Kwik Charge by Kwik Trip

Haven’t even charged yet but I have thoughts. 1) SSO for all KwikTrip apps. I shouldn’t need a separate login for Kwik Rewards 2) Should offer a visit to Kwik Rewards members 3) Needs to explain why you need my address to signup, I almost deleted it 4) Needs Apple Pay to start a charging session 5) Map/search should zoom out to show nearest location. There’s one six miles from me but it shows no locations nearby so I have to type in the city name

I love Kwik Trip and want to see their charging stations succeed. They need to focus on areas not served by Tesla, their new station in North Branch, MN is a prime example of genius locating. However the app itself is glitchy. Every few times I open it had forgotten my password, when I enter my password, which I KNOW to be correct, it tells me I am wrong. So I go through their process of setting up a new password, use the one I KNEW to be correct, and it tells me I can’t use it because it’s been used before. Also the search feature doesn’t work just pulling up the map. You have to make a guess about where you want to charge, and enter a city name or zip code before you can see stations on a map. So yeah this app needs lots of work, but I sure hope that Kwik Trip is willing to do it because in Kwik Trip’s service area, there’s never a Tesla Supercharger where you need it when you need it. I do have a concern that Kwik Trip has given up on this app. There’s a spot where you can enter your vehicle information with a pull-down box. They don’t have Chevrolet Equinox EV listed as a choice. Chevy has only sold 100,000 of these since 2024, so this seems to not bode well for the future updating of this app.
