How to Pay at Mer in Sweden

You can pay at Mer stations in Sweden using the Mer app, an RFID card, or a contactless bank card or phone. Prices are shown in SEK. Contactless is the quickest way to start if you do not have a Mer account.

Mer charges around 0.49 EUR per kWh for DC charging in Sweden. The Swedish average DC price is about 0.50 EUR per kWh, so Mer is competitive with the market. Home electricity averages roughly 0.15 EUR per kWh, making home or workplace charging significantly cheaper than public DC.

Tips for Charging with Mer in Sweden

• Mer accepts app, RFID, and contactless payment in Sweden. Contactless works at most stations and is the easiest option for occasional users.
• Sweden uses Type 2 and CCS2 plugs. All Mer DC stations have CCS2, so any modern EV with a CCS port will work.
• Charging along the E4 (Stockholm to Gothenburg to Malmo) is straightforward. If you are heading further north toward Lulea or Kiruna, plan your stops carefully as stations become less frequent.
• Winter driving in Sweden means cold batteries. Start the car's preconditioning feature 20 to 30 minutes before you plan to charge for the best speeds.

Common Issues

• In northern Sweden during winter, charging speeds can drop noticeably if the battery is not preconditioned.
• Some Mer stations in rural areas have limited stalls. Check availability in the app before making a detour.
• Contactless payment occasionally fails on the first attempt. Wait a few seconds and try again before switching to the app.

Other charging networks also cover Sweden's major routes, so you can find alternatives if a Mer station is full or temporarily offline.
