Bolt Business gives companies a way to manage employee and business rides through Bolt instead of handling each trip as a separate expense.
Employees can use the regular Bolt app, while the company controls billing, travel policies, spending and reporting from a business account. That means fewer receipts for employees and less expense administration for finance teams.

What is Bolt Business?
Bolt Business is Bolt's corporate mobility service for organizations that need to arrange and pay for rides.
Companies can create a business account, add employees, set travel rules and monitor spending. Employees can then use Bolt for business trips while the rides are charged to the company rather than their personal payment method.
It can also be used to arrange rides for customers, clients and guests through Bolt's Ride Booker service.
For companies that regularly pay for taxis, airport transfers or employee transportation, the main advantage is having those trips managed through a single business account instead of individual expense claims.
Who is Bolt Business for?
Bolt Business can work for almost any organization that regularly pays for ground transportation, but some use cases stand out.
Professional services — Consulting, legal and financial firms can use business rides for client meetings, airport transfers and travel between offices.
Technology companies and startups — Teams can give employees access to business rides without asking them to pay personally and submit expenses later.
Hotels and restaurants — Hotels can arrange guest transportation, while restaurants can help employees get home safely after late shifts.
Events and media — Production companies and event teams can coordinate transportation for employees, clients, speakers and other guests.
Healthcare organizations — Hospitals and clinics can arrange transportation for patients who need to get to appointments.
If business travel regularly ends up on employee credit cards, Bolt Business is designed to move that spending into a company-managed system.
Bolt Business features
1. Business dashboard
Administrators can manage employees, business rides, spending and travel settings from a central account.
Instead of collecting information from individual employees, finance and operations teams can see business travel activity in one place.
2. Centralized invoicing
Business rides can be consolidated into company billing rather than handled as separate employee expenses.
This can reduce the amount of time finance teams spend collecting receipts and matching individual taxi journeys to expense reports.
3. Travel policies and spending controls
Companies can establish rules around business travel and control how employees use their business profiles.
For example, an organization may restrict business rides to certain circumstances or set limits around company-funded travel.
4. Work Profile
Employees don't need a second ride-hailing app for business trips.
Bolt's Work Profile allows users to switch between personal and business travel within the Bolt app. A personal journey can remain personal, while a trip to a customer or office can be charged to the company's business account.
5. Ride Booker
Ride Booker is useful when the passenger isn't the person arranging the trip.
A company administrator can arrange transportation for a guest or customer, with the relevant ride information sent to the passenger.
This makes the feature particularly useful for hotels, events, client visits and airport transfers.
6. Expense integrations
Bolt Business supports integrations with expense and accounting platforms including SAP Concur, Expensify, Zoho and Rydoo.
For companies already using one of these systems, connecting business travel with their existing expense workflow can reduce manual data entry.
The Bolt Work Profile
The Work Profile is one of the more practical parts of Bolt Business because employees can keep personal and company travel in the same app.
For example, an employee might take a personal Bolt ride home in the evening and use a business profile the following morning to travel to a client meeting.
The employee selects the appropriate profile before booking. The business ride is then associated with the company's account rather than the employee's personal payment method.
There is no need to maintain a separate ride-hailing application just for work travel.
Bolt Business invoicing and expense management
For finance teams, centralized billing is arguably the biggest benefit.
Without a business account, an employee may pay for a taxi personally, save the receipt, submit an expense and wait for reimbursement. Multiply that process across dozens or hundreds of employees and it quickly becomes administrative work.
Bolt Business moves those rides into the company's business billing workflow.
Business trips can be collected into company invoices, while integrations with platforms such as SAP Concur, Expensify, Zoho and Rydoo can help connect transportation expenses with the systems a company already uses.
The result is a clearer record of business travel spending and fewer individual expense claims to process.
How to get started with Bolt Business
Getting started generally involves creating a business account, configuring company billing and travel settings, and inviting employees to use the service.
Once employees have access to the business profile, they can select it when booking eligible work trips.
If you're considering Bolt Business for your company, it's worth checking the available features and coverage for your location before rolling it out across the entire organization.

Bolt Business availability
Bolt doesn't operate in every country or city, so availability should be checked before signing up.
The service has a significant presence across Europe and operates in a number of markets in Africa and other regions. Bolt is not currently available in the United States, so companies with US-based employees should consider alternative providers for those locations.
Coverage can also vary between cities. Check availability for the specific locations where your employees, customers or guests will use the service.
Is Bolt Business worth using?
Bolt Business makes the most sense for companies where transportation is a regular business expense.
If employees occasionally take a taxi and expense it afterward, the benefit may be relatively small. For organizations managing frequent airport transfers, client visits, employee transportation or event travel, centralized billing and policy controls can make the service considerably more useful.
The strongest reason to consider Bolt Business is simple: it moves business rides from individual employee expenses into a company-managed travel system.
