About Bolt
Bolt is a global mobility platform with ride-hailing, scooter and e-bike rentals, car-sharing, and food delivery services in over 50 countries and 850 cities.
Bolt’s services
From ride-hailing to scooters and food delivery, Bolt’s services are built to reduce car dependency in over 850 cities worldwide.
Ride-hailing
Ride-hailing is Bolt's core service. The platform connects passengers with registered driver partners across 50 countries.
It offers a convenient, reliable transport option and improves connectivity within cities. Bolt offers a range of vehicle categories — from premium to affordable — to make the service accessible to all while providing a market-leading experience for driver partners.
Car-sharing
Bolt Drive lets users rent a car via the app, unlock it with a phone, and pay for the time and distance driven.
This service offers the flexibility needed for longer journeys without the costs of car ownership. Bolt operates across 7 markets using both Bolt-owned and third-party vehicles.
Micromobility
E-bike and scooter rentals are growing transport options in urban areas.
There are over 250,000 vehicles available for hire across 30 countries. Micromobility services provide strong first- and last-mile connections to public transport.
Delivery
Delivery services include Bolt Food, which matches customers with couriers to deliver from 50,000+ restaurants, and Bolt Market, which offers fast grocery delivery from both Bolt-operated and third-party stores.
These services are active in 16 countries across Europe and Africa
Autonomous vehicles
Bolt is testing self-driving technology in partnership with Pony.ai to explore how autonomous ride-hailing could support safe and affordable transport in the future.
The pilot starts in Europe, with plans to expand in the coming years.
History
Bolt was founded in 2013 in Estonia, when 19-year-old Markus Villig set out to fix Tallinn’s broken taxi system. With €5,000 borrowed from his parents, he recruited 50 drivers and built the first version of the app. His brother Martin Villig and co-founder Oliver Leisalu later joined him to grow Bolt into the global platform it is today.

Riding is the new driving
Owning a car means paying for it even when it's parked. With Bolt, you only pay when you move, without the costs and responsibilities that come with ownership. Whether you're riding or renting, you can get where you need to go without the hassle of driving and maintaining a car. That's why millions are choosing riding over driving.
Products and features vary by country. Open your Bolt app to start riding.
