The SmartHub provides a location for contractors to charge more e-scooters while reducing the travel time required from pick-up to redeployment.

Charge has partnered with Reef Technology, the largest parking network in North America with more than 4,500 locations, to host the first SmartHub in Los Angeles.

Each Charge SmartHub contains four individual bays, capable of charging 18 scooters at once or 72 scooters across the hub. Each bay is rented for a 24-hour period via Charge’s mobile application.

The Charge SmartHub automatically detects which operators have e-scooters docked in each station. Operators are then billed by the percentage of charge.
