What is waEV-smart?

waEV-smart is a free app that turns your home EV charging into a small monthly income. Instead of you having to remember to set timers and chase cheap rates, waEV-smart does it for you - automatically charging your car when electricity is cheapest and the grid needs the help most. You don't change your routine or your supplier. You just plug in when you get home and wake up to a charged car. We pay you for the bits in between.

Your earnings build up in your waEV-smart account. Withdraw to your bank, or use them however you like.

Commonly asked questions

Where can I download the waEV-smart app?

The waEV-smart app is available on both the Apple App Store and Google Play Store.

How do I contact waEV-charge support?

Support options are available directly within the waEV-smart app menu, including FAQs, Live Chat and additional support resources.

What is a Single Rate tariff?

A Single Rate tariff means your electricity costs the same price all day and night.

What is the Charger Lock function?

The Charger Lock function is coming soon. Once available, charging outside of your configured off-peak tariff window will be restricted unless Boost mode is manually activated.

What should I select if I’m on a Smart tariff?

If your energy provider requires full control of charging sessions, we currently recommend using the provider’s native smart charging functionality rather than waEV-smart scheduling.
