New configuration embeds Nayax Uno Mini to deliver seamless, app-free credit card payments as Autel accelerates AC charging deployments

GREENSBORO, N.C., Jan. 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Autel Energy today announced the U.S. launch of a new configuration of its MaxiCharger AC Single, an advanced AC EV charging solution designed for large-scale destination, workplace, hospitality, fleet, and multi-family residential deployments. The new configuration comes with the Nayax Uno Mini payment device integrated at the factory, enabling seamless, app-free credit card payment acceptance directly at the charger.

The launch represents a significant milestone in Autel Energy's strategy to deliver interoperable, payment-ready, and commercially scalable EV charging solutions for the North American market.

This announcement builds on the strategic partnership between Autel Energy and Nayax first publicized in August 2025, in which Nayax and Autel committed to delivering embedded payment solutions across Autel's global EV charging portfolio. Under that agreement, Nayax's payment technology is slated to be integrated into an estimated 100,000 Autel EV chargers planned for deployment across North America and Europe by the end of 2026, further demonstrating both companies' shared vision for scalable, payment-ready, and customer-friendly charging infrastructure.

Interoperable, Flexible, and Built for Scale

The MaxiCharger AC Single maintains the product architecture and appearance of the existing model, offering the same installation footprint and performance profile while adding embedded card payment functionality.

Key capabilities include:

Adjustable output up to 19.2 kW / 80A (site configurable) Smart dynamic load balancing for large deployments Support for ISO 15118 Plug & Charge and AutoCharge OCPP 1.6J and 2.0.1, preserving platform choice Five-year standard warranty and 10+ year design lifespan With no mechanical or enclosure changes, operators can adopt the new configuration seamlessly across mixed sites, retrofit programs, and new construction projects.

Embedded Payments with Nayax

Through the integration of the Nayax Uno Mini, the MaxiCharger AC Single now supports:

Contactless EMV, insert, and NFC wallet payments App-free, registration-free charging for public access RFID and closed-loop payment options for fleets and controlled access environments Immediate monetization of charging assets "Our partnership with Autel is about enabling smarter, more scalable EV charging," said Aaron Greenberg, Chief Strategy Officer at Nayax. "By embedding the Nayax Uno Mini directly into the MaxiCharger platform, Autel is delivering a charger that is turnkey, card-payment ready, and designed for deployment at scale across North America."

Optimized for Fast Deployment and High Uptime

The MaxiCharger AC Single incorporates features that simplify deployment and operations across distributed networks and multi-site portfolios:

Consistent installation workflow with current AC Single units Rapid commissioning through Autel's digital platform Remote monitoring and diagnostics via Autel's O&M and digital twin tools Multiple connectivity options, including Wi-Fi, Ethernet, and Wi-SUN "This configuration brings payment capability directly into the AC Single platform without compromising the openness or flexibility that our customers rely on," said Michelle Luo, Chief Revenue Officer at Autel Energy. "For us, this is all about experience. We bring our expertise as an industry leader, but it's the experience of our customers that matters most — drivers, fleets, and operators who rely on Autel every day to keep their vehicles moving. If we can make charging simpler, faster, and more intuitive, then we're doing our job."

U.S. Market Availability

The new MaxiCharger AC Single configuration with the integrated Nayax Uno Mini is available now through Autel's distribution partners, resellers, and the Autel Energy website, and will be shown at the 2026 CES at booth LVCC, West Hall — 6219.

Autel plans to significantly scale AC charger shipments throughout 2026, supporting rapid growth in commercial, workplace, retail, and municipal charging infrastructure across the United States.
