Riding

Scan. Ride. Park.

Information:
The ride happens in the app
A MASHI electric scooter in white with green livery, the M mark on the stem and 'Move your way' on the deck.

The ride

Four steps.

  1. Step 1

    Find a scooter.

    The map shows what is near you and how much battery it has.

  2. Step 2

    Scan to unlock.

    Point your phone at the QR code on the stem.

  3. Step 3

    Stay inside the service area.

    Roads and marked lanes only, never pavements.

  4. Step 4

    Park, then end the trip.

    Finish in a marked parking zone, upright and clear of doorways. The trip charges until you end it in the app.

Zones

Four kinds of zone.

  • Service area

    Trips start and end inside it.

  • Parking zones

    The only place a trip may end.

  • Slow zones

    The scooter caps its own speed.

  • No-ride zones

    Dismount and push.
