The collaboration combines WEX's advanced fleet payment and management platforms with Chargie's EV charging hardware, software, and service solutions, creating an ecosystem to simplify the transition to EVs.

With the partnership, Chargie says it will continue to design, install, and support Level 2 and Level 3 EV charging solutions for various fleet use cases across commercial and government sectors. The charging stations will be integrated with WEX's payment platform, enabling drivers to make secure, touchless payments with WEX charge cards and fleet operators to analyze reports and invoices seamlessly.

"Our integration with Chargie marks a significant expansion of our EV network and is a big win for fleet operators," said Jay Collins, SVP & GM, EV & mobility at WEX. "The addition of our payment processing technology by syncing transaction details and RFID numbers from their charging stations streamlines the EV charging experience and empowers organizations to make smarter decisions for their operations."

As the transportation sector shifts toward electric vehicles, businesses and government agencies increasingly explore mixed-energy and fully electric fleets to reduce emissions, optimize costs, and improve performance. In a recent study commissioned by WEX and performed by market research firm Frost & Sullivan, 80% of respondents indicated they intend that at least a quarter of their fleets will be comprised of EVs by 2030. Additionally, nearly two-thirds of fleet managers noted they have low-carbon goals that need to be met in the same timeframe.

"Fleet electrification is not a distant goal – the transition is already well underway, and we're seeing it across all industries," said Chargie CEO Zach Jennings. "We're proud to work with WEX to take the complexity out of the process for fleet operators. This partnership brings together reliable hardware, best-in-class software, streamlined payment processing, and 24/7 support so organizations can make the switch with confidence."
