MoreWhy Use an RFID Card for EV Charging Stations?
RFID cards offer a hassle-free way to activate public or private EV chargers—no smartphones, apps, or logins needed. Here’s how they solve common charging frustrations:
🔋 Key Benefits
- Instant Access: Tap your card to start charging—works even with poor cell service
- Enhanced Security: Unique encrypted IDs prevent unauthorized use
- Simplified Billing: Automatically links to your account (home/commercial)
- Reliability: No dead batteries or app updates—works 24/7
⚙️ How It Works
- Card Enrollment:
- Register the card with your charging provider (e.g., ChargePoint, home systems)
- Link it to your payment/account—like a contactless credit card
- Tap to Charge:
- Hold the card near the charger’s USB RFID reader (1–2 inches)
- A beep/green light confirms activation
- Session Tracking:
- Usage logs to your account for billing/reports
No more fumbling with apps in rain or cold!
🚗 Setup Guide
- Get a Compatible Card:
- Most chargers support ISO 14443A cards (ask your provider)
- Cykeo’s universal RFID cards work with 90% of chargers
- Registration:
- Home Chargers: Use the station’s app to “add RFID card”
- Public Networks: Request a card via provider account
- Test & Troubleshoot:
- No response? Ensure the card is registered and undamaged
- Reader error? Wipe debris off the charger’s scanner
- Still stuck? Re-pair the card via your account dashboard
⚠️ Limitations to Know
- Not universal: Some networks (e.g., Tesla Superchargers) use proprietary systems
- Theft risk: Report lost cards immediately to suspend access
- Backup plan: Always keep a mobile app as a secondary option
✅ Why Choose RFID Over Apps?
- Speed: 3-second tap vs. 30+ seconds unlocking phones
- Accessibility: Ideal for shared fleets, visitors, or elderly users
- Durability: Plastic cards withstand heat/rain better than phones
💡 Pro Tip: Stick a Cykeo RFID card in your glove compartment as a permanent backup—no more “forgotten wallet” panic.
