Are you tired of haggling with autos & cabs every day? Or feeling helpless about the money drooling out of your pockets incessantly on fuel or surge fares?Well here is the practical solution. ToGo carpool! Commute easily to work or different places by filling the extra seats in your car through this super-duper user friendly ridesharing application !!
We are trying to build trusted communities of people on all routes of your city, so that members can carpool to office daily with other like-minded peers. We create chat groups (resembling WhatsApp groups) for carpooling based on your home-office route.
Steps for finding co-travelers:1) Enter your daily home-office route details in ToGo You will automatically join a chat group of people travelling on your route daily, based on our unique route matching algorithm.2) Post your ride or contact others posting rides in the group chatWhile posting a ride, with just 2 clicks, you can specify your time of departure, and whether you want to give lift/ take lift.
You can join more route based groups besides home-office group, such as home to airport, home to tourist attraction, etc. Even if you are traveling inter-city long distances once in a while, you can become a member of the respective group.
Safety measures:• Avoid sharing ride with someone you don’t know before meeting them in a public place• Utilize the option to travel with colleagues or with co-travelers who have verified their official email ID• You can even opt to share rides with members of same gender• You can ask for co-traveler's ID, driving license & personal references, if required• Anytime if your instinct says that something is not right, you can stop the ride sharing
Etiquette:• Make sure you pay all your expenses that you actually owe to the lift giver• Inform well in advance if there is any change in your schedule, and that you are not carpooling that day.• Decide the pick-up and drop points before you enter into the carpooling gang to avoid any confusions later• Be mindful of loud music, the way you drive, verbal communications, cleanliness, etc.
We ask following in-app permissions.1) Contact: To let you know that a "ToGo user" is calling you when you get call from an unidentified number2) Location: To let you input GPS based current location while entering your journey route3) Storage: To retrieve profile pic from device storage4) Call: To call your travel partner
Carpooling is the need of the hour with rising commute issues such as parking problems, high fuel cost, traffic jams and ever increasing pollution. We were featured in Mid-Day, Hindustan Times and Radio Mirchi for our efforts to build trusted carpooling communities in Mumbai, Gurgaon, Thane, Delhi, Bangalore, Pune and Hyderabad.
What people say about us:
"The cost of a ride via carpooling is probably 1/3rd of Lyft, Ola Share or Uber pool"-a ToGo twitter follower
"In all other carpooling apps like Bla Bla Car, Zify, Tripda, Meru, Ibibo Ryde, Orahi, Lifto I have to send request to car owners one by one. With ToGo I just post in my WhatsApp like group and immediately start getting responses from fellow co-travelers. Very good!" - a ToGo Play Store user
"Delhi odd-even is a good excuse to start carpooling with ToGo!" - a ToGo Play Store user
"I think this is the only app with both intra-city and inter-city carpooling options. Previously used BlaBlaCar for intercity ride sharing" - a ToGo twitter follower
"Cityflow and Shuttl are doing good in shuttl space. Hope you guys rock the carpooling space! Better than Blabla" - a ToGo Play Store user
"Make it a one stop shop. Include traffic updates and other things like Traffline and Ridlr in Mumbai (we will Sir)" - a ToGo Facebook fan
