About Charge Buddy
Charge Buddy is a self-service power bank rental service built for students and educators in Bangladesh. When your phone is running low, find a nearby Charge Buddy cabinet, scan, and grab a fully charged power bank in seconds — then return it to any Charge Buddy station when you're done.
Our Policies
Who We Are
Charge Buddy provides on-the-go phone charging through a network of smart charging cabinets placed at partner locations such as campuses, cafés, and shops. Each cabinet holds rentable power banks with built-in cables, so you can stay powered without carrying a charger or hunting for a wall socket.
What We Provide
- Rentable power banks dispensed from Charge Buddy cabinets at partner locations.
- A mobile app to locate nearby stations on a map, scan to rent, and track your rental.
- Flexible rental durations with pricing shown up front before you rent.
- Return to any available Charge Buddy cabinet — not just the one you rented from.
- In-app support to report any issue with a rental, payment, or station.
Our Mission
Our purpose is simple: make sure no student or educator is ever stranded with a dead phone. We aim to provide affordable, reliable, and accessible charging on campuses and everyday spots across Bangladesh — reducing the need for everyone to buy and carry their own power bank, and giving shared devices a second life.
How Charge Buddy Works
- 1. Find a station. Open the app and use the map to find a nearby Charge Buddy cabinet, or simply scan the QR code on any Charge Buddy machine.
- 2. Verify once. Create an account with your educational email and phone number — a one-time setup.
- 3. Rent. Confirm your rental in the app; the cabinet releases a power bank for you to take.
- 4. Charge anywhere. Use the built-in cable to charge your phone on the go.
- 5. Return. Insert the power bank into a free slot at any Charge Buddy station. Your rental ends once the return is confirmed.
