- bp pulse joined ChargeHub's Passport Hub, connecting more than 850 charging points at over 95 US locations to ChargeHub and participating charging services and automakers.
- ChargeHub users can pull up a bp pulse location, select a port and start charging from an existing account, with the charging cost and wallet balance displayed in the app; drivers need funds in their ChargeHub wallet to begin.
- Passport Hub serves as the intermediary between charging networks and the services drivers use, exchanging session information and settling payments so an operator can reach multiple services through a single integration.
- ChargeHub shows real-time charger availability and lets drivers filter by connector type, and its bp pulse guide says most of the network's chargers use CCS, with a growing share offering NACS.
- bp pulse is also expanding physically, with recent openings of 12 charging bays at a TravelCenters of America location in Grand Bay, Alabama, and 22 bays near Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport.
- ChargeHub Plus waives activation fees, and ChargeHub's guide cautions that using an existing account doesn't necessarily mean paying the same total as another payment method.
Why it matters: For drivers already on ChargeHub or a participating service, 850+ bp pulse points at more than 95 US locations become usable without another app download. The pricing caveat matters: ChargeHub Plus waives activation fees, so an existing account doesn't automatically deliver the same total cost as another payment method.
