Odesa has become the first city in Ukraine to launch automated e-scooter rental from Kiwi, and the service is due to launch in Kyiv this weekend. This is reported by Mayak.
To use the rental service, you need to download the Kiwi app and register. After that — you need to top up your account balance.
In the app you can search for a scooter nearby, as they will not be tied to specific points. They can be left at any point in the center within the designated zone.
The locations of all available vehicles will be shown on the map. To unlock the selected scooter, you will need to scan the QR code on the handlebars. The unlock fee is 10 hryvnias, and each minute of riding — 3 hryvnias.
After the rental ends, you need to mark in the app that you have finished the ride and photograph the scooter.
The service plans to expand to other cities in Ukraine later, but no exact dates have been announced yet.
