EV Chargers in hospitality services

Today's travelers expect more than a comfortable room and free Wi-Fi.

Increasingly, they also expect access to EV charging.

As electric vehicle adoption accelerates across Europe and worldwide, hotels, guest houses and hospitality venues that offer EV charging gain a significant competitive advantage.

With Killswitch, you can make EV charging available to guests in minutes — with or without payments — and manage everything automatically from a simple online dashboard.

Why Hotels Need EV Charging

The number of electric vehicles on the road is growing every year.

For many EV drivers, charging availability has become a deciding factor when choosing:

  • Hotels
  • Guest houses
  • Resorts
  • Retreat centers
  • Rural tourism accommodations
  • Holiday rentals

A hotel without EV charging may be excluded from consideration before a guest even visits the website.
