With this proposal, Renfe wants user-centric mobility to become a comprehensive mobility operator. The goal, to be present in the entire journey and offer all the services that users need on their door-to-door journeys.

This application will allow, among other aspects, to unify payments of various modes of transport into a single ticket, as well as the contracting of other services such as electric scooters, public bikes, taxis or Cabify. Renfe indicates that work is being done not only to make services more efficient, but also to become the centre of a logistics chain and a more sustainable mobility system.
