Electric Vehicle (EV) charging specialist Charge-M8 is thrilled to announce a new partnership with Tap Electric, a rapidly growing software provider that manages charging, access, and payment systems for EV charge points across the UK, Ireland, the Netherlands, and Belgium.
This collaboration integrates Charge-M8’s commercial EV chargers into the Tap Electric platform, offering simple set-up and commissioning through free iOS and Android apps, as well as a web portal. This partnership ensures that Charge-M8’s installation partners and customers can benefit from some of the most advanced EV management technology available. Tap Electric’s system simplifies EV charge point management for both site owners and drivers, making operations seamless.
Explaining the choice to partner with Tap Electric, Charge-M8 CEO and Founder Julian Smith 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.”
Tap Electric’s CCO and Co-Founder, Dan Pezim, commented: “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 is designed to eliminate the need to connect with multiple providers. This partnership allows Charge-M8 and its installer partners to integrate OCPP-compliant charge point brands with Charge-M8 models on the same site.
Iain Hughes, Technical Director at Charge-M8, added: “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.”
