New to Easee? Start by checking that your charger is ready to charge. From there, we'll help you with access and the settings you need for your installation.

01Test your charger

Connect your vehicle and check whether charging starts. This tells you whether your charger is ready to use or whether something needs to be resolved first.

01

Connect the vehicle

Connect the cable securely to the charger and the vehicle.

02

Make sure the vehicle is ready to charge

Check that the vehicle is ready and that its own schedule is not delaying the session.

02Get your charger in the Easee App

If you want to view or manage your charger in the Easee App, how you get access depends on your installation.

My own private charger

If the charger was recently installed, the installer must complete the handover. If it was already installed when you moved in, you may need access or ownership transferred to you.

Shared or managed installation

The Site Owner, Administrator or operator controls access and decides which account, app or key you use.

03Set up what you need

Once charging works and you have the access you need, you can personalise how you use your charger.

Control who can charge

If you own or manage the installation, you can choose who is allowed to charge and whether authentication is required.

Compare access levels and permissions

Use an Easee Key

Use a key or compatible RFID tag to authenticate without using your phone.

Set up an Easee Key

Set a charging schedule

Choose when your vehicle should charge. Avoid overlapping schedules in the Easee App, the vehicle and connected charging services.
