Nayax joins ChargeUK to strengthen EV charging payments in the UK
Payments specialist joins industry body to engage in the UK’s EV charging ecosystem
HERZLIYA, Israel. February 25, 2026 — Nayax Ltd. (Nasdaq: NYAX; TASE: NYAX), a global commerce enablement, payments, and loyalty platform designed to help merchants scale their business, has joined ChargeUK, the UK’s national trade association representing the electric vehicle (EV) charging industry.
By joining ChargeUK, Nayax will be involved in industry discussions alongside charge point operators, infrastructure providers, policymakers, and technology partners shaping the future of EV charging in the UK.
The membership reflects Nayax’s intention to engage more closely with the wider EV ecosystem, particularly on the role of payments, accessibility, and operational standards as infrastructure continues to scale.
ChargeUK represents over 40 companies and supports the delivery of the UK’s net zero target by 2050. While UK greenhouse gas emissions have fallen significantly since 1990, the Climate Change Committee has warned that further progress is required, including removing friction for both drivers and operators as EV adoption grows.
As the EV charging network expands, payment accessibility and reliability are increasingly recognised as crucial to driver confidence and charger utilisation. Nayax brings experience from across unattended environments, drawing on its established leadership in UK vending, where its technology is deployed at scale. This experience helps ensure card-based payment journeys perform reliably across various charging locations and operator models.
Through its EV payments capabilities, Nayax works with charge point operators and site owners to support straightforward, regulation-ready payment journeys that align with evolving industry requirements and commercial realities – including for smaller operators entering or scaling within the market.
Vicky Read, Chief Executive Officer at ChargeUK, commented: “There is a whole ecosystem of businesses in the EV charging sector which are helping to drive the transition and ChargeUK represents the whole breadth. Nayax demonstrate that perfectly as a company looking to provide high quality payment experiences for customers and wider improvements in accessibility and operations. We are excited to welcome Nayax on board.”
Andy Knight, Energy Sales Director at Nayax, added: “Joining ChargeUK reflects our long-term commitment to the UK’s EV charging ecosystem. We believe EV charging should be a commercially viable and accessible opportunity for site owners, not an overly complex technical challenge. By contributing our payments expertise to the wider industry conversation, we’re looking to help make EV charging easier to deploy, easier to use, and more sustainable as adoption accelerates.”
