EV-C Advantages
Switchio's platform for cEMV acceptance is your fast track to compliance with the Alternative Fuel Infrastructure Regulation (AFIR). Beginning in 2024, CPOs in the EU must offer ad hoc charging and easy open-loop payment options.
Our centralized open-loop platform gives charge point users the unmatched convenience of fast bank card payments. Operators enjoy increased efficiency thanks to having all cashless payments pooled within a single secure system that supports all major credit cards.
Switchio covers all of your payment processing needs, including management of your terminal network and software, as well as transaction processing and central reporting. Our system also provides support for transaction clearance and settlement.
With Switchio, you can lower operating costs by using a unified POS device network, easily switching between acquirers, and optimizing transaction routing. One payment terminal can serve up to 10 charging points.
In addition to AFIR compliance, our interoperable technical framework ensures secure EMV payment processing per PCI DSS standards with guaranteed 24/7 availability.
