Chargeitspot

Founded in 2012, ChargeItSpot® products have revolutionized the world of mobile device management, charging, and security. Our intelligent, locker-based kiosk solutions are thoughtfully designed to empower businesses and ground teams alike. The company began when our founder, Douglas Baldasare, recognized the need for secure, self-service phone charging in public spaces. As part of The Wharton School’s venture incubator, he created the first prototype of the ChargeIt kiosk. 10 years later, ChargeIt kiosks had become prominent in nearly every retail center in North America, having helped consumers over 16 million times with free and secure charging for their dying phones, while driving shopper traffic and marketing leads for clients. Along the way, we identified a critical issue facing almost all of our clients: frustration around managing the handheld devices that employees use to be productive. They were experiencing surprisingly high device theft and loss, wasted time managing manual processes, and lost productivity when devices stopped working, went missing, or batteries died. Recognizing the enormous cost and ubiquity of this problem, ChargeItSpot applied the patented technology from its consumer-facing solution to a brand-new enterprise solution for the back of house. In 2021, ChargeItSpot launched ARC®, a centralized device management system designed to secure, charge, and monitor employee devices across various industries. ARC minimizes device theft and loss, actively contributing to increased productivity, reduced wasted payroll time for managers and employees, and a decrease in the number of faulty devices in circulation. Serving some of the largest and most recognized companies in the world, the ChargeItSpot team continues to innovate and empower people to focus on what matters most. The company is headquartered in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
