In the sharing economy, Felyx takes the next step in transportation: Electric Scooter sharing!
The super cool feature of this service is that the user doesn't have to return the Electric Scooter to a specific station; The user can leave it wherever he or she wants.
Anybody who is nearby, can book and take a scooter of choice. All powered through a simple smartphone App for Apple and Android devices.
For those cities where a helmet is required, these are stored in the scooter.
felyx offers shared electric scooters, available for €0,30 per minute. You can start your ride in 3 simple steps. Use the felyx app to locate, reserve, and activate the nearest e-scooter.
Currently the App services various large cities in Netherlands, Belgium and Germany, with big expansion plans.

Oh, it's a good idea to share a scooter. I welcome these shared services because most scooters are parked most of the day.
100% agree; The main reason why private transportation vehicles must become semi-public transportation vehicles imho.
I hope helmets are required in every city and people stop breaking rules. South Asian countries have already seen startups such as these where 2 wheelers are a major mode of transport. Good to see a scooter sharing start-up in Europe as well. Although i still think, with better infra, bikes or ebikes will be more popular in Europe
Sure, bikes are more popular, and maybe this will be the case for the future as well (some countries excepted, Italy is full of scooters for instance). From my travels through Asia, I realise indeed the scooter is hugely popular!
I'm already a fan of Uber and they are keep coming with new exciting things to share economy like this. I want to see this in my country as well.
Nice Hunting!
Hmmm, this is not a service by Uber. Check the product link.
I can see the potential of Felyx to be a big player in South East and South Asian territories where there is a large population density and not enough development or roads. Vietnam for an example face massive traffic congestion. This can be quite stressful for everyone.
Felyx can help reduce traffic congestion while providing people an easy and cheap travel option that is better than public transportation o getting a taxi or an Uber.
I think you have a very good point about Asia. I think Felyx plans to expand further in Europe first, but I certainly hope they will go to other continents as well.
Awesome ONe!
I love the initiative to make delivery environment friendly and It will be helpful to reduce pollution that arises from emission.
Thank YOu and Have a GooD DaY!
Cool service. I think, aside from the residents of the city/ies, this would be very attractive for the tourists, like me, who love to see the city more closely, and a scooter is one of the best options for that, other than walking, which is tiring.
Agree!
This is an excellent solution for this purpose. People now can aware of this to take a scooter by safe on it. I would be grateful to fo it.
Amazing idea to solve the transport issues without creating an impact on environment. I hope the tourists at the place of services will also enjoy this service. It is best for densily populus region of south east Asia
Interestingly, this service is used frequently by locals; I suppose tourist are using them as well, but certainly the locals are using it.
Sharing is caring and it really applies here because more people can use the scooter at reasonable price and it also offer 30 min free ride which is good.
Sharing is Caring indeed! With all 'private'transportation vehicles sharing becomes a must in my view, since these are only used for a small percentage of the day when not sharing.
Like the concept of scooter sharing and this makes transportation easy and convenient. Nice hunt
