Payments in the mobility sector
From topping up your travel card and renting a scooter to a bike on a subscription basis. The mobility sector is changing fast, driven in part by social changes such as the sharing economy. Especially in cities, people don't own a car, bike, or scooter. They rent one.
With Buckaroo's payment solutions, you can process all incoming payments easily and securely. You decide which payment methods your customers can use and how they pay: directly, afterwards, or through a subscription.
The most requested payment solutions:
-
Payment methods such as direct debit, iDEAL, and credit card

-
Subscription Solutions
-
Smart Checkout in your own branding
Mobility as a Service
From ownership to usage: there are two variants here. The consumer pays either per use or per period. Paying per use fits well with today's sharing economy. A scooter, e-step, or car can be used by several people in a single day. The customer often pays through the app, either directly or afterwards via direct debit.
The second form of Mobility as a Service is having a vehicle on a subscription basis. The subscription fee is debited every month, and the consumer can use the vehicle without limits (or with limits). A sharing subscription is also possible, where consumers share their own car with others for a fee.
Buckaroo has a solution for all these new business models and the incoming and outgoing payments that come with them. We don't just handle the transactions. We also set up different flows per target group, let you flexibly upgrade, pause, and stop subscriptions, and automatically send payment reminders by email or text message.
Buckaroo handles the payment process for companies such as Shuttel and Wego Carsharing. From Subscription Services to Credit Management.
Fast checkout on the go, too?
GVB grew revenue from app tickets in the Gappie app from almost €0 to €13.2 million, with 1.5+ million digital transactions per year. Buckaroo handles the payments behind that travel experience.
Collecting parking and mooring fees
A trip into town, and then you have to pay for parking. Fortunately, drivers no longer need to walk to a pay station. There are services that start the parking meter from an app. The parking costs are then automatically debited from the driver's account. To use this, the driver does need to register with a bank account and a direct debit mandate. Buckaroo can easily integrate this underlying payment service into your app.
Buckaroo can help with more than just parking. We also support many businesses in collecting fees such as pitch, mooring, and harbor fees for boats and caravans/campers. This can also be done through an in-app payment, a subscription, or a regular payment request by email.
In this area, Buckaroo serves Yellowbrick, Parkos, P1 Parking, Parkeergemak and Portpay International, among others.

Public transport
Every day, hundreds of thousands of people use public transport. Until a few years ago, they still bought a paper train ticket or even a strip ticket. Now you simply buy your ticket online with iDEAL or your credit card, for example. You can also top up the balance on your travel card online, or have it done automatically through direct debit.
Buckaroo handles the payment process for NS, Arriva, QBuzz and Translink/OV-chipkaart, among others.
Service fees and maintenance subscriptions
A car that broke down? A bike with a flat tire? Lost your key? Fortunately, there's such a thing as roadside assistance. Customers can pay per service or through a maintenance subscription. Or maybe you want to offer your customers a free warranty subscription. Buckaroo can help you manage the accounts receivable for it.
For example, Buckaroo processes the payments and subscriptions of FietsNed. On their website, you can select and buy the parts you need. FietsNed then fits them on location, and they offer several subscription models for roadside assistance.
