This is good. Hopefully Ford, GM and Rivian ensure their vehicle software can access the supercharger API though, but this will be good for the others that don’t get API access.

Also, from my couple of weeks renting a Model 3 in the UK, the best 3rd party charger had this set up instead of an app. I could just tap my credit card and charge. Whereas the ones that insisted on an app gave real issues. Because my Apple ID is in the US, I couldn’t even download their app, so I had to go onto their website. Then I had to manually enter my card details and load £25 on there and then it didn’t recognize that I had funds, and it took another £25 away.
