Anyone know why EVGo is discontinuing their rewards program ?

I have $45 of credits to use up before they expire this August.

Here's the deadlines:
  • July 17, 2025: You’ll no longer earn new points through the program.
  • August 31, 2025: Last day to redeem any points you’ve earned.
  • December 31, 2025: Any promotional charging credits from redeemed points will expire.**

No idea, but I'll speculate:

"Like other charging networks, we put incentives in place to build brand loyalty, and to get people to try DC fast charging. Now, with critical mass, there is no reason to give away the farm. And, we know that a small fraction of people will actually redeem the rewards, so we'll have a positive accounting effect on our financial statements by ending this."

Anyone know why ?
Was it a lack of participation / use ?
Or just another way of making money without having to give freebies ?

Don't know why you thought that was funny. I suspect it's 100% accurate, except for the wording.

Meijer, a grocery chain near us, offers points with purchase, worked out to 2%. Last summer they cut the program by 50%, i.e. earning 1%. And, at times, you can now earn bonus points, adding up in total to way less than 2% overall. They issued big press releases and had TV news stories about the great new program, without a mention of how it was a 50% cut.

Companies don't explain how they're cutting benefits / rewards, they just do it.

I suspect all EV related industries are experiencing a belt-tightening with a largely anti-EV/anti-green Federal administration actively taking steps to sabotage it. So expect more things you've become accustomed in the EV realm to be less 'rewarding' in the coming few years.

Just like Ford was cut off from FNBO issued Ford Rewards Pass VISA that I was using for points.

That's now history.
