqa
- ChargePoint partnered with European payments provider Cariqa to add direct, ad-hoc payments to its be.ENERGISED platform for CPOs.
- Drivers can start sessions by scanning a QR code, paying via digital wallets, cards, or PayPal without an app or account.
- CPOs retain control of pricing, branding, visibility, customer relationship while targeting walk-up demand to lift charger utilization.
- The deal adds a direct sales channel via Cariqa’s demand-partner network, widening driver reach across Europe without building payment infrastructure.
- Initial rollout is set for Germany, Austria, Switzerland, France, Italy, the UK and Ireland, with a demo planned at ICNC 2026 in Berlin.
