Allego launches a cashback campaign for fast charging in Germany and France

Allego is launching a time-limited cashback offer at 250 fast charging locations in Germany and France. Those who charge and pay through the Allego app will receive 20 cents back per kilowatt hour charged until the end of December. This reduces the effective price in Germany to as low as 19 cents/kWh.

The promotion runs from October 15th to December 31st, 2026, and is available at a total of 250 participating Allego locations, including 200 in Germany. The requirement is that the charging process be initiated and paid for through the Allego app. Relevant locations are marked accordingly.

The cashback is available to both users of the free Allego Smart tariff and customers of the paid Allego Plus subscription. In Germany, this results in a calculated price of 39 cents instead of the regular 59 cents per kWh for Smart users. For Allego Plus, the price drops from 39 to 19 cents per kWh after applying the cashback. However, the discount is not deducted directly from each charging session. Allego automatically credits 20 cents per kilowatt hour to the wallet in the app afterward. No promo code or separate application is required.

Allego had already updated its app-based pricing plans in the summer. For Plus customers, the regular price in Germany was permanently reduced from 49 to 39 cents per kWh at that time, while Smart users paid 59 cents per kWh. Meanwhile, the provider offered time-limited discounts at fast charging locations in Italy, France, and Spain in collaboration with Atlante.

19 cents/kWh calculated using Allego Plus

Based on a consumption of 20 kWh per 100 kilometers, Allego’s calculations show that Plus customers would incur effective energy costs of 3.80 euros per 100 kilometers, or 38 euros for 1,000 kilometers. At the regular Smart price of 59 cents per kWh, the cost would be 11.80 euros per 100 kilometers, or 118 euros for 1,000 kilometers.

The estimate does not account for the cost of the Plus subscription and assumes that the cashback credited is used in its entirety. Actual energy consumption can also vary significantly from the assumed 20 kWh/100 km depending on the vehicle, route, driving style, and weather conditions.

Technically, this initiative is implemented in partnership with Deftpower. The company provides technological solutions for vehicle charging services and, according to Allego, handles part of the technical setup for the cashback feature.

According to Allego, it operates more than 35,000 AC and DC charging stations in 16 European countries. With the campaign running until the end of the year, the operator continues its recently intensified pricing and subscription strategy while also trying to handle more charging transactions through its own app.
