Client Success Story Y-Mobility
Vision meets expertise: Wunder Mobility partners with Y-Mobility to revolutionize Hof's mobility behavior
Y-Mobility is changing the way people move within the southern German city of Hof. Our newly onboarded client operates a kick-scooter sharing business in Hof, Bavaria, particularly in the Franconia region. Y-Mobility starts with 170 scooters on the ground and already have plans to scale this since the first weeks of business were very successful and people adopt the new way of transportation.
For the past two months, one of Wunder Mobility's Senior Account Managers has supported Y-Mobility’s CEO, Ridvan Yücel during the launch phase. Ensuring a successful setup of Ridvan’s sharing business on Wunder Mobilitys platform and supporting Y-Mobility’s vision to scale.
Y-Mobility’s mission & use-case
Driven by a desire to provide the residents of Hof with better mobility options, Ridvan Yücel, a true entrepreneur at heart, founded Y-Mobility. Most residents in Hof rely heavily on cars due to limitations in public transportation, which can be static and unreliable. Recognizing the need for a sustainable alternative, Ridvan saw the perfect opportunity to bring his kick-scooter sharing business to live.
This led to the idea of a free-floating kick-scooter service - Y-Mobility - to launch in Hof and scale it further after a successful launch and first season. Y-Mobility needed a partner that could support the ambitious vision of a tailor made solution for all people in this region. Is it the offering of different pricing options to match different needs, the customization of features and marketing activities or the flexibility for his business to easily scale and adapt to changing business needs - he found all that with Wunder Mobility. Therefore, Wunder was the best option to meet his business needs and help him grow independently.
“From the initial contact to the finalization of the contract, Wunder consistently gave me a great feeling. The communication and cooperation were smooth and efficient. My goal was to establish a partnership based on mutual trust and seamless collaboration, and the smart team at Wunder made this effortlessly possible.” - Ridvan Yücel, Founder & CEO, Y-Mobility
Onboarding & future steps
Before and during the onboarding process, Wunder Mobilitys approach goes beyond the standard procedure to ensure a comprehensive and tailored experience for each client. For Y-Mobility, one of the primary focuses of our account management team was to assist them in achieving their vision by providing suitable pricing options and flexibility. One aspect Y-Mobility appreciated was the flexibility of our system when it comes to setting up different options such as packages or subscriptions helping him to get the most revenue out of his market from the very start. This allowed them to offer competitive and appealing options to their customers and to grow the business just with the launch.
“The onboarding process was well-structured, with clearly defined tasks for each meeting. Despite my lack of experience in this area, I was able to complete the onboarding within six weeks. The platform is highly flexible and offers numerous options for customizing requirements to fit a company's needs. I would definitely recommend the platform.” - Ridvan Yücel, Founder & CEO, Y-Mobility
Looking ahead, Ridvan Yücel, the CEO and Founder of Y-Mobility, is determined to extend his vision well beyond the borders of Hof. His ambitious plans include expanding the reach of Y-Mobility into additional cities within the Frankonia region. With several tenders already secured and a growing presence in the local market, Y-Mobility is establishing itself as a prominent player and local leader in the mobility sector.
Ridvan’s strategic focus is on leveraging this initial success to fuel further growth, aiming to replicate his achievements in new urban areas. The business’s strong network and proven track record in Hof have set a solid foundation for this expansion, positioning Y-Mobility as a local champion in the field.
The Account Management team, alongside the entire Wunder Mobility staff, is eagerly anticipating the fleet’s growth and the rollout of services to new cities. As Y-Mobility’s operations extend further into the region, we look forward to supporting Ridvan in realizing his vision and contributing to the continued success and expansion of his innovative mobility solutions.
