The problem

EV charging is still too fragmented.

Apps & RFID

Too many apps and tags

Charging should not depend on remembering the right app, login, account or RFID tag for every network.

Operator data

Fragmented data and loyalty

When users jump between payment and identification systems, providers lose the ability to deliver a consistent experience and build customer relationships.

Hardware overhead

Higher cost, slower scaling

Parallel solutions create cost and friction. A common software layer can make existing infrastructure more useful without replacing hardware.

The solution

The car becomes the identifier.

Tagless turns the existing charging connection into a secure identification channel. When a vehicle connects, Tagless coordinates a dynamic software-based sequence between the charger, the CPO backend and the vehicle.

No separate tag. No extra device. No new charger hardware.

Core promise

A universal, hardware-free path toward plug-and-charge for everyone.

Compatible with networked OCPP chargers and existing CPO/EMSP backend integrations — no new hardware required.

How it works

The identification sequence

A unique pattern is created by matching what the charger sends with what the vehicle receives — combined with location and vehicle identity.

01

Vehicle connects

A Tagless-enabled vehicle is plugged into a compatible charger.

02

Charger notifies Tagless

The backend sends charger ID, location and charging capability data to the Tagless cloud.

03

Tagless sends a randomised current profile

Tagless instructs the charger to output a sequence of selected current levels.

04

Vehicle confirms what it receives

The vehicle reports the received charging current, location and vehicle identity.

05

Pattern is matched

Tagless compares the current profile, charger location and vehicle data to authenticate the session.

06

Charging and payment proceed

On a successful match, the session continues. Consumption is tracked and payment is handled by Tagless or the partner.

Business model

One protocol.
Two ways to partner.

IaaS

Identification-as-a-Service

Tagless provides the secure identification layer. The partner keeps authorisation, billing and customer flow.

For investors

A standard,
not a product.

Software over hardware

No hardware rollout — ever.

Tagless works through software communication and existing charging infrastructure, reducing hardware rollout requirements entirely.

Network effects

Stronger network, stronger moat.

A shared identification standard improves experience across charging networks and creates a defensible platform position over time.

Data and payments

Two revenue streams, one integration.

Tagless supports SaaS and IaaS revenue streams across identification, authorisation, payments and partner integrations.
