Powermat IP Licensing
Over 10 years of innovation
Our Innovation
Established in 2006, Powermat has invested heavily in creating and patenting its intellectual property. Continuously dominating the wireless charging market, Powermat has developed a solid and robust IP portfolio, including over 100 granted patents. The priority date for most of the IP is dated back to 2007 or early 2008, prior to the formation of standards organizations. Powermat continues to push the envelope on wireless charging innovation, as we believe that wireless charging has yet to reach its enormous potential for creating seamless experiences and enabling us all to live life at 100%.
- First wireless charging platform
- First to consumer market
- First to automotive market
- First national roll out in coffee shops
- Leading provider of wireless charging technology to mobile OEMs
Powermat's IP Licensing Program
1. Standard Essential IP (Qi & AirFuel inductive) license:
Powermat offers IP licensing to OEM companies manufacturing and/or selling Qi or AirFuel Inductive-based products. Terms are FRAND (Fair Reasonable Nondiscriminatory) terms according to WPC and AirFuel charters.
As of May 2021, Powermat is revising the licensing rates that it offers for wireless charging transmitters, receivers, and for in-vehicle use of transmitters. We are adjusting our rates to reflect the maturity of the wireless charging market, to address new product categories, and to serve our goal of encouraging and supporting new applications of wireless charging technologies.
Powermat’s new licensing rates** for various product categories are as follows:
* Embedded Rx consuming a maximum of 5W or less are excluded from WPC royalties payment ** The basic price per unit may vary pursuant to different volumes, territories, segments/sub-segments, payment terms, promotions, etc.
2. Powermat IP and technology comprehensive license:
Powermat offers comprehensive technology and IP licensing based on over 100 approved patents, most of them granted before the formation of the standard organizations.
