Proposal, July 2026

EV charging within RewardFlex: where Blulinc fits

For Arnaud Guyaux, Monizze. Follow-up to our conversation of 7 July 2026.

Key message
This proposal does not focus on employees without a company car charging their private vehicle, an area where you rightly voiced fiscal caution. It focuses on two already validated categories: (1) charge points linked to an electric company car, and (2) the mandatory mobility budget transition from 2027 onwards.
1Context

The legal lever: 2027

1 Jan 2026
Only zero-emission (electric) vehicles remain eligible for pillar 1 of the mobility budget.
1 Jan 2027
The mobility budget becomes mandatory for employers with 50+ employees who have offered company cars for 36+ months.
1 Jan 2028
The same obligation extends to employers with 15 to 49 employees.
85%
of the affected companies have not yet started preparing.Source: Acerta study, cited on Monizze's own blog.
100%
of pillar 1 choices will be electric: every employee who opts in receives an EV, and therefore a charging need.
Every employee choosing pillar 1 receives an electric vehicle and needs a charging solution. That is exactly where Blulinc fits in.
2Category 1

Charge point via cafeteria plan: an already proven category

Market validation

Other cafeteria plan providers already do this: Liantis works with Pluginvest (charge point leasing within the cafeteria plan, condition: electric or plug-in hybrid company car). Stroohm and Payflip offer comparable models.

Technical requirements
  • MID-approved meter
  • OCPP 1.6 / 2.0.1 compatibility
  • Grid connection / upgrade at the employee's expense
  • Fire insurance notification
Fiscal confirmation (Acerta)
A home charge point provided by the employer as part of making a company car available is not treated by the NSSO and FPS Finance as a separate benefit in kind.

Important observation: Monizze currently has no dedicated charge point delivery partner. This is therefore an open category, not a displacement of an existing relationship.

How the Blulinc prepaid card works

Ownership and contracting party

The card is issued by Blulinc. The contracting party is typically the employer (card in the company's name, made available to the employee), with an optional personal sub-account for private top-ups by the employee via voucher or credit card.

Money flow in 3 steps
1
Top up
Employer or employee loads an amount via cafeteria plan budget or bonus.
2
Balance with rules
Balance sits on the card, bound to geographic, network and DC restrictions.
3
Automatic stop
Charging stops at zero balance. The card is reloadable at any time.
Controls that appeal to HR teams
Geographic restriction
E.g. Belgium only, France blocked.
Network exclusion
E.g. block specific providers (Fastned).
Fast-charge cap
E.g. max 20% of monthly kWh on DC.
Price cap per kWh
E.g. only display or reimburse under EUR 0.80/kWh.
Two applicable scenarios (per your own classification)
A. Company car without a charge card
An employee with a company car but no fuel or charge card buys the right to a card via the cafeteria plan.
B. Extra foreign budget
An employee with an existing card buys additional budget for use abroad.
4Next step

Proposed pilot

Rather than a broad, abstract integration, we propose a concrete pilot with 1 to 2 Monizze customers currently electrifying their fleet. This makes the value directly measurable and keeps the scope contained for your product team.

Candidate customers: to be defined jointly with Monizze

6Parallel track

Dealzz: a faster, independent channel

Independently of the RewardFlex integration, Blulinc can also join Dealzz, Monizze's discount platform (750,000+ users, free registration, commission per transaction only). For example via an introductory discount on charging credit or on the installation of a home charge point. This track does not require legal validation and can be operational quickly.

Proposed next step

A short follow-up with your legal/tax team

Focused on the two use cases above (charge point tied to a company car, and mobility budget transition), not on the broader debate around private charging by employees without a company car.
