ZipGo App – A Perfect Companion for Daily Commute

After Ola and Uber if anything that can simplify the problem of commuting in a city like Bengaluru, it is going to be ZipGo for sure. The impressive shuttle AC bus service provided by ZipGo app is simply amazing. At a cost of Rs. 29, this prolific app provides a convenient, comfortable and cost effective way of public transport and targets to solve city’s deteriorating traffic situation. We reviewed the app at the first place, and found it to be pretty slick and easy to use. It offers an ideal ecosystem for smartphones users and is currently on the way to build a smart mass transport system in Bangalore as well as in other parts of the world. The complete review of this app has been featured below-

Smooth and easy to use interface

The interface of ZipGo is very clean and easy to use. As soon as you’ll create a new account, you’ll get a signup bonus of Rs. 100 in your ZipGo wallet. The app covers major parts of Bengaluru city and you can pick any location starting from Bannerghatta Road to Koramangala. The home screen of the app gives the option to customize different routes, and highlights available ZipGo buses for that particular route which you have selected. The order of available buses for that route goes from earliest available bus to the bus available in next three as well. The slide-in menu from the left adds a bunch of options for accessing history, messages, inviting friends, giving feedback, and checking ZipGo wallet. By inviting friends, existing users get additional Rs. 100 as a referral bonus from ZipGo.

Performance

As for performance, ZipGo is really slick and smooth. The app features a simplified interface and runs pretty well without any lags or issues. The app utilizes Google Maps as its base, but the technical team keeps on creating its own maps in the backend. In order to create a successful bus shuttle service, ZipGo needed something more than having an idea of which areas will have traffic. This is why, the app uses the information sent in by buses and generates information on what real-time traffic situation is supposed to be at different locations.

As soon as a particular route is selected, the backend team figures out demographics and population density of the region for executing the move. Different stops for the shuttle service are also selected on the basis of a study conducted by the ZipGo team.

After launching the app, when you’ll select a particular route, the app shows all buses that are available and highlights the number seats available on each bus as well. You can reserve your seat by paying from wallet, and can keep a track of the bus and the route which it takes. For payments, this app currently comes integrated with PayTM, but looks like they’ll soon move into other payment gateways as well.

Cost effective way to travel

Local travelling in Bengaluru has been simplified with this app. If you’ll look into the cost of bus service available from Monday to Friday on all routes, you’ll see extremely impressive prices, same as the cost of regular government buses. They provide a very comfortable and convenient way to travel in AC buses at a very competitive price tag.

So this was all about ZipGo. This powerful app for daily commute offers an ideal ecosystem for travelling in a smarter and cost effective way. With a service like ZipGo, why travel in expensive cabs when you can have the same pleasure of travelling at a much lower price bracket.
