Next step is to connect the scooter with your server, we will guide you how to do it. 
 
 
12.Why Gofunow scooter and software is so expensive?
 
If the scooter is not good enough, you have to do maintenance all the time. 
If the software is immature and unstable, it will give users bad experiences. 
A qualified scooter can work 24 hours and make money for you. 
We are not selling you a scooter, we are selling you a money machine. 
When you have it, you will be a service provider, like telecom company, everyone 
will pay you once they use your service. 
The software was developed several years with many hours a day and more than 
USD500,000 to spend on it. If you want to develop a software from scratch, you 
also need 6-12months with a team of 3 engineers. When your software is done, the 
market and timing is gone.
 
 
13.Can Gofunow make the scooter cheaper and affordable?
 
Yes. we can. If the scooter uses low-cost battery, in-efficient motor, of course it will 
be CHEAP. Low cost means low performance and you need to charge every 2 
hours. Once the scooter is damaged you need to repair frequently. 
From our knowledge, the scooter must be very strong and well-built and durable. 
Because most users are rough, violent and treat the public scooters badly. 
Gofunow sharing scooters are specially designed for Ride-share solution only. 
Main frame can use 2 years and battery can work more than 1 year even 10 hours 
working a day. We paid double cost for the frame, motor and best quality of battery. 
And we spent hours to test it before shipping from our factory. 
 
 
14.How to charge the battery?
 
You can set up fixed location for return and each location is equipped with charging port. When returned, the scooter must be connected with charger. Otherwise, the rental will not stop and still calculate the cost. So user will be forced to charge for you. we have swappable battery, one worker can take 50 batteries to replace. 
 
 
15.How to protect scooters from being stolen?
 
We have GPS Tracking system and each scooter is built-in a GPS tracking device that is powered by battery inside scooter. Once the scooter is lost, the tracking platform can show its location and you can find it back.
 
GPS
 
16.Why have to send Gofunow the Micro Sim Card?
1. Our scooter is designed for waterproof, especially the head cover. SIM Card is put inside the head cover and closed by ultrasonic sealing which is waterproof. There is a risk of being damaged if people open the IOT box without right tool or proper guidance. 
2. We put your local SIM Card into our iOT module and test it with our devices. To make sure it can work with our server without any problem, so that it can work well at your end. 
3. Micro SIM card needs to be provided by customers for each IOT module in bulk. It takes time and skills to do assembly, customers would be happy to let us factory do the job. 
4. SIM card must be activated with global roaming and comes with APN code. APN is "access point of name", must be provided by your 2G/4G network operator.
