Company profile

researched Sep 2026

Chargerzilla operates an EV charging platform for the United States and Canada that combines a public-charger directory with a peer-to-peer marketplace for privately owned chargers. Through its iOS and Android apps, drivers can search and filter charging stations, view real-time availability and charging speeds, navigate to sites, plan multi-stop road trips with a trip planner, leave community reviews, and track session history, energy usage and costs. Company materials describe aggregated coverage of public charging networks in the U.S. and Canada, including Tesla Superchargers, Blink, EVgo, Shell Recharge, bp pulse, Electrify Canada, FLO, Circuit électrique and others, with station counts cited variously as 250,000+, 275,000+ and 300,000+ across company pages.

The second side of the platform is the "Chargerzilla Network" of private hosts. Homeowners, small businesses, hotels, retail sites and commercial property owners list a charger with title, pricing and availability, accept or decline bookings, and receive payments; the company markets potential host earnings of up to $1,000 per week and provides an in-app earnings calculator and dashboard. For businesses and charge point operators, the platform offers station visibility, promotions and dynamic pricing aimed at higher utilization, plus unified charging access for fleets.

Chargerzilla also operates an online shop selling home and commercial EV charging equipment and accessories from brands including Autel, Wallbox and Ampure, with Level 2 units listed at prices roughly between $428 and $1,299 and accessories such as replacement cables and holsters.

Business model

Chargerzilla runs a two-sided marketplace: EV drivers use a free mobile app to locate, filter and reserve charging sessions, while homeowners and businesses list their own chargers, set pricing and availability, accept bookings and receive payments through the platform. Payments are processed in-app, with hosts able to withdraw earnings to a bank account once a $10 balance threshold is reached. A separate e-commerce storefront sells EV charging hardware and accessories.

Revenue is associated with transactions on hosted charging sessions booked through the platform, business and CPO services such as promotions and dynamic pricing, member benefits, sales of EV chargers and accessories through its online store, and advertising within the mobile app.

Traction

Company materials cite more than 10,000 app users and a 4.8/5 rating, and the Google Play listing reports over 10,000 downloads as of September 2026. Coverage claims range from 250,000 to 300,000 charging stations across 125+ public networks in the U.S. and Canada, with additional site claims about hosts' revenue, CO2 avoided and communities served displayed as unpopulated counters.

Market position

Chargerzilla positions itself as a North America-wide EV charging platform spanning public network aggregation and peer-to-peer private charger sharing; the app store listing places it alongside other EV charger map applications such as PlugShare.

The platform combines aggregated public-network charger data with a reservable network of private home and business chargers in a single app, adding booking ahead of arrival, trip planning, community reviews and an integrated hardware store rather than offering discovery alone.

Go-to-market

Distribution is primarily through the consumer mobile app on the App Store and Google Play, supported by host recruitment aimed at homeowners and property owners, a business/CPO and fleet offering, partner network sign-ups, promotional discount codes, an email newsletter, and a direct-to-consumer hardware store.
