Driving business-ready EV charging: CCV from Fiserv and Lade.ZEIT partner up
The expansion of electric mobility is accelerating across the DACH region. As more businesses invest in charging infrastructure, expectations are rising not only for reliable charging, but also for simple, secure, and intuitive payment experiences.
To meet these demands, CCV from Fiserv and Lade.ZEIT have entered a strategic partnership to deliver a seamless, end-to-end solution for EV charging and payments.
A strong partnership for integrated EV charging solutions
This collaboration brings together two complementary areas of expertise. Lade.ZEIT, an independent planning office for charging infrastructure, designs, implements, and operates tailored charging solutions. CCV from Fiserv complements this with proven payment technology, enabling reliable and future-proof payment experiences directly at the charging point.
At the core of the solution is the CCV IM30 terminal combined with the CCV Charge App – an intuitive and customisable payment application designed specifically for EV charging environments.
Together, they enable operators to offer seamless card payments alongside existing charging services.
Lade.ZEIT: planning EV infrastructure with a long-term vision
Based in Vlotho, Germany, Lade.ZEIT acts as a system architect for charging infrastructure. As a manufacturer-independent partner, the company supports businesses and property owners throughout the entire lifecycle of their charging projects, ensuring economical feasibility from the start. From the first idea, through concept development to implementation and ongoing operation.
Lade.ZEIT’s approach is built around one goal: creating a fully functional, future-proof system that works not only today, but also in the years to come.
