Sustainable mobility only works if it is widespread, accessible and easy to use. That is why we decided to take an important step: integrating Pikyrent into Wetaxi, one of Italy’s leading MaaS operators. It is also a milestone: Pikyrent is the first scooter sharing operator to be available on Wetaxi.
Mobility as a Service (MaaS) platforms combine public transport, shared mobility and private services in a single app, allowing users to plan, book and pay for all their journeys with ease, without barriers or complications. From this perspective, integrating our fleets and sharing services into a MaaS ecosystem is not just a technological choice: it is a key strategy for the growth of shared mobility. Shared mobility, in fact, does not grow simply by increasing the number of available vehicles; what is increasingly needed is a network that makes the service visible, easy to use and an integral part of people’s daily journeys.
When users plan a trip through a MaaS app, they can quickly compare all the available options and choose the most efficient, affordable and sustainable way to travel. This has a concrete effect: people are more likely to choose a shared scooter or car instead of a private car. In other words, working with a MaaS operator means expanding demand, making shared mobility accessible to a much wider audience and moving beyond the niche, often associated with digital-savvy young people or users already familiar with the service.
For us, this collaboration means offering more options to more users, but above all helping to build a smarter, more cooperative urban system, where every player — public or private — works together to reduce traffic, emissions and environmental impact, improving the quality of life in our cities.
We chose Wetaxi because it is one of the few MaaS operators active in all the cities where we operate – Bari, Turin and Milan – giving us extensive coverage to help shared mobility grow. But our choice goes beyond geographical presence. With Wetaxi we share the same vision: making urban mobility public, accessible, complementary to local public transport (LPT) and sustainable, offering practical solutions for anyone who wants to get around the city in a smart, affordable and responsible way. Wetaxi brings together taxis, car sharing, bike sharing and private services in a single ecosystem, simplifying the travel experience and helping citizens make more sustainable choices with a single click.
Thanks to integration with MaaS platforms, shared mobility is moving beyond the boundaries of a niche phenomenon. It is no longer a service aimed only at a young, digital, medium-to-high-income audience, but becomes cross-cutting, inclusive and within everyone’s reach. Integrating with Wetaxi allows us to bring our vehicles into people’s daily journeys, making it simpler and more natural to choose a shared solution over a private car. This is our vision: a form of mobility in which sharing and public transport work together, where citizens can choose the right and most convenient vehicle at any moment, and where sustainability, efficiency and simplicity become part of everyday life.
With Wetaxi, Pikyrent enters a new phase: building a connected, smart and sustainable mobility ecosystem, in which shared mobility is no longer an alternative, but a conscious choice that is accessible to everyone.
