Are Blink chargers OCPP compatible?

Yes: the IQ 200 declares OCPP 1.5 and 1.6, and Series 7, 8 and 9 have held OCPP 2.0.1 certification since September 2025. What is not published is how the owner changes the server.

Can I connect a Blink charger to askacharge.com?

There is no published setting to do it yourself. Blink says its certification lets you connect to your preferred platform: ask them in writing to configure the charger against yours.

Which OCPP version does askacharge.com need?

OCPP 1.6J (JSON) or 2.0.1. OCPP 1.5 is SOAP and we do not support it.

Do Blink chargers support OCPP? Yes (IQ 200, Series 7/8/9), but there is no published setting to change platforms

Blink says its OCPP certification lets customers "connect to their preferred platform". That is good news, but it does not say where the setting is. Here is what is published and what is worth asking for in writing.

Where the setting lives (not published)

There is no published procedure for the owner. In the NYSERDA Charge Ready fact sheet, the IQ 200 declares "OCPP 1.5 and 1.6", with the Blink Network as the only provider to date. In September 2025 Blink announced OCPP 2.0.1 certification for its Series 7, 8 and 9 and said it allows customers "to connect to their preferred platform". We have found no manual or guide that says where the server is changed: today it goes through Blink.

What you can do today

Check the model. IQ 200: OCPP 1.5/1.6 per its fact sheet. Series 7, 8 and 9: OCPP 2.0.1 certified. For the HQ 200 home units we have found nothing about OCPP.
Ask Blink in writing to configure your charger against the platform you choose, and to tell you which identity and credential it will send.
When they do, check it first on our OCPP test server: you see whether it arrives, with which identity, and whether it sends a password.
If the charger is for a business and you have not bought it yet, ask in writing for the OCPP URL to be editable by the owner, without going through Blink.
If Blink publishes where the setting is, this page changes the same day. It is dated in the header.

Where it usually fails

"OCPP 2.0.1 certified" says the unit speaks the protocol properly. It does not say you can change the server.
The NYSERDA fact sheet for the IQ 200 still cites OCPP 1.5. askacharge.com speaks 1.6J and 2.0.1; it does not connect over 1.5 (SOAP).

If your brand isn't here

The procedure is always the same; what changes is where the setting lives: look in the manufacturer's app, in the charger's web interface (by its IP) or in the installer software for a section called OCPP, Back office, Central System or Server. You need to be able to enter the URL and, nearly always, the identity. If the field is locked or missing, the manufacturer has tied the charger to its own platform: read what to do when the manufacturer locks or switches off its server.
