Cariqa

Cariqa is a direct payment infrastructure company for EV charging. It enables charge point operators and driver platforms to transact directly, with operators retaining commercial control of pricing.

eMSPs typically act as resellers between charge point operators and drivers, but Cariqa sits beneath the charging value chain as payment infrastructure, letting operators bypass the reseller layer. On the demand side it works with navigation apps, OEMs, routing platforms, fleet software, and mobility products. Drivers pay the operator-set price directly, with no reseller markup added.
