Taranto unveils TarantoGO digital platform to integrate tourism, commerce and city services

Taranto, Italy, has launched TarantoGO, a free digital ecosystem created by Crypteia S.r.l. The mobile app aggregates interactive maps, itineraries, points of interest, events, accommodation, restaurants, mobility options and accessibility information. It also includes ShoppingGO, a digital card that offers promotions, allows users to collect GoPoints and discover local businesses. An Info Point has been set up at the cruise‑terminal of the Port of Taranto for the 2026 cruise season to assist visitors in using the platform and navigating the city. CEO Angelo Candelli said the aim is to move beyond a traditional tourist app and build an infrastructure that connects the entire territory, turning each smartphone into a digital information point and each participating business into a node of the city network.
