Series A — EV ChargingInfrastructure Platform.
Zapp EV is raising its Series A to fund platform development, software-driven operations, and operating capability — structured to deploy asset-backed EV charging infrastructure across dense urban markets.
HoldCo equity funds platform and IP. Construction risk is isolated at the SPV level. The deployment window is open now.

Three Structural Reasons to Pay Attention
The opportunity is defined by infrastructure need, not market sentiment. Each of the following is a structural condition — not a forecast.
The deployment window is open. Urban charging infrastructure is being built right now — and the operators who move first set the terms.
Federal infrastructure funding is flowing. Fleet electrification mandates are active. Urban real estate for charging is still accessible. The structural gap between EV adoption and charging supply is at its widest — and closing it requires capital deployed today, not in three years.
Public EV fleet growth is outpacing charging infrastructure.
Dense urban markets are structurally underserved. By 2030, demand for DC fast charging will significantly exceed installed capacity — not as a forecast, but as a structural condition already visible in fleet data.
- 40% annual EV fleet growth in the US
- 1.2M public charger deficit projected by 2030
- Federal policy accelerating grid investment in urban cores
Asset-backed urban EV charging with software-driven operations.
Zapp EV integrates software monitoring, control systems, and layered revenue within a single urban infrastructure asset. The platform supports EVs, e-bikes, and micromobility — built for how dense cities actually move.
- Software-driven monitoring and control infrastructure
- Layered revenue: kWh, membership, fleet, premium access, ancillary
- Multimodal hub model — EVs, e-bikes, and urban micromobility
Defined capital stack. Conservative underwriting. Isolated risk.
The flagship unit is structured for institutional participation. HoldCo equity funds platform and IP. OpCo manages operations and execution. SPV-level financing isolates construction risk per site.

What Zapp does that others don't
Based on publicly available operator profiles and market positioning as of 2024–2025. Zapp EV is the only operator combining all six characteristics in a single urban asset model.
One Hub. One System. One Operating Standard.
A repeatable operating platform — not a collection of charger sites. Software, space, access, circulation, dwell, and uptime work together as a single coordinated system.
The hub is not a product. It's a system. Four integrated layers that compound in value as the network grows.
Software, revenue architecture, physical infrastructure, and capital structure are not separate components — they are a single integrated system. Each layer reinforces the others. That integration is the moat.
Operating Standard
Always on. Built for everyday life.
Four integrated layers — hover to explore
Always On
24 / 7Always On. Built for Everyday Life.
Designed for 24/7 urban accessibility — not novelty use or limited operating windows. Built to support everyday drivers, recurring members, fleet demand, and dense-city movement at all hours.
Destination Infrastructure
Hub ModelZapp hubs are designed as destination assets — not isolated chargers. The hub model integrates charging, access control, dwell-time utility, and premium urban convenience within a single footprint.
Software-Driven Operations
PlatformEvery hub runs on a unified software layer: real-time monitoring, remote diagnostics, access management, reservations, performance data, and operational controls. Operations are managed centrally, not site-by-site.
Urban Mobility Infrastructure
MultimodalZapp EV hubs are designed for the full spectrum of urban movement — EVs, e-bikes, scooters, and micromobility. One platform. One operating standard. Built for how dense cities actually move.
Operating Standard — 99.9% Uptime
ReliabilityPredictive maintenance, remote diagnostics, and redundant systems are built into the platform architecture to support dependable 24/7 operation.

One platform. One operating standard. Built for how dense cities actually move.
Not Just Chargers. A Software-Coordinated Platform.
Every hub runs on a unified software layer — managing access, uptime, reservations, fleet allocation, pricing, and performance data centrally. This is what makes Zapp EV a software company as much as an infrastructure company.
Centralized Operations
One platform. Every hub. Real-time.
Platform Capabilities
Reservations & Access
Stall reservations and digital access control — no physical keys, no manual check-in.
Live Utilization
Why This Matters to Investors
Improves Uptime & Utilization
Software-driven monitoring directly improves asset uptime — more sessions, more revenue, better unit economics.
Operating Leverage at Scale
Each new hub benefits from the same software layer. Operating costs do not scale linearly with asset count.
IP Compounds at HoldCo
The software platform and operational IP sit at HoldCo. As the network grows, platform value compounds above the asset level.
The Core Platform Thesis
Infrastructure that gets smarter over time.
The software layer improves uptime, drives utilization, enables disciplined replication, and compounds IP value at HoldCo — making every future hub more efficient than the last. The platform doesn't just operate infrastructure. It learns from it.
Uptime Improves
With every monitored event
Costs Don't Scale Linearly
Operating leverage grows
IP Value at HoldCo
Above the asset level
Every hub runs on the same platform.
Software-coordinated. Centrally monitored. Built to replicate.
Operating Standards. Not Aspirations.
Every characteristic below is a structural feature of the platform — built into the capital architecture, the operating model, and the software layer. Not a goal. A design decision.
The platform is the product. Software, structure, and operating model are inseparable.
Zapp EV is not a charging company that uses software. It is a software platform that operates charging infrastructure. The distinction matters for how value compounds, how risk is contained, and how the asset performs at scale.

Capital Tiers
HoldCo · OpCo · SPV
Defined entry, risk profile, and exit logic at each tier.
Software-Driven Ops
Centralized monitoring, remote diagnostics, and real-time control across every hub from a single platform.
Urban-First Model
Designed for dense urban environments where EV adoption is highest and charging infrastructure is most constrained.
Multimodal Platform
Supports EVs, e-bikes, and micromobility — built for how dense cities actually move, not just how they charge.
Controlled Access
Premium garage suites and reserved stalls create higher-yield access tiers above standard public charging.
Fleet Revenue Anchor
Long-term fleet contracts provide pre-committed volume and baseline revenue before a site opens.
Data-Informed Ops
Every session, every stall, every site generates operational data that feeds back into the platform and improves performance.
Conservative Underwriting
Base-case projections stress-tested at 40% utilization. Upside is structural — not assumed in the model.
Isolated Construction Risk
SPV-level financing means site-level risk is contained. HoldCo equity is not exposed to per-site construction outcomes.
Platform summary: Every characteristic above is a structural feature — not a roadmap item. The software layer, capital architecture, and operating model are already designed to support institutional deployment at scale.
