Head-to-Head

How Rally compares to Chargemap, feature by feature.

Charge-point access, cross-border use, fuel coverage, admin, and broader spend - see where Rally and Chargemap differ for fleets.

Chargemap is a long-established French EV charging brand with a familiar map-led app and a roaming charging pass. The Chargemap Pass aggregates many European charging operators behind one consumer-facing card and per-driver account. That model is excellent for individual EV drivers, but it leaves fleet teams managing separate cards, invoices, and tools for fuel, EV charging, tolls, parking, and broader spend. Rally takes a different approach: one Visa-backed fleet spend platform that handles all of that on a single card per driver.

Chargemap

One open-network platform

A single Visa-backed card and unified operating system covers fuel, charging, tolls, parking, maintenance, and wider business spend.

Consumer charging-pass aggregator

Chargemap Pass aggregates European charging operators behind one consumer card and account.

EV plus fuel acceptance

Drivers charge across major European charging networks and refuel anywhere Visa is accepted, on the same card.

Charging-network only

Chargemap covers a broad European public-charging footprint, but does not pay for fuel, tolls, parking, or other fleet spend.

No app friction

Core flows work through WhatsApp, SMS, RFID, or the card itself, so drivers do not need extra apps or logins to stay compliant.

Chargemap app and pass

Drivers manage charging through the Chargemap app and pass, with no link to fuel, tolls, parking, or expense workflows.

Receipt-to-ledger automation

All transactions are matched with AI, VAT is extracted, and records sync directly into accounting systems.

Per-driver invoicing

Chargemap invoices each driver as a consumer account, leaving fleet finance to consolidate, reconcile, and post manually.

Simple and transparent

Flat pricing per active driver, no hidden admin fees, no minimum spend, and no deposits or credit checks.

Roaming markup pricing

Pricing typically includes per-session and per-kWh markups on top of operator tariffs, varying by network.

Why Rally

Built for fleets, not for consumer EV drivers.

Rally gives French and European operators wider acceptance, simpler economics, and less admin without splitting fleet spend across consumer charging passes, fuel cards, and expense tools.

Charging plus fuel on one card

Drivers carry one Visa-backed card that works at chargers and pumps across Europe, instead of a Chargemap pass for EVs and a carte carburant for everything else.

Lower total fleet spend

Open-market acceptance avoids the per-session and per-kWh roaming markups stacked on consumer charging passes.

One platform for all spend

Rally covers fuel, charging, tolls, parking, maintenance, and broader business purchases without splitting work into separate consumer products.

App-free driver workflows

Core tasks happen in channels drivers already use, instead of consumer charging apps designed for personal cars.

Built-in accounting automation

Receipt capture, AI matching, VAT extraction, and direct integrations remove manual work that per-driver Chargemap invoices still leave behind.

Fleet controls and visibility

Per-driver, per-vehicle controls and real-time alerts replace consumer-style account management.

Why Fleets Switch

Five reasons fleets are moving from Chargemap to Rally.

What changes when fleets move from a consumer charging pass to an open-network fleet spend platform.

01

EV and fuel sit on one card

Drivers stop carrying a Chargemap pass for EVs plus a carte carburant for diesel and petrol vehicles.

02

Cross-border trips became simpler

One card covers French and European EV charging plus fuel, tolls, and parking on the same routes.

03

Roaming markups disappeared

Rally avoids the per-session and per-kWh markup pattern that grows on consumer roaming charging passes.

04

Finance stopped reconciling per-driver invoices

Receipt capture, VAT extraction, and direct integrations replace the work of consolidating individual Chargemap invoices in finance.

05

Multiple tools collapsed into one

Rally combines fuel, charging, tolls, parking, maintenance, and broader approved spend without asking fleets to manage separate consumer products.

  • Want one platform for charging, fuel, tolls, parking, and wider business spend
  • Want lower total cost than a per-session plus per-kWh markup model
  • Prefer app-free driver workflows over consumer EV apps
