How to use EVC charge points

How to use the EVC App:
- Plug-in the charge point connector and open EVC App.
- Scan the QR code on the side of the charger.
- Choose your payment option.
- Start charging.
How to use contactless payments:
- Plug-in the charge point connector
- Tap your card on the payment terminal to initiate the connection
- Tap your card to the payment terminal to stop the connection and unlock the charge cable.
Zap-Pay
You can use Zap-Pay to pay for your charging sessions at any EVC charge points.
Zap-Pay is the simple way to pay for charging within the Zapmap app. Select the charger you'd like to use within the app (a helpful Zap-Pay will pop up in a banner) and start your charging session at the press of a button.
You can check on the status of your charge at any time to see the estimated cost and the charge time remaining.
VAT receipts for all charging sessions are stored within the app, and can be accessed at any time to download to your device.
Where are EVC charge points located?
All EVC points can be found on Zapmap by using the network filter. This can be used on the desktop and mobile apps, and displays only those points operated by EVC.
Charging types and speeds can be filtered too, showing only those points that are compatible with users’ needs.
Select 'Filters' -> 'Networks' -> 'EVC ' to view only EVC charge points.

How does EVC compare to other networks in terms of pricing?
Zapmap monitors the prices of charging on the public network and reports on the prices charged by the top 10* rapid charging networks. The prices are updated on a monthly basis here: Rapid Charging: Top 10 Network Pricing
The price to charge an electric vehicle (EV) on the public charging network can vary substantively, and prices are increasing due to current issues in the energy market.
Updated on a monthly basis, the Zapmap Price Index shows the difference in prices paid depending on the type of charger and will also track how this is changing over time.
