BMW Charging and MINI Charging have rolled out a new fleet-focused charging service in partnership with Digital Charging Solutions (DCS), aiming to make it easier for businesses to manage, monitor and reimburse electric vehicle charging.
The system links each driver’s charging account to a central company account, allowing every charging session to be automatically billed back to the business. According to BMW, the idea is to give fleet drivers the same tariffs, features and app experience as private users, while giving fleet managers a single consolidated invoice and a central dashboard covering up to 50 vehicles.
Designed for small and medium-sized fleets
The service is aimed at companies running up to 50 EVs and is intended to cut the administrative work that typically comes with reimbursing drivers for home, workplace or public charging. The firm says there are no setup costs, and the platform brings automatic reimbursement as standard.
To get started, companies register via Charge Now, set up a central account, and then link each driver’s BMW Charging or MINI Charging contract to it. Once connected, charging sessions are paid directly by the company with no need for drivers to make up-front payments or submit claims.
Integrated with existing apps
The service works through the My BMW or MINI app and supports features already available to private customers, including Plug & Charge at compatible stations. BMW says the interface gives businesses a real-time view of charging activity across brands and markets.
Available across Europe
The fleet solution first launched in August across eleven European markets, including the UK, Germany, France and Spain. An additional nine countries - including Sweden, Norway, Poland and Finland - were added in September.
The company positions the tool as a way to bring cost transparency to small EV fleets and streamline charging operations as more businesses transition to electric vehicles.
