St. Petersburg became the first city in Russia to launch a technology for determining trips for two. It began working on all scooters of the Whoosh service. To estimate the number of people on a scooter, the technology analyzes more than 50 data parameters and uses machine learning algorithms.

We block mainly for damaging scooters or rides by minors (including their rides in pairs)."

"As for new measures, in the future we plan to introduce identification by bank IDs. This will allow us to identify underage users using bank card data and immediately block their access to the service. From the very beginning, we have been an 18+ service, the rule "only an adult user can rent a Whoosh scooter" is still in effect in 2024. According to our statistics, we see that most trips by minors are transfer of control on behalf of parents, older brothers/sisters or friends. Therefore, it is important to influence the consciousness of city residents and remind them of responsibility," said a representative of the Whoosh press service.
