How to Add Google Book Now to Your Electric vehicle charging station in Latvia
Home charger installers, workplace charging specialists, and charge-point operators with bookable services — add an official Book Now button on Google Search and Maps. Customers book installation surveys, site assessments, and maintenance slots through the booking page you already use. This guide focuses on Electric vehicle charging station businesses in Latvia.
EV adoption is driving demand for home chargers, workplace installations, and reliable public infrastructure — and customers search Google before they commit. If your business takes booked appointments (surveys, installs, call-outs, consultations), a Book Now action on your Google Business Profile removes friction: one tap from Maps or Search to your scheduler. BookingPage.ai registers supported charging businesses through Reserve with Google. We connect Google to your URL — we do not run your charge network, payment terminals, or OCPP backend. Whether you operate in a major metro or a smaller town in Latvia, the setup steps are the same: verify your business, keep your booking URL live, and register with BookingPage.ai.

Why charging businesses benefit from Book Now on Google
Many EV charging enquiries start with "EV charger installer near me" or "workplace charging quote" on Google Search. Businesses that offer only a phone number lose leads to listings with instant online booking from Google Maps.
Book Now is for appointment-based workflows — installation surveys, engineer visits, fleet charging consultations, and planned maintenance — not for ad-hoc public charging sessions at an open bay. If you have a booking URL for those services, Google Book Now sends high-intent searchers there directly.
Installers often work alongside electricians and electrical contractors. The same Google listing category — Electric vehicle charging station — applies to operators who combine charge-point sales, installation, and aftercare with online scheduling.

What customers book online

Home charger installation — Pre-install surveys, off-street parking assessments, and fitting appointments for wallboxes and smart chargers
Workplace & fleet charging — Site surveys, load management reviews, and depot charging design consultations
Steps to get Google Book Now for your charging business
Use category Electric vehicle charging station — Your Google Business Profile category should match your registration — typically Electric vehicle charging station for installers and operators with bookable services. Confirm on the supported business types list. Related trades may use Electrician or Electrical installation service if that matches your Google listing.

Register free — Complete bookingpage.ai/#register with the same name, address, phone, and category as your Google listing.
Verify your business email — Use a work email on your own domain — not personal Gmail, Yahoo, or Outlook addresses.
We submit to Google — After verification, BookingPage.ai requests your Book Now action through Reserve with Google.
Go live — Customers see Book Now on Search and Maps. Clicks open your booking page — usually within 24–72 hours after verification, subject to Google approval.

Frequently asked questions
Is Electric vehicle charging station a supported Google Book Now category?
Yes. Electric vehicle charging station is in BookingPage.ai's supported business types list. Register with that category if it matches your Google Business Profile and you have an online booking page for appointment-based services.
Can customers book a public charging session through Book Now?
Book Now links to your booking page URL — typically used for installation surveys, engineer visits, and consultations. Ad-hoc public charging at an open bay is usually handled by your charge-point app or contactless payment, not Reserve with Google. Use Book Now for services you schedule in advance.
Does this work for home EV charger installers?
Yes, if your Google category is Electric vehicle charging station (or a supported related category such as Electrician) and you have a URL where homeowners book surveys or installation appointments.
Can workplace and fleet charging consultants use Book Now?
Yes. Businesses that book site surveys, load assessments, and fleet charging design meetings online can register with their booking page URL. Google sends decision-makers from local Search straight to your scheduler.
Do I need to change my charge-point management software?
No. BookingPage.ai only adds the Google Book Now entry point to your appointment booking URL. Your CPMS, OCPP backend, and payment systems stay unchanged.
Can electricians register under this category?
Register with the category on your Google Business Profile. Many installers use Electric vehicle charging station; others use Electrician or Electrical installation service — both are supported. Your registration category must match your Google listing.
Is Google Book Now free for charging businesses?
Yes for most single-location businesses with fewer than 50 Book Now button clicks per day from their Google Business Profile. Higher volumes, multiple sites, or removing the BookingPage.ai redirect require a paid plan.
How is this different from the EV dealers guide?
Dealers focus on test drives and showroom sales. This guide is for charging infrastructure — installs, surveys, maintenance, and fleet consultations. See our electric vehicle dealers guide if you also sell vehicles.
Can I use BookingPage Studio for charger installation bookings?
Yes. Studio provides a branded booking page with services, branding, and Google Calendar sync — useful if you do not yet have a website booking form for surveys and install slots.
Does BookingPage.ai work for electric vehicle charging stations in Latvia?
Yes. If your electric vehicle charging station has a Google Business Profile in Latvia, a business email on your own domain, and an online booking page URL, you can register free at BookingPage.ai to connect Google's Book Now button to the scheduler you already use.
