Charging

How do I stop charging?

You can stop at any time by tapping “End Charging” in the mobile app or from your vehicle's charging settings. When the energy transfer stops, the connector may stay locked or be released depending on your vehicle's make and model. If it stays locked, you can unlock it from the vehicle or via your vehicle's mobile app.

How do I start charging?

When you arrive at the station, plug the cable into your vehicle, open the Epsis mobile app and scan the QR code on the charger. Charging starts within seconds. If the QR code can't be read, you can also start by entering the manual code shown on the charger into the app. If you run into any problem, the Epsis Call Center will support you right away.

Why does the charging speed sometimes vary?

Charging speed depends not only on the charger's power but also on your battery's state of charge (SoC), the battery temperature and the number of other vehicles charging at the same time. At Epsis, we use smart power management systems to deliver the power rated on the charger to your vehicle as efficiently as possible.

What is the difference between AC and DC charging?

In AC (Alternating Current) charging, the energy from the grid is converted by the vehicle's own onboard charger into the direct current that the battery can use. In DC (Direct Current) charging, this conversion takes place in the charging station and the energy is transferred directly to the vehicle's battery. This is why DC charging usually offers charging at higher power and in a shorter time, while AC charging is preferred for longer charging at lower power.

Do I need to bring my own cable for AC charging?

At AC charging stations, cable use may vary by station type. Some stations provide a charging cable attached to the station, while at others users may need to use their own charging cable. We therefore recommend keeping a charging cable compatible with your vehicle with you when you use AC charging.

I can't scan the QR code. What should I do?

Sunlight or different weather conditions may occasionally make the QR code difficult to read. In that case, you can start your charging session by copying the station code.

Payment and Pricing

How do payments work?

Simply add your bank or credit card to the Epsis mobile app once. Each time you add a new card, a 1 TL pre-authorization is taken through your bank to verify it. When charging ends, only the amount for the energy you consumed is charged to your card automatically.

What happens if I stay at the station after charging is complete?

So that all our users can use our stations efficiently, we ask you to move your vehicle within a certain time (according to the waiting-fee tariff) after charging reaches 100%. If the space continues to be occupied, a “waiting fee” is applied to protect other drivers' rights.

Where can I see the current charging tariffs?

You can find the current charging tariffs in the Tariffs section of our website or on the detail page of the relevant station in the Epsis mobile app.

I can't unplug the charging cable from my vehicle. What should I do?

First, make sure that your vehicle is unlocked and that you have ended the charging session in the Epsis mobile app. If the charging cable you are using is your own, unplug it from the charging station first and then from your vehicle.

If you are using the charging station's own cable and still cannot unplug it after following the steps above, you can call our 24/7 call center for immediate support.

What should I do if charging stops by itself?

Charging may stop automatically because of safety conditions such as a warning from the vehicle or overcurrent detected on the station side. This is a safety mechanism designed to protect the vehicle and the charging station.

If your charging session stops unexpectedly, you can check the connections and try to restart it. If the problem persists, you can get support from our 24/7 call center.
