The partnership is mobilizing people in busy locations
Udrive, the dedicated pay-per-minute car rental platform, has partnered with NaviPay, the digital parking platform, to provide Udrive users access to free exclusive parking facilities in key locations across the city.
The partnership will contribute to convenient access to high-traffic areas across the city, promoting a digital, seamless and forward-thinking approach to increasing accessibility to areas that normally experience challenges with traffic and parking facilities.
In a market where an increased supply of vehicles has been Udrive’s primary focus for its avid customer base, the homegrown start-up is continuing to diversify its fleet and increase availability for car-sharing in the UAE through partnerships with homegrown SMEs like NaviPay.
The start-up stands at 1,000 cars in its fleet in the UAE with 380,000 registered users and a total of 2.4 million trips.
Udrive’s updated parking technology has opened access to new parking facilities by integrating its vehicles with NaviPay’s digital parking facilities. Users need only approach the NaviPay parking lot barrier with a Udrive vehicle for automatic free entry and exit.
“Seamless customer experience and convenience are at the core of our focus, we are excited to better connect high-traffic communities without the friction of searching for parking with NaviPay,” remarked Nicholas Watson, Co-founder and CEO, Udrive.
“Making NaviPay’s hotspots for Udrive customers will strengthen our positive impact to lower carbon emissions by enhancing the convenience of car sharing for residents and tourists to Dubai,” commented Marek Stawinski, Founder and CEO, NaviPay.
