21st October 2026
Get charging before October ends: Start earning, keep your tier or climb to a new one.
With just under two weeks left of October, now is the time to make your charges really count. Plug in at any of our 1,200+ locations before the month ends and start unlocking InstaVolt Miles rewards immediately.
Already earning Volts? Top up before October is over and you can keep your InstaVolt Miles tier for the next two months or move up to a new one.
Every time you charge with InstaVolt through the app, you earn Volts. It doesn’t matter whether you charge in the day at our standard rate or overnight with our market-leading 55p/kWh off-peak price (8pm to 7am). Either way, you earn the same number of Volts for every £1 you spend.
-
- Starter: £1 = 1 Volt
- Bronze: £1 = 5 Volts
- Silver: £1 = 10 Volts
- Gold: £1 = 15 Volts
InstaVolt Miles is simple – the more you charge, the quicker you climb through the Starter, Bronze, Silver and Gold tiers, and the more Volts you get for every £1. It’s completely free, and unlike other reward programmes, once you hit a tier you keep it for two months. Move up again and you keep that new tier for another two. It’s our way of saying thank you for choosing InstaVolt.
You can use your Volts against your next charge. Say you’re in the Bronze tier and you’ve spent £80 charging with us this month. You’ll have earned 400 Volts, and as each Volt is worth 1p of charging credit, that’s £4 off your next charge.
Or, from the 2nd of November, you can transfer your Volts into Virgin Points with Virgin Red, with each Volt worth one Virgin Red point. So where could your points take you?*
- Fly with Virgin Atlantic
- Sail away with Virgin Voyages
- Check in somewhere fabulous with Virgin Hotels
- Make a day of it with Virgin Experience Days
- Raise a glass with Virgin Wines
- Grab the popcorn with cinema tickets
Rewards are only part of the story. Charging with InstaVolt comes with benefits you’ll notice every time you plug in.
We’re proud that our ultra-rapid chargers actually mean ultra-rapid. We’re the only charge point operator in the UK to install one charger per bay, which means full power every time, with no sharing of charger. Full power means a faster charge, and a faster charge means more time for the things that matter to you.
And if you drive a CHAdeMO car, we’ve got you covered too. CHAdeMO charging is a permanent feature of our network, and we promise at least one CHAdeMO connector at every site. Petrol and diesel drivers don’t have to find a new type of station when they switch cars, so why should you?
Best of all, InstaVolt Miles, Virgin Red and off-peak charging are completely free to access. Just download the InstaVolt app, pay through it and charge as you normally would. It’s as simple as that.
The more you charge, the more you earn, and the more you save.
