Most places you can’t roll up and insert a card, yeah? I heard proprietary apps are required a lot of the time

Yeah but it’s also nearly a duopoly between Tesla and Chargepoint, the latter of which I know to support NFC payments so it’s similar to tapping your card

Obviously “it’s OK there’s a duopoly” isn’t the most assuring argument, just saying after 3 years it’s been low on my list of challenges when charging

You should still be able to just walk up and tap your card. It should be no more difficult to use than a gas pump. It’s bullshit that you have to use an app so that they can collect data on you to sell to third parties.
