We are Crowdfunding
Bookmycharge will soon be kicking off a crowdfunding campaign to enable us to build the future of the business. We’re excited to invite you to be part of that next stage of our journey.
We are now opening pre-registration to get an indication of how we can enhance our upcoming campaign. When the campaign opens, you will be able to help us raise capital in exchange for shares in Bookmycharge Ltd.
If you might be interested in participating, please enter your email address along with a non-committal indication of the level of support you are considering giving us, and we will keep you updated on the progress of our campaign.
By pre-registering, you will also be one of the first to know when the campaign goes live and you are not committed to anything.
What is Bookmycharge?
Bookmycharge was founded by EV owners looking for a way to improve their charging experience on a journey, at a destination, or even near home.
There will always be many more private chargepoints than public.
We thought that if we could create a platform to make just a small proportion of those private chargepoints available to everyone it could quickly become a major part of the national charging infrastructure and help everybody.
What's more, we reasoned that if we could make chargepoints bookable it would improve the experience even more by offering a guaranteed charge wherever you go...
Remove journey stress & uncertainty
• Already 800,000 plug-in vehicles in the UK
• Currently only 30,000 public chargepoints
• Predicted 10M Electric Vehicles by 2030
• Lack of coverage in rural & remote areas
• EV owners with no off-street parking need guaranteed access to local chargepoints
For EV drivers, Bookmycharge will become as useful as Airbnb or Booking.com, becoming the go-to service for anyone planning an EV journey or UK staycation
Why are we raising money?
• National marketing to increase awareness
• Acquire more subscribers
• Invest in our technology
• Extend our platform and our offering
• Build the team
Progress and the future...
Bookmycharge has already signed up more than 2000 EV drivers and more than 1000 chargepoints have registered on the platform, all around the UK.
So far we've been funded by the founders and a few 'family and friends', so the forthcoming crowdfund is the first time we have looked further for investment.
In this next phase we're looking to have tens of thousands of users and thousands of listed, bookable chargepoints everywhere they're needed, in step with the massive growth of EV numbers.
We particularly want to support those areas of the country left behind by the public charging network and to help drivers who can never charge at their own home.
Our background
We started Bookmycharge soon after we got our first EV, a BMW i3 which we still have and still love driving.
We'll never buy another car that isn't electric!
We've run a variety of businesses over the years and have backgrounds in motoring journalism and PR among various other sectors.
The whole business has a strong environmental and sustainability ethos. For example, we actively support Heal Rewilding and their simple plan to raise money, buy land and rewild it...
