About this app

Charge Buddy keeps your phone powered all day on campus. Find a nearby station, scan, and rent a portable powerbank in seconds — then return it to any Charge Buddy station when you're done.

Built for students and educators at universities and colleges, Charge Buddy puts fast, affordable charging right where you need it: classrooms, libraries, cafeterias, and study spaces.

HOW IT WORKS
1. Find a station — Open the map to see Charge Buddy stations near you and how many power banks are available.
2. Scan to rent — Scan the QR code on the station with the in-app scanner.
3. Pick a package — Choose a rental duration that fits your day.
4. Pay securely — Complete payment through our trusted payment partner. We never store your card details.
5. Charge on the go — Grab your powerbank and keep moving.
6. Return anywhere — Drop it into any available slot at any Charge Buddy station.
