This collaboration, announced on Monday, marks XPeng as the first Chinese EV maker to establish a global payment cooperation with Antom, starting in Hong Kong and expanding to Southeast Asia and other markets by 2026.
Antom supports over 300 payment methods in more than 200 markets. XPeng’s charging network spans 31 countries with over 2.66 million charging piles.
The collaboration allows XPeng to integrate various payment methods, including e-wallets and mobile banking apps, into its charging services.

XPENG’s Eyes Global lead
The partnership with Antom is a significant step for XPeng as it continues to expand its global footprint.
By integrating Antom’s payment solutions, XPeng aims to streamline the charging process for users, offering a seamless end-to-end experience from locating to paying for charging services.

This partnership supports over 1,600 public EV chargers, enhancing the accessibility and convenience of charging for XPeng users.
Looking ahead, XPeng plans to extend its services to Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, and other global markets.
