I wish the EU would do that. Driving in Germany is impossible without one of the charge cards. I really don't get why credit cards aren't mandated to work on all public chargers.

EU is doing that as well now: https://www.theverge.com/23806690/eu-ev-fast-charger-60km-law-regulation-requirements https://www.theverge.com/23806690/eu-ev-fast-charger-60km-la... --- start quote --- The regulation also requires that ad-hoc charging payments can be made via cards or contactless devices, without requiring a subscription. That should make it possible to pull over to any charging station from any network and charge your EV without first hunting for the correct app or signing up for a subscription. Operators are required to clearly list prices at their installed recharging points via “electronic means,” including wait times and availability. --- end quote --- It will take time for all chargers to convert though.
