Moroccan startup GoSwap, specialized in automated battery exchange solutions for electric scooters, announces its first fundraising with Azur Innovation Fund, for an amount exceeding 20 million dirhams (approximately 2.1 million USD). This operation marks a strategic turning point for the company, which aims to accelerate the deployment of its exchange station network and make electric mobility more accessible in major Moroccan cities.
The investment will allow GoSwap to strengthen its existing network in Casablanca, where 20 exchange cabinets are already operational at Petrom, Shell stations, and CashPlus agencies. It will also support expansion to other cities in the Kingdom and the integration of new electric motorcycle models compatible with the GoSwap solution.
Thanks to this fundraising, GoSwap plans to rapidly expand its station network to Casablanca, Marrakech, and beyond, contributing to national efforts for green and sustainable urban mobility.
According to the information note published on March 25, 2026, this model meets a growing need in many African cities, where two-wheelers are essential for daily mobility. Faced with rapid urbanization, insufficient public transport, and the rise of delivery services, electric scooters are a key lever to reduce costs and emissions in urban areas.
GoSwap offers an innovative automatic battery exchange system for electric motorcycles. Users can replace a depleted battery with a full one in less than 10 seconds, eliminating constraints related to charging and reducing travel costs by up to 60% compared to a traditional thermal motorcycle.
