Motor Fuel Group’s ultra-rapid charging network MGF EV Power has now gone live on the Allstar Business Solutions Zap-Map network.

This means company vehicle drivers can pay for charging at MFG EV Power sites across the country using their Allstar One Electric card lodged digitally within the Zap-Map app.

The network currently has more than 230 chargers across the country and is aiming to install around 3,000 by 2031.

The network’s sites are typically at traditional petrol station locations, and are installed in charging hubs with at least four charging devices.

Martin Symes, operations director EV network at MFG, said: “Extending our relationship with both Zap-Map and Allstar through their joint integration and bringing the MFG EV Power network to Allstar customers via the Zap-Map app supports our strategy in providing an easy access network.

“Working in collaboration with our partners in this way is key to delivering  customer confidence and improving their experience in the transition to EV.”

MFG EV Power currently has 235 chargers across 46 sites, with a further 10 sites due to open by the end of the year, averaging six chargers per site.

Zap-Map says the partnership gives fleets one clear overview of all electricity costs, as well as a simplified admin portal delivering full visibility of spend across fleets.

The partnership preceded Allstar parent company Fleetcor’s  recent investment in Zap-Map to provide a strategic opportunity for growth in the UK fleet market and in markets outside the UK.

Users of the Zap-Pay payment app now have access to more than 3,000 charging devices on six networks across the UK.

Other networks on the app include Osprey, ESB Energy, Char.gy, GeniePoint and Mer.

Zap-Pay was launched by Zap-Map last year and provides a single-app payment system that uses a credit or debit card to pay for charging.

Zap-Map currently has more than 430,000 registered users and lists more than 95% of the UK’s public charge points on its network.

The company says more than 75% of UK EV drivers have downloaded the Zap-Map app, with growth in downloads more than keeping pace with the rapid growth in the EV market.
