Tesla's centralized Supercharger payment kiosks arrive in Canada

📍 Drive Tesla Canada

Tesla's centralized payment kiosks are starting to appear at Supercharger stations in Canada. They allow non-Tesla EV drivers to pay for charging without downloading the Tesla app. The first documented sighting is in Kingston, Ontario, where Tesla Supercharger tracker MarcoRP shared a photo of a standalone payment terminal at a Supercharger station still waiting to be energized. According to the article, this would be the first publicly documented installation of this system in Canada. Tesla began introducing the system late last year at select V4 sites in the United States.…

🔎 Why it matters: It expands payment options at Canada's Supercharger network for drivers without the Tesla app, with the Kingston installation as the first documented case.
📈 Upside: According to the article, a single touchscreen can serve multiple stalls, reducing weather-exposed hardware at each charger.
📉 Risk: U.S. reports cite rates near double those of the app, and kiosk pricing in Canada has not yet been confirmed.
