Cariqa

Cariqa provides backend-to-backend payment and access infrastructure for EV charging across Europe. Its Connect API lets OEMs, mobility services, fleets and platforms offer electric-vehicle charging through a single integration — discovering charging stations and live connector availability, creating and managing users, collecting payment methods via Stripe (PSD2/SCA compliant), starting and stopping charging sessions on 900,000+ charge points, and retrieving session history, debts and invoices. Cariqa removes reseller markups so charge point operators set the price drivers pay, while platforms earn a transaction revenue share. Backed by Anthemis and Techstars.

Cariqa publishes 7 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Billing Details API, Charging Sessions API, Debts API, and 4 more. Tagged areas include Company, EV Charging, Electric Vehicles, Payments, and Mobility.

Cariqa’s developer surface includes authentication, changelog, sandbox, documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, quickstart, and 20 more developer resources.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Energy & Utilities regime, so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.
The six quality facets above are damped to 85 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 15. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 85% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/.
