Bolt is the leading European on-demand transportation platform that’s focused on making urban travel easier, quicker and more reliable.
We believe in affordable journeys and happy drivers. Being smart about how we grow the company and focusing our operations on efficiency allows us to charge drivers lower commissions and pass those savings on to passengers and drivers. This in turn enables us to create tens of thousands of new earning opportunities for drivers and make ride-hail services affordable to more people and helping to make personal cars a thing of the past.
