At Wevo Energy, we’re excited to announce our latest integration with Nayax payment terminals, leveraging the power of OCPI 2.2.1 to revolutionize EV charging payment solutions. While many in the industry associate OCPI primarily with EV roaming, its capabilities extend far beyond, offering a robust framework for seamless payment terminal integration.
The Power of OCPI 2.2.1 in EV Charging Payments
OCPI 2.2.1 brings a new level of standardization and efficiency to EV charger payment systems. By utilizing this protocol, we’ve created a flexible, future-proof solution that benefits charge point operators (CPOs) and EV drivers.
Key Benefits of OCPI 2.2.1 for Payment Integration:
- Streamlined Communication: OCPI facilitates smooth data exchange between charging stations, payment terminals, and management systems
- Enhanced Interoperability: The standardized protocol ensures compatibility across various hardware and software platforms
- Real-time Updates: CPOs can easily update tariffs and manage transactions in real-time
- Simplified Compliance: OCPI 2.2.1 helps meet evolving regulatory requirements, including those set by the EU, UK and California
EV Charger with Payment Terminal: Flexible Implementation
Our OCPI 2.2.1-based solution supports two key implementation modes, catering to diverse charging scenarios:
One-on-One Mode
In this setup, a payment terminal is added to each EV charger. This configuration is ideal for:
- High-power DC charging stations
- Locations requiring quick, direct transactions
- Scenarios where individual charger control is preferred
Kiosk Mode
Our kiosk mode allows a single payment terminal to manage multiple charging points, offering:
- Cost-effective solution for large charging hubs
- Centralized payment processing for up to 99 chargers
- Simplified user interface for initiating and paying for charging sessions
Both modes leverage OCPI 2.2.1 to ensure seamless communication between the charger, payment terminal, and our Wevo Energy platform.
