About Chargifi: Chargifi is revolutionizing how we consume power in public.
By making convenient
wireless power available to people where and when they need it, we allow
them to stop worrying about their battery life and get back to what’s
really important.
We install under-table wireless charging units in public spaces--bars, restaurants, coffee shops, hotels, corporate spaces, stadiums, and others.
Venues can provide this
value-added service to their customers, while receiving actionable data
and insights about their guests in return. Venues can use this
technology to provide both an improved customer experience and to
understand more about and communicate with their customers.
Using a mobile app
integration, venues can also use the charging session to push customized
promotions, relevant messaging, and other offers to their guests,
providing them for the first time with an opportunity to derive concrete
value from simply making power available to their guests.
Chargifi is a successful

network of international partners expanding our footprint around the
globe. Our vision is to have Chargifi Spots in every public venue in the
world.
