Yes, it's free to sign up and add your EV chargepoint to the joosup system.

A host is an individual who rents out their home car charger to an electric vehicle owner (EVO) to park and charge their car for an agreed period and fee.

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.

Simply download the joosup app, add your charger and start earning an income from bookings!

No doubt, your driveway charging sits unused for most of the week. Turn that charger into a passive income generator by taking bookings through joosup. It couldn't be easier.

Anyone who owns or has direct access to their own electric car charger can benefit from being a host. Whether you're a residence or business, you can make an income from your charger by making it available to other joosup users.

EVO is an abbreviation for electric vehicle owner. In simple terms, a driver of an electric car who is part of the evolution towards electrified roads.

Simply download the joosup app, add your vehicle, search for a host near your desired location and make a booking!

Just imagine... you're driving a long distance and your EV needs to be recharged to get you home later that day. Your journey en route has very limited access to public chargers, so what do you do?

By using joosup, you can book a slot to park and charge your car close to your destination, ensuring your car is not only securely parked but topped up for the journey home. What's not to like?

Potentially every electric vehicle owner on our roads could benefit from using joosup to charge their car.

Just imagine how much choice, flexibility and control this gives every motorist if they can book their parking and charging in advance of reaching their destination? It's a game changer.

Yes of course, that's the entire concept of joosup! As well as destination charging using other joosup host locations, you can also host others to charge on your driveway and earn an income. It's a win-win for all.

As the sale of electric vehicles increases each year, the signs are the public infrastructure will struggle to keep up.

Public chargers will always be needed but they're far from perfect. If you're fortunate enough to find one that's operable or available, they can be expensive to use, overly complicated and the time allowed is limited otherwise you could be fined. This also means interruptions to your journeys. This can make EV ownership unattractive, unnecessarily stressful and inconvenient.

Destination charging makes far more sense. Instead of stopping to top up your car battery en route, book your parking and charging in advance with joosup.

This way, you get to drive from point A to B without stopping, charge your car whilst it's parked and then return to your car with sufficient charge to get you home. That's what we call stress-free driving!

As we swiftly move towards driving electric vehicles, charging at home will become commonplace. But for the millions of us living in apartments, flats and terraced homes without driveways, this is not an option.

Our app will enable those individuals to charge their EV's on driveways owned by other joosup members in a quick and cost-effective way, making the switch the electric far less daunting.

Joosup is exclusively for EV owners, so you’re not competing with internal combustion engine (ICE) drivers when searching for charging locations. The app lets you earn income by sharing your chargers and book charging sessions for your own EV journeys. Whether you’re new to EVs or a seasoned owner, Joosup offers a simple and flexible solution for parking and charging.

Right now, joosup is only available for users based in the UK and Republic of Ireland. But that's not the end of our ambitions.

As we develop the model and grow our user base, we fully intend to expand into other markets that have the same needs and demands as us. So watch this space as they say!

Of course you can. You can add as many EV chargers to your joosup account as you like.

No, we do not encourage users to list or use a 3 pin "granny" charger on safety grounds.

Domestic power sockets are not specifically designed for charging EV's, so in some circumstances where a fault is present, using this type of socket could lead to overheating, a fire or injury. Therefore, we do not allow slow charging via traditional 3 pin sockets or extension leads.

If you want to receive payments from other Joosup users to charge their vehicles using your home charger, you will need to hook up your PayPal account. This ensures you receive payments swiftly and directly, without delay. Connecting your PayPal account does not involve any form of transaction taking place. This is simply an onboarding process. You will not be charged any fees to onboard whatsoever.

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.

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.

No, Joosup hosts keep 100% of the earnings from their bookings, so hosts can maximise their income from offering electrified parking. This allows hosts to price their chargers more competitively, which means drivers benefit from lower fees compared to other platforms and public charge-point operators.

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.

Subscriptions are entirely optional and are priced at £1.49 per month, or £14.99 per year. You have the option to subscribe at the end of the trial period but this is not compulsory.

Joosup operates on an 'electrified parking' model, where hosts charge an hourly rate for parking with access to a charger. While our system doesn’t measure the exact electricity used, this approach combines parking and charging at a significantly lower cost compared to public charge points.

Joosup focuses on providing bookable, affordable, and reliable EV charging options by time rather than electricity usage. This simplifies the experience for EV drivers and allows you to park and charge at a fraction of the cost of public alternatives.

Joosup combines parking and EV charging in one convenient booking. Instead of paying separately for parking and charging, our hosts charge an hourly rate for both services together, often at a much lower cost than public charge-point operators (CPO's)

Joosup offers a more cost-effective and convenient alternative. Public pay-and-display car parks often charge separate fees for parking and EV charging, which can exceed £8.00 per hour. In contrast, Joosup hosts typically charge around £3.00 per hour for parking and charging combined.

With Joosup, you can pre-book your spot, ensuring availability and a seamless experience. This makes it ideal for EV drivers looking for affordable, reliable charging options in areas where public infrastructure may be limited or expensive.
