Bolt Plus: Your Key to Affordable Rides in Malta
Uber or Lyft? Not in Malta. Meet Bolt Plus, the local breakthrough.
Picture this: You’re standing at the bustling Republic Street in Valletta, the sun setting behind the Grandmaster’s Palace, and you need a ride. You whip out your phone, open the Bolt app, and with a tap, you’ve booked a ride that’s not just quick and reliable, but also comes with a sweet membership perk. Welcome to the world of Bolt Plus, Malta’s best-value membership that’s got locals and tourists alike raving.
What’s the buzz about Bolt Plus?
Bolt Plus, launched in Malta last year, is a membership program that offers users exclusive benefits at an affordable price. For just €9.99 a month or €99.99 a year, you get access to a range of perks that make your ride-hailing experience not just convenient, but also cost-effective and enjoyable.
So, what’s in it for me?
First off, you get 15% off every Bolt ride. Yes, you read that right. Every time you book a ride, whether it’s a quick hop to the Three Cities or a late-night trip home from Paceville, you’re saving money. But Bolt Plus is more than just discounts. It’s about perks that make your life easier.
With Bolt Plus, you get priority access to cars, which means shorter wait times. No more standing around, tapping your foot, and checking your watch. You also get free cancellation up to 5 minutes before your ride, which comes in handy when plans change at the last minute. And if you’re a frequent flyer, you’ll love the free airport rides. Bolt Plus members get two free rides to and from Malta International Airport every month.
But is it worth it?
Let’s do the math. If you’re a regular Bolt user, the answer is a resounding yes. Even if you take just a few rides a month, the 15% discount alone can add up to significant savings. And when you factor in the other perks, like priority access and free airport rides, it’s a no-brainer.
But don’t just take our word for it. Ask around. From the young professional commuting to Msida every day to the tourist exploring the island’s hidden gems, everyone’s got a Bolt Plus story to tell. They’ll tell you about the time they got to the airport in record time, or how they saved enough to treat themselves to a nice dinner at one of Valletta’s many restaurants.
How do I sign up?
Signing up for Bolt Plus is easy. Just open the Bolt app, tap on the profile icon, and select ‘Bolt Plus’. Choose your plan, and you’re ready to go. And the best part? You can cancel anytime. No strings attached.
So, the next time you’re standing on Republic Street, or anywhere else on the island, remember, you’ve got options. You can wait for a bus, hail a taxi, or you can join the Bolt Plus revolution. The choice is yours.
