On September 23, 2025, WEX Inc. (NYSE: WEX), a leading global commerce platform, made headlines with its announcement regarding an expansion of its electric vehicle (EV) charging network. The company has formed strategic partnerships with charge point operators (CPOs) Lynkwell and Revel, along with a payments integration with the smart charging platform Ampcontrol. This initiative aims to facilitate seamless payment processes across hundreds of new charging stations throughout the United States, providing WEX users with a significantly enhanced EV charging experience.

Expanding the Charging Network

Carlos Carriedo, Chief Operating Officer of Americas Payments & Mobility at WEX, emphasized the importance of these partnerships, stating, “Bringing a diverse range of CPOs into the WEX EV network marks a major step forward for fleet operators nationwide.” The integration of WEX's payment processing technology with various charging stations aims to streamline the EV charging experience. This will empower organizations to make more informed operational decisions, thanks to the enhanced data accessibility.

WEX's EV charging network is part of a broader suite of commercial charging solutions tailored for mixed-energy fleets. The WEX EV En Route solution grants drivers access to an expansive network of over 150,000 public charging ports across the U.S. This includes partnerships with prominent networks such as EVgo, Blink, ChargePoint, and more, all accessible through the DriverDash™ mobile app or a universal WEX EV RFID card.

Partnership Highlights

Lynkwell

Lynkwell has positioned itself as a significant player in the EV charging landscape by becoming the only U.S.-based, vertically-integrated EV charging company to offer WEX's corporate-grade payment capabilities. The company focuses on connecting renewable energy generation with next-generation fueling technologies via its Lynkwell XChange™ platform. Nick Bordeau, Vice President of Software Engineering at Lynkwell, expressed enthusiasm about the integration, noting that it simplifies the transition from internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles to EVs for fleets. This partnership aims to reduce operational complexities and enhance customers' confidence as they navigate the evolving energy landscape.

Revel

Revel has transitioned from a ride-hail startup to a key provider of urban public EV fast-charging infrastructure, especially in metropolitan areas like New York and San Francisco. The company's fast-charging superhubs can accommodate multiple makes of EVs, providing a vital service for fleet operators in dense urban settings. CEO and Co-Founder Frank Reig remarked, “Working with WEX allows Revel to extend the reach and convenience of our fast-charging superhubs to more fleet operators than ever before.” The collaboration is poised to reduce operational friction while supporting the shift towards electric fleets.

Ampcontrol

Ampcontrol is an AI-powered software platform that helps optimize charging infrastructure for EV fleet operators. By integrating with WEX, Ampcontrol not only enhances fast charging access but also aims to lower energy costs significantly. CEO Joachim Lohse highlighted the importance of reliable charging access, stating that the integration would enable fleet operators to unlock significant benefits, thereby accelerating the transition to electrification.

Momentum in EV Solutions

This announcement follows WEX's earlier introduction of the WEX EV Depot in April 2025, which allows for frictionless charging at private chargers using WEX fleet cards. With the addition of public charging solutions, WEX has become the first fleet management company in North America to offer comprehensive EV charging payment solutions across depot, public, and at-home charging locations.

As the demand for electric vehicles continues to rise, WEX is positioning itself at the forefront of this transformation, offering innovative solutions that simplify the complexities of fleet management in a rapidly changing energy landscape.
