                  How it works

The entire charging process, from authentication to initiation to billing, happens instantly and automatically. Your customers’ data is not exposed, to any 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.

Plug&Charge
Solutions

These CPOs leveled up with Plug&Charge to create the coveted charging experience

Extend Plug&Charge to your entire network

Plug&Charge Remote brings seamless charging to legacy charge stations that don't yet support ISO15118 by matching session data from both the vehicle and charging station through Hubject's algorithmic matching platform.

How It Works

When a driver plugs in, both systems send session information to our matching algorithm, which then pairs the vehicle with the charger, thereby initiating the charging session automatically. This bridge technology enables the Plug&Charge experience across a wider range of charging infrastructure.

Benefits

Charge Point Operators (CPOs) can enable Plug&Charge across their entire network, old and new, with minimal integration effort.

Electric vehicle Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) can deliver seamless charging at significantly more locations without modifying their existing implementation.

eMobility ServiceProviders (eMSPs) require no changes as their contracts automatically work atmore stations.

Why Choose Remote

Unlike proprietary solutions like Autocharge, Plug&Charge Remote maintains the security and openness of the established Plug&Charge framework.

Making digital charging innovation a key perk of car ownership

Plug in.
Start charging.
Pay by bank card.

Plug&Charge Direct enables drivers to charge without apps, RFID cards, or charge contracts by combining the seamless Plug&Charge experience with direct payment using debit or credit cards.

How It Works

Drivers add their payment card details to the Plug&Charge Contract Wallet in their vehicle's account, navigate to participating stations with transparent pricing displayed in the electric vehicle dashboard interface or app, plug in, and charging starts automatically.

Who Benefits

This solution opens Plug&Charge access to drivers that today prefer to use physical bank cards when charging, and non-contract users like rental car drivers, and shared fleet operators who need immediate charging without subscription management. By integrating direct payment capability into thePlug&Charge ecosystem, we're making seamless charging available to everyone.

Easy Implementation

For ChargePoint Operators (CPOs), Plug&Charge Direct expands access to new customer segments with straightforward implementation. Connect to Hubject's eRoaming platform, create bilateral offers with business-to-consumer (B2C) ad-hoc pricing, and you're ready to accept Plug&Charge using direct payments.

Connecting the dots of public charging with fewer steps along the user journey

Guide drivers to reliable Plug&Charge stations

The Plug&Charge Confidence Score helps electric vehicle Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs)and eMobility Service Providers (eMSPs) offer next-level charge point reliability data by sharing which charging stations reliably support Plug&Charge technology, based on real, recent charging session data.

How It Works

We continuously monitor Plug&Charge performance across our network and provide this information through our API, enabling you to implement recommendation management and flag charge points according to their Plug&Charge reliability.

Benefits for OEMs &eMSPs

This means drivers can be confident of a Plug&Charge capable charge point before they leave home, and you can prioritize verified locations in navigation systems and app recommendations.

Real Data, Real Confidence

Instead of relying on theoretical capability, the Confidence Score uses actual charging session outcomes to validate station performance, reducing charging anxiety and improving the overall EV experience.

Hubject, Gireve, Irdeto Partnership to Expand Global Plug&Charge Access

Together, we've created unprecedented interoperability that allows CPOs, EMPs, and OEMs to choose their preferred Plug&Charge ecosystem operator while maintaining access to all other networks through existing API integrations.This partnership connects 4 million Plug&Charge-capable EVs globally, delivering immediate value without new technical development.

For CPOs: Expand network reach without individual platform integrations while reducing integration overhead.

For eMSPs: Leverage enhanced interoperability through existing API connections, offering customers seamless access across multiple networks.

For OEMs: Implement Plug&Charge confidently, knowing your vehicles can access the industry's most comprehensive charging ecosystem without vendor restrictions.

With ISO 15118 becoming a regulatory requirement in key markets, this partnership ensures compliance while accelerating adoption.
