Nayax and Gireve partner to enable card payments across European EV charging networks
Nayax, a global commerce and payment platform, and Gireve, a European EV roaming hub, announced a partnership on 10 November 2025 to simplify card payment acceptance across the EV charging ecosystem. Any Charge Point Operator connected to Gireve's network can instantly activate Nayax payment terminals without additional integration, marking what the companies describe as a major technological advance for conducting card transactions directly through a roaming platform. The solution is designed to help operators comply with the Alternative Fuel Infrastructure Regulation (AFIR) in Europe, which requires price transparency and digital receipts for every transaction.
Why it matters
CPOs across Gireve's European roaming network gain immediate access to compliant card payment infrastructure without custom integration work, potentially accelerating AFIR compliance and reducing procurement complexity. The plug and play approach may lower barriers for smaller operators seeking to meet regulatory payment requirements.
