Zoomcar Launches Unified App for Guests and Hosts, Enhancing User Experience and Streamlining Operations
Wednesday, August 14, 2024
BENGALURU, India, Aug. 6, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Zoomcar, Zoomcar Holdings, Inc. ('Zoomcar' or the 'Company') (NASDAQ: ZCAR), the NASDAQ-listed leading marketplace for self-drive car sharing, has launched a new unified app designed to enhance the car sharing experience for both Guests and Hosts. This app replaces the previous two-app system, streamlining operations and introducing over 10 feature upgrades aimed at boosting platform growth and user satisfaction.
Key Features and Enhancements:
-- Unified App Experience: Previously, Zoomcar operated two separate apps:
one for Guests to book cars and another for Hosts to manage their car
listings. The new app combines these functionalities, allowing users to
seamlessly switch between booking cars as Guests and managing their
listings as Hosts. This strategic move caters to the significant overlap
where over 40% of Guests also own cars.
-- Enhanced Guest Features: Guests will benefit from a faster, smoother
booking process with a catalog featuring top-rated cars and a new 'Guest
Favourites' section highlighting frequently booked and highly rated
cars. This addition aims to facilitate more reliable car selections
based on trustworthy reviews.
-- Improved Host Controls: Hosts now have greater control over their car
listings. They can manage multiple cars in a single tab, monitor their
cars' real-time rankings against local competition, and set preferences
such as minimum booking durations and automatic listing extensions. New
Hosts can also opt for GPS tracker and keyless entry device
installations upon signing up.
Hiroshi Nishijima, CEO of Zoomcar stated, "We've been spending a lot of time listening & meeting with our Hosts in the past few months and our unified app has been meticulously designed to provide far more controls to our Hosts and encourage car sharing as a growing business in India. We are obsessed with our customers' experience and the timing of the launch fits perfectly as we continue to see rising high demand for the Independence Day long weekend."
Vishal Ramrakhyani, Head of Engineering at Zoomcar added, "Our engineering & product teams dedicated their time in understanding customer feedback and developed a unified Zoomcar app that integrates all functionalities required by both Guests and Hosts. The new features, such as 'Guest Favourites' and easy car listing control for Hosts, are designed to make the platform more intuitive and user-friendly."
In their annual report for fiscal year ending March 2024, Zoomcar reported improvement in their platform's average trip rating to 4.66 on a 5 point scale along with an increase in net revenue by 12% from $8.83 million to $9.90 million. Their unified app initiative reflects Zoomcar's commitment to continuously improving its services and ensuring that both Guests and Hosts enjoy a superior experience under its new leadership team.
To experience their all new app, download the Zoomcar app from the App Store or Google Play Store.
