There’s a solution right in the problem: mandate a single “balance card” that pays all EV chargers.

Not sure why that gets a downvote. We use this solution all over the place. From transit cards to gift cards you pay a single transaction fee to the credit card company so you can then pay 0 transaction fees on the tiny purchases.

It gets downvotes because people don't need stupid card for gas pumps either. They are using credit/debit cards.
