Case Study: Leading Transportation Robotics Company achieves 170,000 active scooter rentals across 12 cities with Altoros

A Mobile App for Renting Electric Scooters with 170,000 Active Users

A transportation robotics company based in the USA turned to Altoros to develop iOS and Android mobile apps for renting its electric scooters across 12 cities. The customer needed real‑time handling of dozens to hundreds of city geofenced zones, faster payment processing (third‑party billing could take up to 3 minutes), reliable age verification, and protection against rentals by users with insufficient funds.

Altoros built native Android and iOS apps integrating Jumio for ID checks and Stripe for payments, optimized geofence loading to show zones in under a second, pushed payment verification to the background to cut maximum unlock wait from ~3 minutes to 50 seconds, and added an in‑app wallet to prevent fraud. The result: nearly 170,000 active users (127,000 Android and 42,000 iOS) across 12 cities, fewer rides into restricted/low‑speed areas, and reduced payment‑related delays — all delivered by Altoros.
