Our story so far

zap is your digital wallet for EV charging.

We kicked off our operations with a bold and radically different vision: to make electrification universal and accessible for everyone. From the CEO to the blue-collar worker.

We believe this is the only way forward because road transportation in the European Union accounts for 73.2% of total greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, according to the European Commission.

The challenge has always been accessibility, which remains one of the industry’s biggest barriers. Electric vehicles are only now becoming affordable, and charging infrastructure is still complex and unevenly distributed. In Portugal, for example, most operational charging stations are concentrated in urban areas and along the Atlantic coast, leaving the interior underserved.

Because we are obsessed with accessibility, our team invests heavily in crafting a seamless user experience for our upcoming MVP. We believe the market is ready for a solution that puts EV drivers and enthusiasts at the center, creating unique and remarkable charging experiences.

With the new legal framework (DL 93/2025) paving the way for industry growth, we have designed a digital wallet that simplifies EV charging. zap is the place to cut through the noise and complexity of charging away from home. With zap, you can access Portugal’s leading eMSPs, compare prices instantly, and start charging remotely: all in one place.

Our mission is simple: focus on the drive, not the hassle. Leave the charging process and bureaucracy to us.
