Scooter-sharing company Blinkee leaves Budapest



Blinkee is discontinuing its electric scooter-sharing service in Budapest, the mobile phone app-based company announced on Facebook on Friday.

The service was launched six years ago in Budapest and for a while it also operated in Pécs.

According to prices announced in March 2023, it charged Ft 72, Ft 68 and Ft 64 per minute for its 100-, 150-, and 300-minute packages.

No information was revealed about the reasons for leaving the market.

However, the company promised to offer individual rent contacts and to sell part of its scooter fleet in the future.
