Power bank rental · Sydney
Dead phone?
Grab an Ampa.
Tap your card at an Ampa station, take a charged power bank with you, and drop it back when you're done. No app, no sign-up, about ten seconds.
How it works
Tap. Charge. Return.
The same three steps printed on every station. The price is on screen before you pay.
Tap to pay
Hold your card or phone on the reader, or insert your card. A charged power bank pops out of its slot.
Apple Pay · Google Pay · Visa · MastercardCharge anywhere
USB‑C, Lightning and Micro USB cables are built into the power bank. Plug in and keep it with you while you train, eat or catch up.

Slide it into any empty slot on an Ampa station. Your rental ends the moment it clicks in.

Questions
Quick answers.
Do I need an app or an account?
No. You pay by tapping your card or phone on the station, the same as buying a coffee. There's nothing to download.
Will it work with my phone?
Yes. Each power bank has USB‑C, Lightning and Micro USB cables built in, so it covers iPhone, Android and most other devices.
How do I know what it costs?
The price is shown on the station's screen before you tap. You're only charged for the time you have the power bank.
Where do I return it?
Any Ampa station, not just the one you took it from. Slide it into an empty slot and the rental ends automatically.
What does a venue have to do?
Provide a spot and a power point. Ampa delivers, installs and looks after the station, and keeps the power banks charged and clean.
