Frequently asked questions

Charging an electric car is safe and simple. With SHARE NOW, you can charge at any E.ON, Clever, Spirii, and IONITY charging station in Denmark. If you're in Sweden or Germany and need to charge, we refer to the E.ON Drive app.

How to charge an electric car

1. Take the charging cable from the boot of the car.
2. Open the car's charging port with a gentle tap and plug in the cable. The charging port is located above the rear wheel.
3. There is a chip in the plug of the charging cable. Scan the plug on the top, front or side of the charging station to activate charging, then plug in the cable.
4. The car is charging when the lights around the car's charging port light up.

Hint: Each time you fully charge a car that has less than 30% battery level, you earn 30 kr. in SHARE NOW credit. If the car has less than 15%, you can earn as much as 60 kr. in SHARE NOW credit. This will be used to pay for your trips and trip related costs. Credit can only be earned on trips that are paid via your personal payment profile.

Please note: If the battery level is below 5%, you're obligated to charge the car (if the circumstances allow it)

You can park the car at most charging stations if the car is charging, but you can't always end your trip there.

Denmark
You can park at any of our charging partners, but you can only end your trip inside the Home Area. At some charging stations, e.g. Lüders parking garage in Nordhavn, it is only allowed to park if the car is charging at the same time. At other stations, e.g. P-hus Ejler Bille in Ørestad, you're only allowed to park the car at selected spots. Always make sure to follow local signage when you park.

We encourage you to charge the car when parking at a charging station, even if it's not mandatory. This way, the charging network can be utilised most efficiently.

You don't have to refuel our cars, but if you do, the cost is on us. Fueling your SHARE NOW car is free – as long as you do so at a partner fuel station.
