3. Select Payment Method

Choose the payment card to use for charging. You can add a new card if needed.

The first time, you must register a payment card. Follow the instructions in the app. There is no fee to register a payment card. Depending on the card issuer, you might need to approve the addition of the card through 3D Secure, such as an authentication code, Bank ID, or similar.


4. Create account

If you want to keep track of which vehicle you are charging, you can select your vehicle.


5. Plug in Cable and Start Charging

Plug the charging cable into your vehicle and tap Start Charging. Wait for your vehicle to start charging. Check that the status in the app changes to Charging.
