Voltric steps up a gear announcing a charging partnership with Paua

One of the UK’s fastest-growing electric vehicle (EV) car subscription companies Voltric, is partnering with EV charge card provider Paua, offering all drivers access to a hassle-free way to plug in and charge across the UK.

Voltric announces the partnership following a 12-month trial with current driver-subscribers who have been using PAUA’s single charging card and app platform to access the UK’s largest roaming network of over 20,000 charge point connectors across 20 different networks in one card.

All new Voltric EV drivers will now receive a Voltric charge card powered by Paua with their car and they will use the card to locate, access and pay for their EV charging on a pay-as-you-go basis.

Voltric is an all-inclusive EV subscription service enabling more people to drive an EV and reduce emissions without the complexities of car leases, and long-term contracts. Voltric wraps everything drivers need to get on the road for one monthly payment which includes insurance, maintenance, recovery, and servicing through its mobility-as-a-service offer. With no upfront cost or deposits or loan agreements, Voltric is reinventing the way we drive.

Commenting, Voltric CEO and founder, Julian Mensah said; “It’s great working alongside our friends at Paua – they are the rockstars of the fast-growing EV charging market. Our whole promise to drivers is to put more EVs on the road, protect our environment and simplify how we drive.”  

Niall Riddell, founder and CEO of Paua, said: “Voltric and Paua is a great partnership as together we can offer drivers everything, they need to drive electric” 

“We are committed to ensuring all electricity used with our network partners is 100% renewable and therefore assure zero emissions giving Voltric customers peace of mind and an easy way to access the UK’s biggest network of public charging points.”

South Wales-based Voltric and Essex-based Paua are alumni of Tech Nation’s Libra 1.0 and Net Zero 2.0, programmes for tech companies and leaders. Gerard Grech, Founding Chief Executive of Tech Nation commenting on the announcement said: “Both Voltric and Paua are great examples of the tech businesses we support through our start-up, growth and scale-up programmes. 

“The Tech Nation community shows that working together to innovate produces collaboration which leads to great partnerships such as this one. I wish both Julian and Niall well in this next chapter of growth.”
