Our chargers and smart app work with all Octopus and OVO tariffs, however, as the Octopus Intelligent & OVO Charge anytime tariff requires full control over charging, your car must also integrate with them. You can check your compatibility via the below links:

You do not need to be with any specific energy provider or tariff for your EV charger to work, it’s just advised to speak to your energy company as most offer off peak charging tariffs which can save you a significant amount in charging costs if utilised.
The waEV-charge EV chargers are suitable for both single domestic dwellings, apartment blocks and commercial environments. As standard, our EV1i charger is setup for single domestic properties however our UK based team will custom build your charger based on your requirement.
The EV1i is a tethered EV charger meaning it comes with a 5-meter cable attached to plug into your car. The EV1s is untethered meaning you are able to connect your own charging cable. The EV1s does not come with a charging cable.
If the route of cabling or the charger location crosses any boundary lines that are not owned by yourself, permissions would be needed from the relevant authority for it to be installed.
If not connecting straight away, please reset the charger as well as close down and restart the waEV-charge installer app, you should now be able to connect to the relevant WiFi connection.
