Rightcharge Raises £500K for EV Payments
Rightcharge raised £500K to scale fleet EV charging payments across Europe.
Fleet electrification is not only a charger problem. It is also a payments and reimbursement problem.
What happened
UK startup Rightcharge raised £500K in growth funding to scale EV charging payments for fleets across Europe.
The company focuses on the payment layer around workplace, home, depot and public charging. That includes helping businesses manage charging costs and reimburse drivers as EV fleets become more distributed.
Why it matters
Fleet operators need more than electric vehicles and charging points. They need systems that can track who charged where, how much it cost, which cost centre should pay and whether drivers are being reimbursed properly.
The funding amount is small, but the workflow is real. Without payments and billing infrastructure, fleet electrification becomes harder to manage at scale.
The bigger picture
Mobility infrastructure is becoming software-defined. As companies shift to electric fleets, the operational stack expands into energy management, charger access, payments, reimbursement and reporting. Rightcharge sits in that less glamorous but necessary layer of the EV transition.
