Allstar has relaunched its Co-Pilot app to include access and payment for EV charging.

Allstar Chargepass customers can use the app to pay at 90% of charge points on the Allstar charging network

The app already takes away the stress of finding Allstar-compatible fuel sites and now provides on-the-go support and enhanced convenience for Allstar Chargepass customers.

This includes the ability to pay for charging at 90% of charge points on the Allstar electric charging network.

The app further enhances convenience by enabling drivers to easily locate nearby EV charge points and receive real-time information.

This is alongside its existing fuel capabilities. For those managing more than one type of vehicle, whether EV or traditional fuel, businesses and drivers can use a single app that will show them all their Allstar accepting sites across the country. As with the full range from Allstar, any charging paid for through the app will be consolidated into a HMRC-compliant invoice.

Ashley Tate, MD, Allstar Chargepass UK, commented: “It’s our goal to make journeys as smooth and seamless as possible for our EV drivers. As such, upgrading the existing Allstar Co-Pilot app so customers can pay at more than 90% of charge points across our electric charging network while benefiting from its features and functionality only made sense.”

He added: “Payments is a constantly evolving space with new technologies emerging all the time, and the way people are making payments is changing too. That’s why it was important to provide alternative payment methods with the additional functionalities that the revamped Allstar Co-Pilot app offers.”

Paul Holland, MD UK fleet at parent firm Corpay, which recently rebranded from Fleetcor, commented: “While many businesses are in their transition to EV, there are some that are yet to begin but the collective understanding is that it is the present and future of motoring.

“We have long held a reputation as providing an exceptional service for fuel customers and we are pleased to echo this with the Allstar Co-Pilot app for EV drivers. It is able to support them wherever they are up to, if they have full EV, partial or are still entirely traditionally fuelled, and will continue to provide for them for years to come.”
