To discover how much it will cost to charge an EV from a Believ charge point, head to Zapmap’s Public Charging Calculator. This allows you to select any new or used plug-in vehicle, and tailor elements – such as electricity cost and charge required – for personalised results. 

 

How to use the Believ charge points

Drivers can pay for charging through the Believ app, with an RFID card, or by visiting the website. The network charges a small idle fee during daytime hours to avoid its charge points being blocked by vehicles that are not charging. Believ is part of the Zapmap Live data network.

How does Believ compare to other networks in terms of pricing?

Zapmap monitors the prices of charging on the public network and reports on the prices charged by the top 10* rapid charging networks. The prices are updated on a monthly basis here: Rapid Charging: Top 10 Network Pricing

The price to charge an electric vehicle (EV) on the public charging network can vary substantively, and prices are increasing due to current issues in the energy market.
Updated on a monthly basis, the Zapmap Price Index shows the difference in prices paid depending on the type of charger and will also track how this is changing over time.
