Zypps provide a more efficient, sustainable and equitable way for a transport marketplace to work effectively :
The Zypps model is one designed to enable existing public or private transport operators to operate sustainably in a Transport Network Company (TNC) model. Whether you operate as part of an existing fleet of taxi and or bus operations or you operate as an independent private vehicle transport provider on popular TNC marketplaces, the Zypps model complements rather than compete with your existing arrangement...
The Zypps algorithm reduces miles and time without riders by up to 50%. Trips are automatically planned for drivers based on:● Work window● Start location● Start time● Termination locationDrivers select work window of 2, 4, 6, 8 or 10 hours
To get on the Zypps platform as a transport operator, we encourage you to come on the platform together as a set of at least 10 operators in each city. Therefore, if you have a fleet of taxis and or buses, you may bring your entire fleet of taxis and or buses. If you are an individual private vehicle operator, we encourage you to get others to join you as an informal group of a minimum of 10 operators..
Popular TNC marketplaces such as Uber, Lyft, Ola and Didi share at least one thing in common. They all rely on a model that requires in any given area more operators than demand warrants. This means that as an operator on these marketplaces, you will always be underutilized with the net effect that approximately 50% of your time and miles on the road providing your services on these TNC networks are unpaid and costly. These TNC models are inherently designed with greater uncertainty and cost for the transport operators.
The revenue share model with Zypps is very transparent....
Zypps takes a maximum of 20% of gross booking and returns 5% of this to improve driver sustainability.
Zypps also provides a franchise model that allows an entity with 25 or more vehicles within a city/town to begin Zypps operations within that specific city/town and obtain a 5% recurring revenue stream from all rides originating from the city/town.
Social Distancing
ZYPPS is an ideal model to help in responding to the public COVID-19 pandemic health crisis.
Physical distancing: Zypps provide for a very practical approach to limit bottlenecks at bus hubs and boarding platforms. Passengers schedule their rides in advance and smaller buses may be deployed on a more geo fenced approach based on advanced demand information...
Contact tracing technology: Zypps as a digital platform helps to locate potentially contagious individuals and those in contact with them.
Therefore, riders are accommodated through an online/smartphone pre-trip reservation with a pickup and drop off model which provides an interesting approach of how to improve traceability and reduce passenger density while cities reopen. No more need for passengers to wait at bus stations for over 20 minutes because passengers reserve a pickup time online and or through their smartphones, they do not have to arrive earlier than necessary at the stations. They can just show up at the agreed time and or be picked up and or dropped off closer to their homes and or workplaces...
In developing countries, we also provide a closed loop cashless payment system to enable the unbanked and underbanked to engage in the marketplace.
The infrastructure is provided free of cost and Zypps takes only small fraction of the gross bookings of the operator...
Zypps Reduces Vehicle Miles Travel in a TNC Marketplace
In the TNC model, utilization is a function (Fw) of user/driver work. Zypps eliminates P1 from its TNC model. Therefore Zypps achieves greater utilization, using less vehicles to do more leading to greater efficiencies, lower operating costs, higher payout to drivers, less traffic and less carbon emissions...
Other Providers Increase Vehicle Miles Travel in a TNC Marketplace
In these TNC models, utilization is also a function (Fw) of user/driver work. However, these other providers do not eliminate P1 from their TNC models. Therefore these other providers achieve less utilization, using more vehicles to do less leading to lower efficiencies, higher operating costs, lower payout to drivers, more traffic and more carbon emissions...
With Zypps you setup a driver work window in advanced - months, weeks, days, hours or in as little as 60 minutes before your desired time to start driving.
We give the driver the ability to choose when to start driving, where to start driving from, how many driving hours and where to stop driver...
"Zypps premise is to get the desired vehicle/driver to a rider at the specific time needed by the rider. This approach requires the optimum number of vehicles/drivers at an equilibrium ratio of vehicle types to riders. This is a less costly, more equitable and more efficient model for a marketplace."

First-hand experience in notes from my latest trips :
Zypps brings something different to the market
Zypps provide in App tipping even in cashless environments
My the choice to drive for Zypps :
To protect the quality and integrity of the Zypps platform we charge a small driver registration fee
We perform a full background check and screening of all drivers onboarded to the Zypps platform
In some markets that Zypps operate we provide the vehicle to our drivers
