BP Pulse has partnered with IAG Loyalty, the firm behind global rewards currency Avios, to give drivers the opportunity to collect rewards when charging their EVs.
The new scheme is available at BP Pulse’s 3,000 rapid and ultra-fast charging points in the UK for members of The British Airways Club.
Like collecting Avios on everyday spending, customers can now turn charging with BP Pulse into getaways or rewarding experiences.
Members of the British Airways Club will be able to collect four Avios per £1 when using the BP Pulse app or subscription and two Avios per £1 spent when paying by contactless on every qualifying charging session across BP Pulse’s public charging network in the UK.
To qualify for the scheme, British Airways Club members must register their payment cards at avios.com or the Avios app before charging.
Valerio Ferro, general manager at BP Pulse UK, said, “As EV adoption continues to grow, this partnership adds further value to the charging experience – giving customers a simple way to collect Avios as part of their everyday journeys.
“BP Pulse has become the first EV charging network to offer Avios and we’re delighted to be able to reward drivers as they transition to EVs.”
Rob McDonald, chief commercial officer at IAG Loyalty, said: “Our ambition is to make collecting Avios part of everyday life, and BP Pulse is a logical partner as more members transition to electric vehicles.
“By linking EV charging with Avios, we’re giving members another way to turn everyday activity into meaningful rewards – bringing their next trip even closer.”
