Strategic collaboration brings accurate toll calculations to Bolt drivers and riders in Malaysia, Portugal and beyond.
TALLINN, Estonia, July 23, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Bolt, one of Europe’s leading mobility platforms, and Silicon Valley tech pioneer MapUp today announced their strategic partnership to transform how drivers and riders navigate toll roads with transparent pricing. Following the successful completion of one year of operations in Malaysia, and Portugal, Bolt has extended its partnership with MapUp across all these markets, underscoring the value of toll transparency in enhancing rider and driver satisfaction.
This partnership began with Bolt’s implementation of automated tolls from MapUp’s TollTally SDK in Malaysia in November 2024. MapUp’s TollTally SDK now powers accurate toll calculations for upfront pricing and driver reimbursements across Malaysia, and Portugal.
“Transparent pricing is fundamental to Bolt’s mission of providing reliable, affordable transportation,” said Ilya Rybin, Product Manager at Bolt. “By incorporating MapUp’s toll intelligence solutions across some of our markets, we’re able to offer drivers and riders clarity on exactly how toll costs factor into the total ride price. In certain markets, providing this transparency helped us decrease the number of toll-related customer tickets by 30%, and fewer tickets for us means lower costs to process these complaints, and, of course, happier riders and drivers.”
The partnership leverages MapUp’s TollTally SDK to provide real-time toll information that enables:
Accurate upfront pricing that includes toll costs for ridersPrecise reimbursement for toll expenses incurred by driversReduced fare disputes and customer support requestsEnhanced overall ride experience through pricing transparency
“Bolt shares our vision of bringing toll cost transparency to mobility services worldwide,” said Maneesh Mahlawat, CTO at MapUp. “Our TollTally SDK empowers drivers and riders to make informed decisions about their routes and associated costs. We’re excited to partner with Bolt as they operate in multiple markets, ensuring that toll transparency remains a core part of their service offering.”
This partnership represents both companies’ commitment to enhancing the rideshare experience through technological innovation. As Bolt continues its growth trajectory, the partnership with MapUp will help maintain consistent toll pricing and reimbursement practices across its global operations.
