Octopus Energy’s EV charging platform, Electroverse, has launched a new payments card for fleets in partnership with Visa, aimed at consolidating charging costs and on-road expenses into a single platform.
The “Business Payments Card” allows fleet drivers to pay not only for charging but also for tolls, meals, car washes and other travel-related costs. It is powered by Visa’s Fleet 2.0 platform, which expands beyond traditional fuel payments to incorporate EV charging, tolls, public transit and micromobility services.
“We’ve made charging simple for drivers – now we’re making the whole fleet experience just as easy for Britain’s six million fleet vehicles,” said Matt Davies, Director of Electroverse. “With Visa, we’re proud to launch one of the first Visa Fleet 2.0 cards, putting everything on one card and giving businesses the control they need to speed up their shift to cleaner transport.”
Electroverse said the card integrates into its management dashboard, combining fleet data including charging habits, driver behaviours, VAT costs, receipts and journey details in one interface. The card will be available in physical and digital formats, with virtual wallet options planned.
According to Electroverse, subscriptions cost £9.50 ($12) per driver per month excluding VAT, with new businesses offered two months free. The same price applies for a combined “Payments + Public Charging” version that also supports public charging transactions.
“Fleet operators are looking for smarter ways to manage the shift to electric, and Visa Fleet 2.0 makes that transition simpler and more efficient,” said Richard Campion, Head of Fleet & Mobility at Visa Europe. “With Electroverse, we’re enabling UK businesses to consolidate on-the-road spending, gain real-time visibility and maintain the security and control they expect from Visa – all while powering a cleaner future for transport.”
