The revenue model is a SaaS model focused on B2B. They aim to serve organizations, spanning across a wide range from private companies to governmental institutions to offer their services.

They make use of a hybrid system, consisting of a monthly subscription fee based on the size of the company and a small service charge for the transactions between passengers and drivers. Users split the costs for fuel, which they put at 14 cents per kilometer. From this exchange, they charge a 20% service fee which will cover transaction costs and create daily cash flow. Since this cash flow is dependent on the use and therefore fluctuates between weekdays & weekends as well as the holiday months, they also charge companies a monthly subscription fee for our services and employee access to the application.

For subscribing organisations, they work with a three tiered subscription model, depending on the level of service a company wants to receive. Through this hybrid model the company can gain stable monthly returns as well as direct benefits from high usage of the app.

This company’s application is the easiest way to cut down on company emissions, by activating the workforce to tackle this challenge as a team. They stimulate everyone to contribute to CO2 reductions in their own way, while at the same time helping to save on fuel & parking expenses. No tangible assets needed & no waste created, they simply make better use of rides that would anyway happen.
