Creating Public Realm

Pollution Reduction

Pin Bike allows Municipalities to engage and reward citizens that choose to use bicycles, carpooling and Public transports as their daily means of transportation.

The solution relies on patented technology that, thanks to the hardware-software kit allows to verify movements and rides with an anti-fraud mechanism.


The solution has three main objectives:
  • Encourage citizens to be aware of sustainable mobility (either with bicycles, electric scooters, local public transport and carpooling);
  • Encourage proximity trade and support local shops (the rides done using Pin Bike devices can be traded with vouchers to be used exclusively with local shops);
  • Provide Public Administrations with a digital tool through which they can monitor and plan traffic and urban mobility, check movements heat maps according to the time of the day, age, time-slots, send surveys and direct messages to citizens.
