Ohme and PayPal Team Up to Provide Chargers Paid in Three Installments
Ohme is the UK’s largest home EV charging company and claims to be the fastest growing in Europe, but it’s not resting there as they have teamed up with PayPal to enable customers to pay for their charger in instalments with PayPal Pay in 3 (subject to status and approval).
With EV sales of new and used EVs growing in the UK, Ohme has stated that it’s “committed to ensuring that no driver is left behind in the e-mobility transition”.
The collaboration offers chargers purchased directly from Ohme to make use of PayPal’s flexible options including Pay in 3, which allows customers make interest-free payments for an Ohme ePod or Home Pro charger over two months following an initial installment.
Ohme CEO David Watson said “It’s great to be able to offer buyers an additional route to buying an Ohme charger, by spreading the cost with PayPal. With petrol prices being so high, there’s never been a better time to drive an EV and PayPal’s Pay in 3 option will help more drivers to get faster access to cheaper and cleaner home charging.”
“Many drivers are choosing to switch to an electric vehicle, but for some the upfront cost of getting set up at home can feel like a sticking point. That’s exactly where flexible payment options can make a difference,” said Tamer El-Emary, General Manager for PayPal UK. “By partnering with Ohme, we’re helping to remove a friction point between buying an EV and actually benefiting from the budget-friendly running costs that come with home charging. We hope that offering our flexible payment options will help Ohme to continue to grow.”
