Unified payments, built for scale.
Fleet managers are increasingly looking for ways to simplify electric vehicle (EV) charging – particularly solutions that eliminate the frustration of juggling multiple apps across different charging networks. Nayax is addressing this challenge with a unified payment approach designed to make EV charging as straightforward as refuelling a conventional vehicle.
Since its founding in 2005, Nayax has grown from a cashless payment and IoT service provider for unattended retail into a global payments and merchant services platform. Today, the company operates in more than 120 countries, delivering advanced payment solutions that are reshaping the EV charging experience for both operators, fleet managers and drivers alike.
A single solution for EV drivers
EV charging fragmentation remains a major pain point. Drivers are often required to maintain several apps and accounts to access different charging networks, complicating expense management and reimbursement processes.
Nayax addresses this issue by offering tap-and-go payment terminals and integrated charge point management capabilities, developed specifically for EV charging. Fleet drivers can simply plug in their vehicle, tap a personal credit card or company-issued prepaid card to the terminal, and charge their EV – no app downloads and no irritating logins.
“We’re providing a payment terminal with firmware built specifically for EV charging,” says Dylan Winik, CEO of Nayax Australia. “There’s no need for multiple apps or complex integrations. Drivers just tap and charge.”
Centralised control for fleet managers
The Nayax solution provides flexibility, transparency, and control for both operators and fleet managers. The technology can be retrofitted onto operators’ existing chargers without compromising waterproof ratings or functionality. Whether it’s Tritium, ABB, or another brand, the system connects through the cloud via OCPI, no physical rewiring required.
Seamless communication between chargers and backend systems also enables fleet managers to see all charging transactions in one place, whether across their own network or through third-party providers. With centralised reporting, businesses can track charging usage by driver, vehicle, or location. The system also has cost-control mechanisms, such as the ability to set spending limits, for efficient expense management.
“This is a fully end-to-end solution, from the tap at the charger through to reconciliation by the finance team,” says Dylan. “Fleet providers can issue prepaid cards, define weekly limits, monitor usage, and identify misuse. This unified approach allows fleet administrators to consolidate EV charging expenses across multiple networks, and integrate them into their existing financial systems.”
Supporting choice and accessibility
Nayax’s goal is not to replace apps entirely, but to give drivers flexibility. For many users – particularly those less comfortable with technology – the option to pay by card rather than having to navigate an app can significantly influence EV adoption.
“The idea is to offer choice,” says Dylan. “Apps work well for loyalty and added services, but some drivers just want to tap and charge. Offering both options helps make EV charging more accessible to everyone.”
Expanding offering, partnerships and global reach
Completing Nayax’s EV offering is the EV Kiosk – a centralised outdoor payment station that supports multiple chargers from one location. Users select their charger, make a payment, and can even stop the charge session, with digital receipts customised for fleet or corporate use.
Nayax is already working with some of Australia’s largest EV charging networks, including Exploren, Chargefox, and NRMA. Its technology is also being trialled with EVX to support new funding requirements that mandate card-present payment options at chargers.
Globally, Nayax devices are installed on approximately 70% of fast-charging networks in the United States. The company also has a strong presence across Europe. With more than 1,200 employees and 500 in-house developers, the company continues to evolve its EV charging solutions, rapidly delivering new capabilities in response to market and customer needs.
“By combining payments and reporting, we offer an enhanced user experience, and help fleets modernise their EV charging infrastructure and simplify payment management,” says Dylan. “This is how we bring the ease and familiarity of traditional refuelling into the electric era.”
