Mercedes-Benz UK names Pod sole home charging partner with £250 customer discount

By Eve

Mercedes-Benz UK has appointed Pod as its exclusive home charging partner, offering customers £250 off Pod Point Solo 3S chargers (reduced from £999 to £749 including installation), access to the Pod Power by EDF tariff, and the Pod Rewards programme. Pod currently serves over 300,000 customers and holds a 4.5 Trustpilot rating from more than 30,000 reviews. The partnership formalises a relationship that has been developing over several years.

Why it matters: The sole supplier agreement secures a major OEM channel for Pod's residential hardware and creates a predictable installation pipeline tied to Mercedes-Benz UK's EV sales. For procurement teams, it signals how carmakers are bundling charging into the vehicle purchase journey and may influence tariff and hardware negotiations with other automotive partners.
