TIKD, a South Florida tech startup focused on getting rid of consumers’ traffic tickets, is on the move.

TIKD.com, which launched in Miami-Dade in December, resolves traffic tickets, promising a no-points or your-money-back guarantee. Customers get at least 20 percent off their fine amount when they use TIKD, the company says, and the entire process can be done on a smartphone in under two minutes.

The service is now available in Broward County, Florida’s second most-ticketed county after Miami-Dade. Broward drivers receive an average of 500,000 tickets annually resulting in nearly $125 million worth of traffic fines, said TIKD CEO Chris Riley.

In April, the company will expand service to Orlando and the Space Coast, with Tampa and Jacksonville to follow in the summer, Riley said. A national rollout will begin in the fall, Riley said.
