How do I charge my EV without the NRMA App?
As a visitor from the the UK, my phone is registered to the UK APP Stores, and the NRMA app is only available if I'm assigned to the Australian App Store.
It looks like I cannot change the App Store without buying a new phone.
Other EV networks allow me to sign up in advance, and even post EV Charge cards to the UK so that I am prepared.
However, it looks like the ONLY way I can drive my route, is if I use NRMA chargers.
Are there any ideas about whether I can simply:
- use a credit card?
- request an RFID card?
- use another app to pay for NRMA chargers?
Any other suggestion are welcome.
Thanks

Hello @hellisafish , thanks for joining our EV community. We're sorry that your trip cannot be made possible unless using the NRMA network. Unfortunately the app is the only way for right now and we understand changing regions on your device is not a suitable option forward.
We are currently trialling roaming which will allow Chargefox app or RFID cards to be used but that is likely to be a few months away. Credit card terminals are also being worked on for all new charge sites and will look at retrofitting our existing sites, but this would most likely aim to be live mid-year so we can ensure we have suitable devices for difference chargers in our network.
It is something we're looking at, but I'm sorry this does not solve the immediacy for any current road trips. Hopefully this does give some insights on what we are doing.
