Allstar Business Solutions has partnered with Zap-Map to simplify finding and paying for EV charging for its customers.
The Allstar network will now be able to add their Allstar electric card to the Zap-Map app, enabling drivers to pay for EV charging at participating Allstar network sites via Zap-Pay. Drivers will no longer need to use multiple payment methods across the different networks, reducing time, effort and confusion, the partnership said.
Additionally, Allstar customers will be able to search for charge points across the entire Allstar electric charging network using a filter and map view, allowing for drivers to plan routes in advance and on the road.
The app also displays charge point information and site availability in real time and allows its users to plan and save routes via an in-app route planner. Allstar added its drivers will no longer need to suffer from EV range anxiety, thanks to the planning technology provided through the app.
Paul Holland, managing director of UK fuel at Allstar Business Solutions, said: “Partnering with Zap-Map has been a key strategic move for Allstar, allowing us to offer our customers a simplified, seamless in-app experience when charging on the road.
“Together we are able to support businesses through every step of their EV charging journey, whether that’s making it easier to search for a charging location, offering route planning and live updates on the status of charging points, or easing the payment process.
“By increasing convenience for our customers and simplifying charging in this way, we are helping to remove some of the biggest barriers to entry for potential EV fleets.”
