About Ryd
An in-car payment system that allows users to pay for fuel from their vehicle via a mobile application or the car's infotainment system.
The company partners with a network of gas stations, including major brands like Aral, Esso, HEM, and Q1, enabling customers to find participating locations, refuel, and pay directly from the app. This streamlines the fueling process by eliminating the need to go inside the station to pay.
The service is available for various vehicle types, including fuel, hybrid, and electric cars, and is free to use without hidden costs or advertisements. The platform utilizes encrypted SSL connections to ensure data security.
