New customer segment for vehicle fleet owners - tourist destinations

ATOM Mobility is introducing a new way for users to start their rental journey: the Web-booker widget 🗓️

With this tool, users can book a car (or other vehicle) directly from merchant's website without first downloading the rider app. It creates a smoother entry point for new users while keeping the app central for payments, ID verification, and ride management.

How it works

✅ A dedicated booking link for every merchant
✅ Customers choose area, vehicle, and rental period → confirm booking in seconds
✅ Widget syncs bookings into system automatically
✅ After booking, a QR code + App Store / Google Play links are shown so users can continue in the app
✅ In the mobile app, users finalize payment and ID/driver’s license verification before starting the trip

🎨 The widget matches app’s primary color for a seamless, branded look.
📊 Every booking now shows its Source – App, Web-booker, Dashboard, or API.

Why it matters

Many successful digital rental and mobility platforms combine web and app booking flows to maximize conversion.

Take Turo for example:

• Customers browsing online can instantly reserve a car on turo.com.
• But to unlock the car, upload their driver’s license, and manage the trip, they switch to the dedicated mobile app.
• This dual flow lowers friction for new users while keeping security and payments centralized in the app.

New ATOM Web-booker works the same way - creating an easy on-ramp from website, while letting the app handle verification and payments.

This feature also aligns with the broader industry evolution we covered in Traditional Car Rental vs Peer-to-Peer Car Sharing vs On-demand Car Sharing artticle. As booking models diversify, offering multiple access points - web + app + api – is becoming a standard expectation from customers.

Market context

The global car-sharing market (including peer-to-peer sharing) is projected to reach USD 28.7 billion by 2030, growing from USD 11.5 billion in 2025 at 20% annual growth rate, with digital-first players outpacing traditional operators. One of the biggest success drivers? Reducing onboarding friction and providing automated processes.

• Majority of new customers discover rental brands online before downloading an app.
• Peer-to-peer platforms like Turo and Getaround already leverage web-based flows to capture demand at the discovery stage.
• Traditional operators are also moving to hybrid web+app models to compete with on-demand mobility startups.

The message is clear: giving customers multiple, seamless entry points directly impacts conversion and utilization.

Enabled by default

The Web-booker is enabled by default for all ATOM Mobility digital rental merchants for free. Just place the booking button on your website, and your customers are ready to go.

The ride-hailing market is always changing. From Latin America to Eastern Europe, platforms like inDrive have popularized a new norm: letting riders suggest what they want to pay. Now, in response to this growing global trend, ATOM Mobility is proud to introduce: Offer your price – a fully configurable pricing feature built right into your rider app.

💡How It works

Available on all ride-hail projects, this feature lets riders propose a price – higher or lower than the default fare – within operator-set limits. Drivers can then accept or decline based on the offer.

Here’s how it reshapes the experience:

In the Rider app:

• A new "Offer your price" button appears when selecting a vehicle class.
• Riders can slide or tap “+/-” buttons to adjust price:
  • e.g. +30% to get a faster ride 🟢
  • or -10% to save on a flexible trip 🔵
• For scheduled rides, this feature is disabled to keep things predictable.

Smart logic behind the slider:

Your admin dashboard defines the limits – say, up to +500% from regular price and down to -30% – and the app calculates step sizes automatically:

• +500% limit → 1 step = 5%
• +100% limit → 1 step = 1%
• +200% limit → 1 step = 2%

Slider position adapts dynamically, depending on your defined range. And yes – the button color and style can be customized to match your brand 🎨.

On the operator dashboard:

You’ll find complete control and clarity:

• Enable/disable the feature per vehicle class
• Set custom % limits for price increase/decrease
• Price card, exports and ride activity logs are all updated with the adjusted ride price
• New ride status - Ride requested (adjusted ride price) for transparency in reporting

What drivers see:

In the driver app:

• Price offers are marked clearly (e.g. 🔻 "Discount requested" or 🔺 "Extra fee offered");
• Final earnings are adjusted accordingly and logged in driver stats.

Who's already doing this – and winning?

Real-world companies are already proving that rider-defined pricing works:

🚘 inDrive (LATAM, Africa, Asia)
Now one of the top global ride-hailing players outside the U.S. (over 200M downloads, active in 700+ cities across 45+ countries), inDrive built its brand around rider-negotiated pricing. It helps them stand out in price-sensitive markets and win over both drivers and passengers with more transparent pricing dynamics.

🚖 Comin (France)
A local success story, Comin has embraced flexible rider pricing to gain traction in several French cities (onboarded 6,000+ drivers). The feature gives them an edge against larger platforms, offering more freedom for users and better utilization for drivers.

These examples show that letting riders bid their price isn’t just a gimmick – it’s a growth strategy.

From our previosu blog “How to Find Your Niche in the Ride-Hail Market”, we saw how localisation and user control drive loyalty and conversion.

This new pricing flexibility supports:

• Emerging markets with income-sensitive riders
• Driver shortages, where riders can tip in real-time
• Brand positioning, letting you stand apart from competition
