Refreshed HERE WeGo navigation app to introduce new partners and options for people on the go

More partner-enabled options for ride-hailing, hotel booking, ticketing, fuel payments and spatial audio will complement the app’s navigation experience

CES 2022 – HERE Technologies, the leading location data and technology platform, today announced new partners for its free mobile navigation application, HERE WeGo. With additional options beyond pure navigation from A to B, HERE WeGo will offer a comprehensive end-to-end journey experience for people on the go. Starting in the first quarter of 2022, these options will include:

  • Ridesharing with Lyft: route planning will include ridesharing results with Lyft options; upon choosing them, the Lyft app will open with a tap of a button with all information pre-loaded to order the desired ride (in the USA and Canada).
  • Accommodation reservations with Booking.com: when planning a journey, users will be able to seamlessly check property availability, prices, offers, reviews and complete payment via the Booking.com platform, all in a few tabs.
  • Ticketing for inter-city journeys with FlixBus: travel options for journeys between cities will also extend to connections offered by FlixBus; with a tab of a button, users can complete the payment for the desired trip through the FlixBus portal.
  • Fuel payment with ryd: when in need of refueling, users will be able to find fuel stations that allow fast and secure payment with ryd; ryd enables drivers to pay directly through their phone without the need to leave their car and pay at the till (in Austria, Belgium, Germany, the Netherlands and Luxembourg).

“We are excited to introduce new partners to the refreshed HERE WeGo experience. Their individual strengths and capabilities will help to make HERE WeGo a comprehensive trip companion”, said Jørgen Behrens, SVP and Chief Product Officer at HERE Technologies. “As strong believers in a cooperative approach around mobility, we are looking forward to add even more partners and options to HERE WeGo in 2022.”

HERE WeGo is a free navigation app that guides local and global travelers on journeys both familiar and foreign. Built with a privacy-first mindset, users don’t have to create an account and opt-in to data sharing with HERE to calculate routes and navigate with the app.
