EVgo charging network starts customer rewards program


EVgo is one of the largest charging networks today with over 4,000 charging ports (500+ locations) that get their energy from renewable sources. To continue growing, EVgo is opening new sites as well as starting a customer loyalty/rewards program called (drum roll please) EVgp Rewards. The program rewards customers when they interface with the company, by charging (5 points per dollar) and when you interface with the EVgo website. After accumulating 2,000 points, you receive free charging equal to a five minute fast charge. Unless you're a social media wizard, iot might take a while for normal folks to achieve the reward, but I would imagine that it could happen faster than you might think. Plus every bit of "free" we can get now-a-days is important. Existing EVgp customers are automatically enrolled in the program. Cool and as EVgo grows it is the type of thing that might be very important down the line. Click on "read more" to view the release and a short intro video. On a side note, the video shows a Tesla charging up. Interesting.

Media Release:

EVgo Launches EVgo Rewards™ Program Nationwide for EV Drivers

EVgo becomes the first public EV charging network in the country to offer a rewards program for customers

EVgo Inc. (NASDAQ: EVGO), the nation’s largest public fast charging network for electric vehicles (EVs) and first powered by 100% renewable electricity, today announced the launch of EVgo Rewards™, a customer loyalty program providing EV drivers the opportunity to earn points towards free fast charging sessions when they charge at EVgo locations. The launch follows a successful pilot program with more than 4,000 customers, making EVgo the first nationwide public EV charging network to offer a rewards program for its expanding customer base.

“EVgo customers’ #1 suggestion for us is to create more EVgo stations. And once we build them, those very same customers using our chargers are helping to fuel our rapid growth and expansion across America – and we’re excited to reward that. EVgo Rewards says thank you to EV drivers for charging with EVgo, for promoting transportation electrification on social media, and for just celebrating another birthday as an EV driver,” said Cathy Zoi, CEO of EVgo. “EVgo customers are local heroes in addressing climate change in their own lives and we all should share in the rewards for that."

How EVgo Rewards Works

Starting today, existing EVgo customers will be enrolled into the program automatically and other EV drivers can enter EVgo Rewards by registering with EVgo. Members receive five points for every dollar they spend charging their car with EVgo, and have the opportunity to get extra points for liking and sharing EVgo’s social posts, by visiting the EVgo Rewards website, for being a member on their birthday, and other activities designed to surprise and delight EVgo drivers. When customers reach 2,000 points with EVgo Rewards, they’ll receive a free fast charging session, equivalent to $10 charging credit, with EVgo. Members can visit the EVgo Rewards page to check their balance and redeem their points.
