Stop paying for your drivers’ charging on non-work vehicles. Learn how Rightcharge uses data integration and AI to automate verification and eliminate fraud.
As electric vehicle (EV) ownership rises, fleet managers face a new and potentially costly challenge. It’s no longer just about managing costs and reimbursing drivers for charging, but making sure that the charging reimbursements are actually for work vehicles. Without verifying charging data, it is far too easy for a driver to plug in a family member’s or even a neighbour's vehicle, and the company unknowingly pays.
For a fleet of any size, accidentally reimbursing charge sessions on personal vehicles can lead to thousands of pounds of lost costs. Rightcharge solves this by moving away from simply consolidating charging payments to verifying them.
Why standard fleet platforms fall short
Most fleet charging payment platforms were designed to pull together charging costs, not to verify them. Whether a vehicle is plugged in at home or a charge card is tapped on the public network, platforms record the sessions as a business charge, without asking what vehicle is plugged in. Even when platforms attempt fraud prevention, it is often a manual process that relies on drivers toggling a ‘work vs private’ switch in an app. A feature which is prone to error. This lack of automated data verification creates a process where fraud, intentional or otherwise, simply passes through.
How Rightcharge automates fraud prevention
Automated fraud prevention for EV charging payment requires data links to the charger and vehicle. You cannot stop personal charging unless the platform you use can ‘talk’ to the vehicle, the charger and the driver account.
Rightcharge was built with this in mind:
- Automatic vehicle verification: Every charge session is cross-referenced against the registered work vehicle on the driver's account. Employers only pay for the energy that goes into the right work vehicle, not a family car or a neighbour's vehicle.
- AI behaviour monitoring: The platform flags anomalies that humans might miss, such as sessions at unexpected locations or sudden spikes in energy consumption.
All of the above is done through a secure and encrypted process for peace of mind for fleets and their drivers.
Rightcharge is the only platform providing EV fleet charging payments with built-in fraud prevention. We make sure that your charging budget is spent on your fleet and nothing else. As of the 12th March 2026.
