The ultimate wish of every Charge Point Operator (CPO) is to maximize the utilization of their charging stations. Simply put, the goal is to have more people using your charging stations.
To attract more EV drivers, it’s essential to ensure that your services are also available via multiple platforms that are strongly present in your region. There are many companies successfully providing different services via their applications to users and the powerful ones are starting to enhance their core & strong offerings with new extended & complementary services via one Super app.
One solution that effectively addresses this is the OCEAN integration with EasyPark. Here’s why:
- EasyPark is the nr.1 parking app in Europe when it comes to coverage already known and used by millions of people across Europe, so users are familiar with its functionality
- Integrating your charging stations with a well-known app like EasyPark is bound to increase the utilization of your stations and enable EV drivers utilizing one app to pay for parking and EV charging.
It's a win-win situation: you aim to attract more EV drivers, and we provide you with the tools to achieve this goal.
After successfully linking Ocean CPO with EasyPark EMSP, the EV driver can simply start charging directly via the EasyPark app. This functions as standard EMSP-CPO roaming.

- EasyPark sends a start transaction request to Ocean, and Ocean initiates the charging session.
- Once the session is completed, charging data record (CDR) is sent to EasyPark, which handles the billing and charges the EV driver.
-
