Since 15th July 2025, Ohme chargers are no longer be compatible with Charge Anytime. We’ve recently updated the technology behind Charge Anytime. This is so we can keep making improvements and create new products that reward customers for driving EVs.

 

It's not been possible to integrate Ohme with this new technology. If you have an Ohme charger you’ll still be able to sign up to Charge Anytime by connecting with an eligible vehicle. We’re constantly looking to open up the eligibility to more EV models so if you don’t see your EV here, keep an eye on our page.


You can see all eligibility details in our Charge Anytime page here.

 

Hi @Chris78 

Short answer is that the Podpoint charger won't be compatible with Anytime. You'll need either an Indra or Ohme charger as detailed in the FAQs on this page.

You must have an eligible EV or Smart Charger, we’re constantly looking into ways to add more eligibility for Charge Anytime, so if your technology isn’t currently on the list keep an eye on our page for updates!

    Hey @Whipster2210,

     

    Hope you had a great Christmas! I’ve asked the question… although I’m not sure anyone from the team is in until after the New Year. 

     

    I’ll keep you posted with any responses I get 😊

    Thankyou Emmanuelle_OVO 

    Thanks to @Emmanuelle_OVO ive now been added to the pre launch Charge Anytime which means a 10p per kWh cost for my EV charging. Brilliant.

    The only downside is that the Charge Anytime Android App won’t connect to my car or my Audi App. It linked once and has recognised that it’s a Q4 and it but it constantly says “Car unplugged”. 
    my Audi App is working and shows when the car is charging. 
     

    Does anyone have any idea what I may be doing wrong?
    Suggestions appreciated. Thanks

      I think it must have as i didn’t see my Q4 on the list, but been told i’m good to go. Just waiting for the guys at Audi to make me a key user for the connect system which appeared to be the issue with my app. 

       

      Support from Tim & Emmanuelle has been superb on here and in PM’s, so thankyou.

        Yeah the Q4 wasn't on the list I've seen. Fingers crossed they will publish the new list
