Gridserve offers discount for new charging app

Gridserve is celebrating the launch of its new charging app with a 20 per cent discount on charging paid for via the app.

The app helps users find, pay and monitor their charging sessions, and can be used at over 190 Gridserve locations. These include its electric forecourts, electric super hubs at motorway service areas and electric retail hubs at locations such as Dobbies.

It helps users find the best charging location, which then can be navigated to through Google Maps, Apple Maps or Waze. 

The app has real-time, up-to-date availability statuses on all charging locations. Once at a Gridserve charger, users can monitor their charge, see their charging curves and track when their vehicle will be ready to continue on its journey. They can also use the app to pay securely for the session.

Gridserve's app can be used at almost 200 locations served by the provider.

Additionally, receipts will be automatically emailed to the user’s chosen email along with a charging summary. The driver’s 12 previous charging session can also be stored on their account.

Rebecca Trebble, chief customer experience officer, said: “200,000 charging sessions are recorded on the Gridserve Electric Highway every month and the new app will make those charging sessions even easier. We have listened to our users and made it easier to receive receipts as we look to constantly improve our service."
