About The Company

If you see technology as there to smooth your path in life, our team does too: Your Path, Our Journey.

We believe in people who transform their paths through technology. Technology that connects people who are good at what they do and which practices diversity to create and share those paths that we (as yet!) do not even know about. Our journey is in the smile of every talented person who brings revolution to the world from Brazil - whether with in-app transportation (99) or digital payments (99Pay).

To make life easier for millions of people every day, we are in the driving seat as part of DiDi Chuxing, the world's largest transport, and convenient platform. And so, we can say, with great pride, that we are pioneers in creating solutions, starting in Brazil, that grow in scale and have positive impacts in a range of other countries.

Whether creating projects from scratch or continually improving our solutions, we like challenges that give us butterflies, and that's why we work with intensity, at a fast pace, with respect, collaboration, and partnership. On this journey, we also create learning and strengthen ourselves in diversity as a fundamental aspect that makes us stand out for our growth day after day.
