Hoppy

What Hoppy does

Hoppy (operating through Hoppsharing BV in Belgium, Hoppylectrico S.L. in Spain, and Hoppy Mobility Limited in Gibraltar) is a European shared electric-mobility operator founded in 2019 and headquartered in Destelbergen, Belgium. The company runs a fleet of classic bikes, e-bikes, e-scooters, e-mopeds, and electric golf carts in cities across Belgium, Spain, Greece, and Gibraltar. Riders access vehicles through a self-serve iOS and Android app that supports vehicle discovery, reservation, QR-code activation, GPS tracking, geofence-based no-ride enforcement, and Google Maps-powered navigation. Pricing is usage-based with a maximum 24-hour charge of €361 (or £361 in Gibraltar), supplemented by monthly auto-renewing subscriptions and automatic top-ups.

The business is monetized primarily through per-ride fees and recurring subscriptions distributed entirely through the mobile app and website, with no field sales force. Go-to-market is product-led growth: users discover the service via app stores, social media (Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn), a Tell-A-Friend referral program, and a six-language website (EN, NL, FR, ES, DE, EL). The company maintains partnerships with Google for maps integration and with local insurance providers such as FIATC for mobility scooter coverage. Hoppy has raised approximately $6.24M across six funding rounds between June 2020 and May 2023, employs 51-100 people, and operates without a disclosed external parent company or institutional investor. Its strategic posture emphasizes incremental multi-country expansion, fleet diversification, and regulatory-compliant urban mobility rather than aggressive scale.
