My charging card no longer works. What should I do?
Important! Are you a business customer?
Please consult the FAQ: “My professional Q8 electric charging card no longer works. What should I do?”
If you are a private customer and your charging card is not working, this may have several causes. Please follow the steps below in order.
Step 1: Check whether there is an issue with the charging station
Sometimes the problem is not related to your charging card, but to the charging station.
Check whether the charging station has power
Check whether the screen or indicators are active
If possible, try another charging station
Does the charging station appear to have a technical issue (no power, no connection)?
→ Call the phone number displayed on the charging station.
You will be directly connected to the operator of that charging station.
Step 2: Try mobile charging via the Q8 app
If the charging station appears to be working properly, try starting the charging session via the Q8 app.
Please note: mobile charging is not available at all charging stations, but it may help in some cases when the card is not being read.
Step 3: Check whether the charging card is physically damaged (exceptional)
In rare cases, a charging card may be damaged.
For example:
Visible damage
Severe bending
Exposure to strong magnetic fields
Do you believe the card is defective?
Request a new card via the Q8 app.
