Electric car owners can save up to £100 per year by signing up to Pod Rewards, a scheme exclusively for Pod customers that rewards smart charging.
How Pod Rewards works
Road users earn rewards for smart charging their vehicle, with motorists eligible for up to £100 in discounts every year. The scheme launched on February 18, 2026.
To qualify, motorists have to smart-charge their vehicles, allowing the car to top up during off-peak hours. Drivers set the time by which they need the car charged, and the system automatically controls when and how quickly the vehicle is topped up.
Flex revenue and cash savings
Adjusting charging windows to times of lower demand lets Pod generate "flex" revenue, which is passed back to UK customers as cash savings. Rewards can be earned regardless of the energy supplier used, and funds can be withdrawn once customers reach £10 in value.
The amount accrued continues to rise as customers charge, though account holders are limited to a maximum of £100 in rewards per year. Existing customers can track their rewards in the Pod Home app.
More than £330,000 already paid out
Pod Rewards has already delivered more than £330,000 in rewards to customers through both cash and vouchers. The company claims it could pay out over £1 million in rewards by the end of the year.
Melanie Lane, CEO of Pod, said: "We want the shift to electric living to feel simple; giving people confidence that they have made a choice that feels easy, more affordable and rewarding. Pod Rewards is not just about the cash customers earn for smart charging; it's also about the feeling that comes from trusting their decision and seeing that choice pay off every day."
Redefining the charging experience
Melanie has previously said: "Pod Rewards redefines the charging experience for our home customers and rewards them for choosing to charge with Pod, without compromising on ease and simplicity. As we continue to pioneer in the home EV charging space, we're making everyday electric mobility more affordable than ever before, for thousands of drivers across the UK."
