Few things drain the day like a dying phone battery. Enter ChargeSPOT, a growing power bank rental network in Singapore that turns this common problem into a simple, stress-free solution. With just a scan through its mobile app, users can pick up a portable charger from convenient stations and return it to any available location.

ChargeSPOT is rapidly expanding across Singapore with new kiosks appearing in familiar places. Convenience stores such as 7-Eleven and Cheers, restaurants like Yakiniku Like and Genki Sushi, and even community hospitals are now hosting these stations. The result is a web of accessible power that follows you, not the other way around.

Steps to rent with ChargeSPOT: Download app, register, scan QR, add payment, then pick up power bank. Blue theme, icons illustrate steps.

The rental process is streamlined. After logging into the ChargeSPOT app, users locate the nearest station, scan the QR code on the machine or at the store, and receive a 5,000 mAh power bank equipped with multiple cable types. Charging can begin immediately and users are free to walk away with the device, returning it later to any store or kiosk with available slots.

The power banks offer modest charging speeds and are best suited for mid-day top-ups rather than full device charges. However, the service’s flexibility is where it shines. Instead of hovering near wall sockets or being tethered to a restaurant’s charging point, users can stay on the move while charging up!

ChargeSPOT often introduces short-term promotions to keep things interesting. For instance, in Sep 2025, most ChargeSPOT stores/kiosks offered 3 hours of free charging.

In a world where portable tech is essential but power is finite, ChargeSPOT presents a clean, efficient, and shared model that fits seamlessly into everyday life. As more stations pop up around the city, Singaporeans have one less thing to worry about when heading out the door.
