Tesla MultiPass was designed to simplify charging at compatible stations operated by other networks. This November 2025 article described an initial introduction in the Netherlands in September, followed by Belgium, France, Germany, the United Kingdom and Sweden. It was a step towards managing more charging through one account, rather than a claim that every European charger had joined the service.
The idea was straightforward: find supported non-Tesla stations on the car’s navigation screen or in the Tesla app, then start and pay for a session through the Tesla account, using the app or an activated vehicle key card. For participating stations, that could reduce the need for separate accounts, apps and RFID cards.
Tesla MultiPass
Tesla’s support material described MultiPass as a charging option for Tesla owners. Its main functions were to:
- Find compatible third-party chargers on the vehicle’s touchscreen or in the Tesla app.
- Start charging with an activated key card or through the app, following the required setup.
- Pay using the payment method linked to the Tesla account.
The aim was to make supported third-party charging more convenient, while preserving the distinction between those stations and Tesla-operated Superchargers.
Activating the feature: the position described for Italy in 2025
Tesla described owners as automatically enrolled, but activation and availability still mattered. Owners were notified in the app when they could activate MultiPass. The key-card setup required an intentional activation step, because the card could then initiate a paid charging session. The instructions described in the article were:
- Open the Tesla app.
- Go to Messages and select Tesla MultiPass.
- Select Learn More, then Next.
- Follow the on-screen instructions to activate the key card, including any requested NFC interaction with the phone.
The article described repeating the procedure for additional key cards. Tesla’s support instructions also offered activation through Tesla MultiPass under Manage Payments. Follow the app’s instructions for the supported vehicle, card and phone rather than assuming every setup is identical.
Charging with MultiPass
After activation, the steps described were:
- In Navigation settings, enable Display 3rd Party Charging.
- Find a supported charging station on the vehicle’s map.
- Start the session by tapping the activated key card at the charger or selecting the relevant stall in the Tesla app.
Payment uses the Tesla account’s configured payment method. The charging price depends on the chosen third-party station, so check the displayed tariff before starting. Sessions can be reviewed in the app’s charging history, bringing supported third-party sessions into the same account view.
European availability, and what was known about Italy
The November 2025 report described access in the Netherlands, Belgium, France, Germany, the United Kingdom and Sweden. It did not establish a launch date for Italy. It cited an InsideEVs enquiry whose contacts had no information to share at the time. Further Italian expansion was the author’s expectation, rather than a Tesla announcement or a promise that arrival was imminent. The country list here records the historical report, not a current availability check.
Company charging cards were a separate development
The article also discussed adding supported company charging cards to the Tesla app. For fleet drivers, that could allow charging costs to be handled through a company’s card provider rather than personal payment followed by reimbursement. This was a different payment arrangement from using a Tesla account at another operator’s station.
The original report cited 34 compatible providers and another 40 expected. Those were period figures, not a verified current provider count. Examples it listed included:
- DKV Mobility
- WEX
- UTA eCharge
- Travelcard/Fleetcor
- Chargemap
- Plugsurfing
- Polestar Charge
- Cadillac Charge
- Avia Volt Suisse
- enercity EasyGo
For an eligible card, the described process was to add it to the app and use it for supported charging, with billing handled between Tesla and the provider. Eligibility, default-payment behaviour and coverage depend on the card agreement, market and service; a provider appearing in a historical list does not establish that every card it issues is accepted.
MultiPass and company cards: the difference
The two arrangements solve different problems:
- MultiPass lets an owner use the Tesla account and an activated Tesla key card or the app to pay at participating third-party chargers.
- Supported company charging cards let eligible users pay for compatible Tesla charging through their card provider. They are not automatically a payment method for MultiPass sessions.
Together, these developments aimed to make charging administration simpler, alongside home-charging equipment such as the MID-certified Wall Connector discussed in the original article. Compatibility and payment support still need checking: neither service means access to every third-party network or automatic company billing for every charging session.
