For the past three years, we’ve dedicated December to celebrating our users and their stories that made the year special. This means one thing – The Bolt 2022 Wrap-Up has arrived! 🎉 

In this year’s recap, we’re not only revealing your longest and shortest trips, but we’ve also asked our best engineers and finest fortune tellers to identify what your stats say about you. We’ll reveal your mysterious Bolt character for the first time in history. 🔮

But before we get into that, let’s see this year’s highlights.

What a ride! 

Millions of people rode with us in 45+ countries, but one person went the extra mile (or several hundred miles, to be fair) by taking a Bolt ride for 175 mi. 

We don’t know what kind of adventure they embarked on, but if they repeated the same trip every day, it would take them roughly 142 days to travel around the globe. Bolt Roadtrip 2023, anyone?

We discovered some other pro passengers, too. 

Like the person who requested a Bolt ride 2,301 times in 12 months. That’s six times a day – more often than Formula One drivers get to practice. Here’s a champagne shower for Mr. or Miss Boltstappen out there.🍾

They’re a five (out of five)

There are over three million Bolt drivers around the world. 96% got a five-star rating this year, but none received as many five stars as Kwabena – an impressive 2,397. ⭐️

It was a big year for female drivers, too. Compared to 2021, we had 78% more women driving with Bolt. There’s still a long way to go to close the gap, so that will be a big focus for us next year.

Thanks for riding with us this year

Slava Ukraini 

Thanks for riding with us in March. We donated 5% of every Bolt trip in Europe to 19 Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs) supporting Ukraine. Together, we collected €5M (£4.2M). More information about our initiatives can be found here. 

Stay strong Ukraine! 

Giving the gift of mobility to The Bike Project

We believe transport should be reliable and convenient for everyone. That’s why we partnered with the Bike Project earlier this year. A unique charity which takes in second-hand bikes, refurbishes them, and donates them to refugees and asylum seekers in the UK.

Different initiatives were launched this year, including the Bike Project category. For a few days, 50p was automatically donated to the charity for all Bolt trips taken via this special category in London. Thanks to your support and a special donation from Bolt, a total of £34,000 was raised.

Show us your stats, and we’ll tell you who you are

Can a mobility app really give you a character evaluation? 

You tell us. 

We asked our engineers, algorithms, and fortune tellers to devise a Bolt Character Evaluation. For the ultimate moment of truth, open your Bolt app and check out your 2022 Wrap-Up. 

Are you adventurous, or are you kind? Or is it another, an even more accurate personality trait of yours? (We sure hope so.)

Your chance to bag a fair share of Bolt credits 💸

And now, the cherry on top of the Bolt Wrap-Up cake. 

Sharing your favourite wrap-up stats on your Instagram stories can end up with a pretty sweet amount of Bolt credits sent your way. Check our Instagram page @bolt_uk for all the details. Find the T&Cs here. 

Kick off 2023 as someone who’d text their friends “No stress; I can pick you up in a Bolt if you want”. Go on, open the app and get going.
