Charge Key is a digital car key that gives you access to your vehicle through a simple link, without needing any physical keys or additional accounts.

What functions does Charge Key have?

Charge Key offers the following features:

If Charge Key Stops Working

Charge Key provides vehicle access as well as Supercharging billing. Tell Customer Care whether the problem is unlocking, starting, hands-free access, or charging payment. A hands-free connection problem does not by itself mean your balance is overdue. If the problem continues, Customer Care will review the booking and access status; payment does not guarantee immediate access restoration.

💳 Billing

⚠️ Keep your balance under $25. If your Charge Key balance goes over $25, your vehicle access will be suspended. This is the #1 cause of Phoenix driver lockouts — check your balance in the app regularly and keep it paid down.

How do I pay for charging?

When you use a Supercharger, the charging cost is automatically billed to your payment method on file. No need to manually pay at the charger!

What payment methods does Charge Key accept?

Charge Key accepts all major credit cards and debit cards, including Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and Discover.
