New lower rates — from 1 May
We're reducing our rapid charging prices — and introducing dedicated weekend rates for the first time.
From 1 May, users will pay just 48p per kWh on weekends with the app (55p contactless) — that's from 5pm Friday through to midnight Sunday, plus all bank holidays. Weekday app prices are coming down too, to 69p/kWh with the app, 79p contactless.
Simple, transparent pricing

Frequently asked questions
What is the pre-authorisation charge?
When you start a session, a small temporary hold is placed on your card (similar to pay-at-pump at a petrol station). This is not a payment — it's released automatically once the session ends and the actual cost is calculated. Depending on your bank, this may take a few hours to clear.
Where can I find an evyve charger?
We have over 200 rapid and ultra-rapid charging locations across England and Wales, mainly at Greene King pubs and restaurants — so you can grab a bite while you charge. Use the evyve app or check here to find your nearest.
Do I need a membership or subscription?
No. All our rates are pay-as-you-go with no monthly fee, and no commitment. The app is free to download and gives you access to our cheapest rates.
