Charge-M8, a prominent EV charging specialist, is proud to announce a new partnership with Tap Electric, an expanding software provider that supports the management of charging, access, and payments for EV charge points in the UK, Ireland, the Netherlands, and Belgium.
This partnership will see Charge-M8’s commercial EV chargers integrated with Tap Electric’s platform, enabling easy set-up and management through iOS and Android apps, as well as a web portal. The collaboration gives Charge-M8’s installation partners and customers access to leading EV management technology, making EV charge point operations simple for site owners and drivers.
Speaking about the partnership, Julian Smith, CEO and Founder of Charge-M8, said: “Having launched our commercial EV charging range to installers across the UK and Ireland in Q1 this year, we wanted to add another hardware agnostic platform to our stable, and Tap Electric is fast growing and establishing themselves as a brand that professional installers know and trust.
“We wanted to partner with Tap Electric after meeting the team and learning that we share their vision of frictionless EV charger management and driver experience. We’ve been impressed with the speed of the integration and on-going development. Additionally, their streamlined business model adds a really compelling solution for cost-effective management for our customers. Our installation partners are already experiencing our combined Charge-M8 commercial range and Tap Electric software working seamlessly together.”
Dan Pezim, CCO and Co-Founder of Tap Electric, added: “Tap Electric are delighted to partner with Charge-M8 to offer our market-leading experience for their installation partner clients and customers. Our combined software and infrastructure solutions will mean site owners can manage their charge points at multiple locations on one intuitive platform. We’re looking forward to supporting Charge-M8 as they continue their rapid expansion.”
The Tap Electric platform eliminates the need for multiple provider connections, allowing Charge-M8 and its installer partners to mix existing OCPP-compliant charge point brands with Charge-M8 units on the same site.
Charge-M8’s Technical Director, Iain Hughes, commented: “A critical factor in choosing Tap Electric was their on-going development of load management features. We’re currently working on a game-changing new development with the team at Tap Electric, and can’t wait to announce more about this exciting feature in the coming weeks.”
