Charging can still be challenging for the EV driver.
Simon Vogt, Co-Founder and CSO &Charge
The Founder

Simon Vogt (https://www.linkedin.com/in/simon-vogt-a9a07931/), Co-Founder and Chief Sales Officer of Frankfurt-based startup &Charge is our guest today. They just raised seed funding to help online shoppers offset their climate impact and reward them with points e.g., for charging electric cars or use e-scooters.

Simon has collected already some experience in mobility. He worked in emobility projects of BMW, been with Porsche Consulting and finally been the coordinator for e-services for Porsche’s model Taycan.

Charging is more than refueling. You have time.
Simon Vogt, Co-Founder and CSO &Charge
The Startup

The founding team realized that charging is different from refueling, so the team behind &Charge (https://and-charge.com/#/) realized that the charging EV owner has time on his or her hands. So, &Charge started connecting charging with ecommerce, so an online buyer gets rewards points for recharging their EV or using an e-scooter or similar stuff. Currently they are covering 95% of the German ecommerce market with partnerships.

We help our customers to decrease the price of re-charging and the total costs of ownership.
Simon Vogt, Co-Founder and CSO &Charge
Venture Capital Funding

They just raised a seven-digit seed round (https://buff.ly/3oW9C1m) but will surely look soon at a Series A funding round. Amongst their investors are the corporate venture capital arm of energy company Helen, called Helen Ventures and Porsche Ventures.

I could be considered a pioneer or dinosaur of emobility, I stared with it 10 years ago.
Simon Vogt, Co-Founder and CSO &Charge
