The concept of ride sharing is starting to spread around big cities in Indonesia. Many were inspired from there  to make similar services or other innovations. Form of innovation from the ride sharing concept invasion is presented by Migo in Surabaya. With digital technology, Migo provides e-bike rental service.

Migo provides approximately 100 points of substation scattered around Surabaya. On these substations, users can rent and return their bikes. For the rent cost, Migo set it based on kilometers at affordable prices to the public.

Migo applies Rp2,000 base rate for the first 2 kilometres. Afterwards, users will be charged Rp.500 per kilometre. Whereas, waiting or stopping charges are set to Rp500 per 15 minutes. Waiting or stopping charges are valid from 06.00 to 20.00.
