Addressing these payment issues is essential to ensure EV charging is convenient and seamless, particularly as consumer preferences lean towards using credit or debit cards. A <a href="https://b2b.mastercard.com/media/mbxmeadc/ev-charging-payments.pdf">Mastercard Consumer Research</a> study revealed that 65% of consumers prefer card-based payments for recharging, highlighting the importance of unattended payment systems at charging stations.</p> <p>By tackling these payment-related obstacles, the industry can not only enhance the overall EV driving experience but also accelerate EV adoption. This session will provide attendees with valuable insights into the current payment landscape, challenges, and solutions for improving payment processes at EV charging stations.</p> <p><strong>Key Takeaways:</strong></p> <ul> <li>An overview of the payment landscape and emerging trends in EV charging</li> <li>Challenges with payment systems, including network connectivity, integration, and installation of card readers</li> <li>Addressing customer confusion caused by multiple payment methods</li> <li>Security, regulatory, and environmental requirements for card-based payments</li> <li>The benefits of unattended payment systems and how they enhance the user experience</li> <li>Strategies for expanding payment acceptance across EV charging stations nationwide</li> </ul> <hr><div style="padding-top:12px;text-align:center;"><a href="2025/attend/pass-types-and-pricing-information" class="button-blue" style="text-align:center; font-size:20px;">Check out our early bird ticket prices!</a></div> </div> </div> </section>  <footer id="footer" style="background-color: #285972; background-size: 100% 100%; color: #ffffff; border-top: 0; padding-bottom: 30px; margin-top: 0"> <div class="container"> <div class="row" style="align-items:top;"> <div class="column column-33" style="text-align: center; padding-top: 36px;"> <img src="/assets/static_files/images/logos/EVCS Productions logo white.png" alt="EV Charging Summit Blog logo" style="width: 120px; height: auto; margin-bottom: 10px"><br> <a href="https://twitter.com/EVCSummit"><i style="color:#fff;" class="fab fa-x-twitter" aria-hidden="true"></i></a>   <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/ev-charging-summit/"><i style="color:#fff;" class="fab fa-linkedin" aria-hidden="true"></i></a>   <a href="/blog/">BLOG</a> </div> <div class="column column-33" style="padding:36px 12px 6px 12px; font-size: 15px; font-weight: 300; line-height: 115%; position: relative; "> <h4 style="margin: 0 0 12px 0; font-size: 1.2rem;">Sign up to receive event updates and exclusive content!</h4>  <script charset="utf-8" type="text/javascript" src="//js.hsforms.net/forms/v2.js"></script> <script> hbspt.forms.create({ portalId: "3219216", formId: "612fb615-7f7d-49d6-b56a-302e66b94c56", css: "" }); </script> </div> <div class="column column-33" style="padding: 36px 2px 2px 12px; font-size: 15px; font-weight: 300; line-height: 130%;"> <h4 style="margin: 0 0 12px 0; font-size: 1.2rem;">Contact Us</h4> EVCS Productions<br>1501 India St. Suite 103-60<br>San Diego, CA 92101<br>Phone: 888-409-4418<br><a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#9df4f3fbf2ddf8ebfef5fceffaf4f3faeee8f0f0f4e9b3fef2f0"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="462f282029062330252e2734212f282135332b2b2f326825292b">[email protected]</span></a> </div> </div> </div> <div style="font-size: 0.9rem; max-width: 1024px; margin: 24px auto 0 auto;"><p style="text-align: center;"><strong><a href="2025/spam-solication-warning">SPAM SOLICITATION WARNING</a></strong></p></div> </footer> <div style="padding:12px; background-color:#fff; text-align: center; font-size: 15px;">漏 testing EVCS Productions Inc. | <a href="2025/terms-and-conditions-of-attendance-and-participation">Terms and Conditions</a> | <a href="2025/your-privacy-is-important-to-us">Privacy Policy</a> </div> <script data-cfasync="false" src="/cdn-cgi/scripts/5c5dd728/cloudflare-static/email-decode.min.js"></script><script type="text/javascript" src="https://a.remarketstats.com/px/smart/?c=25b6628fb526c0a&seg=evchargingsummit"></script>  <script type="text/javascript"> jQuery(document).ready(function ($) { var dcdomains = ['evchargingsummit.com', 'unityeventsolutions.com']; var params = window.location.search.replace(/ +/g, '%20'); if (params.length > 0 && params[0] == '?') params = params.substring(1, params.length); var finalList = ''; if (params.length > 0) { var splitList = params.split('&'); var append = new Array(); for (var idx = 0; idx < splitList.length; idx++) { if (splitList[idx].indexOf('utm_') == 0) append.push(splitList[idx]); } finalList = append.join('&'); } if (finalList.length > 0) { var button = $('a[href]').each(function (i) { for (var idx = 0; idx < dcdomains.length; idx++) { var domain = dcdomains[idx]; var re = new RegExp('^http[s]?://[a-zA-Z.]{0,15}' + domain + '.*$'); if (this.href.indexOf('#') < 0) { if (re.test(this.href)) { if (this.href.indexOf('?') < 0) this.href = this.href + '?' + finalList; else this.href = this.href + '&' + finalList; } } } }); } }); </script>  </body> </html>
