About Baly

Baly.iq is a comprehensive mobile application based in Iraq that offers a variety of services including car booking, food delivery, and other diverse services such as bike taxi and delivery of items through Baly Box. The startup is part of the Rocket Internet group, a European company based in Berlin that assists in building and supporting startups in the technology and internet sectors.

The idea for the application began in early 2021 with the development of an app for drivers and passengers, in addition to a food delivery service. Users can easily select their favorite restaurant, add meals to their shopping cart, and enjoy their meal at their convenience. The app's user-friendly interface and diverse services make it a one-stop solution for many everyday needs.

Baly.iq operates in the Iraqi market, serving a wide range of clients from individuals needing a ride or food delivery, to businesses requiring delivery services. The business model is based on providing a platform that connects service providers (drivers, restaurants) with consumers. The company makes money by charging a commission on each transaction made through the platform.

In summary, Baly.iq is a versatile mobile application offering a range of services from transportation to food delivery, operating in the Iraqi market, and backed by a reputable European tech company.
