Electric vehicles are now an increasingly common sight on roads across France, and for good reason—their use is far better for the environment. Unlike petrol or diesel cars, electric motors emit no CO2. To make charging at dedicated stations easier, charging point operators have introduced charging cards. How do they work? What are their benefits? Bip&Go, a leading name in mobility in France and Europe, explains everything you need to know.
A charging card is a pass provided either by the company managing a network of electric charging points or by a third-party mobility provider. Its purpose is to make the use of charging stations straightforward and simplify the payment process.
When charging your electric vehicle, simply hold the card up to the charging point’s screen to activate it and set your charging preferences. There’s no need for any other payment method—the card is directly linked to a subscription, and payment is made automatically. All that’s left is to connect your car to the charging point using your cable and top up your battery.
The benefits of a charging card depend on the card you choose. A card issued by a charging point operator will only work with that company’s own stations, whereas a card from a third-party provider like Bip&Go gives you access to a much wider network of charging points.
The main advantages of a charging card are speed and reliability. It removes compatibility issues when activating charging stations and makes payment seamless. Linked to a subscription, it usually means a single monthly payment on your bill, so you don’t have to pay each time you charge.
Not all charging points are operated by the same company, so pricing policies vary. This means there are significant price differences from one charging point to another. Expect to pay between €2.50 and €10.60 for enough energy to drive 100 km.
The type of charging point also affects the price. Rapid charging points, which can charge your battery to 80% in under 30 minutes, have a higher kWh rate than standard points.
Exclusively for Bip&Go toll subscription customers, this electric charging card allows drivers to top up their battery at over 300,000 charging points across Europe. The key advantage of the Bip&Go charging card is its compatibility with almost all charging points nationwide, making recharging your vehicle easier than ever.
