Owning an EV shouldn’t mean the end of distance driving.
Using privately owned off-street chargers, we’ll get you motoring.
Whether or not you own a home EV charger, there’s times when public rapid chargers aren’t available to allow EV owners (EVO’s) to make longer journeys for business or pleasure. At Joosup, we're on a mission to raise the B-A-R by providing bookable, affordable and reliable EV charging.

How It Works
Joining is Simple.
From one account, add single or multiple chargers and start taking bookings in minutes, whilst taking advantage of using other member’s charge points for your own journeys.
It’s the perfect mutually beneficial relationship. By community charging with fellow EV owners, you make an income from your own charger, plus you travel with greater confidence knowing there’s a charger waiting for you along the way.
Step 1: Install the app
Go to the App Store or Google Play and search "joosup" to find our app. Then download and install the app as instructed on screen.
Step 2: Add your charger
Run the app to complete initial set up. Add your personal profile, car info and any chargers you wish to add to the searchable map.
Step 3: Go live!
Your EV charger is now live and searchable on our map by other joosup members. So just sit back and wait for the bookings to come in.
Step 4: Start earning
Once you receive booking requests in the app, simply approve the date and time, then start earning an income from your charger.
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, it's free to sign up and add your EV chargepoint to the joosup system.
To become an EV charger host, you'll need to own or have access to the property and charger where your listing is located. If your property and charger is rented, you must seek permission from the landlord or owner.
You cannot list chargers located on public spaces or managed by local authorities.
If access to your property and EV charger requires a code, permit, fob, or key, that is acceptable however, you will need to make EVO's aware by adding details to your listing.
Income from renting your driveway whilst recharging member's EV's may qualify for the UK government's property trading income allowance, which allows up to £1,000 tax free earnings per year. Speak to your accountant or tax professional to clarify your position.
How much you charge is down to your own discretion. But it is recommended that you list your charger at a competitive fee that is comparatively cheaper than the more common public CPO's (charge point operators). To reach a desired figure, try using our Host Charger Price Calculator. This useful feature will help you quickly calculate the base cost of your electricity supply and suggest a suitable price that includes a fair markup, whilst ensuring you make a bit of profit.
In our opinion, the absolute maximum fee you should be aiming to charge is no more than £3.00 per hour - the equivalent of £0.40 per kWh. Price your charger higher and you will likely struggle to get any bookings.
It's entirely up to you. Some members prefer to be present whilst EVO's charge their vehicles, whilst others are happy to take a contactless approach. Using joosup can be hands-on or as hassle-free as you like.
Absolutely! You can set what days of the week and what times you want your charger to be available to other members, meaning you don't have to worry about unexpected guests or bookings at inconvenient times.
Of course you can. You can add as many EV chargers to your joosup account as you like.
About Joosup
Joosup is a community charging and EV charger sharing app designed exclusively for electric vehicle owners who want the freedom to travel the length and breadth of the country in the confidence they can park and charge their car virtually anywhere.
Unlike other apps where you could compete for electrified parking spaces with petrol and diesel drivers, our app is exclusively designed for use by EV owners only.
We’re passionate about making our villages, towns and cities cleaner with emission-free vehicles. Yet many UK motorists are hesitant to make the switch to EV, simply because the infrastructure isn’t ready.
With close to 400,000 privately owned off-street charge-points already in existence and growing, we can bridge the gap to an all electric transport network by sharing our charge points with other likeminded EV drivers, all whilst making some extra cash.
So if you’re ready to join our EVOlution, download the joosup app, register your charger and start earning today. Or start taking advantage of existing chargers and make the switch to an EV.
