I have little RFID cards from 2 charging companies that I can tap to their chargers to charge.

Also, many chargers support tapping a credit card on them to charge.

The credit card tapping option should be required by law. This registering apps and fobs flow is the worst ux imaginable. And while we are at it the car should hold the payment info. Plugging it in should be enough. I know it’s all coming.

I agree but I'd go further: Cash should be required by law, we shouldn't require people to have a bank account just to buy electricity.

Your comment is proving my point!

(Proprietary networks are a mess, and ordinary debit/credit card payments for EV charging are far from universal)
