In March of 2019,
RIDE Solutions, the region’s commuter services agency, launched a new app-based ridematching service that allowed commuters across Central and Southwest Virginia to instantly find carpool partners, transit routes, safe bike routes, and more using their mobile device or PC.
Most exciting of all, the app introduced a robust rewards system where commuters could earn points for the sustainable trips they take – carpool, bike, walk, bus, even telecommute – and cash those points in for deals and discounts from thousands of local, national, and online retailers and restaurants.
A firm believer in going local whenever possible, RIDE Solutions is encouraging local businesses to become a rewards program partner. There are two ways to sign up: Directly through RIDE Solutions, or by becoming a member of the Entertainment network, where your offer will be seen across multiple platforms and programs.
By becoming a rewards partner, you can connect your products and services with RIDE Solutions’ growing database of thousands of Central and Southwest Virginia commuters. Further, you can help support quality of life in the Roanoke Valley and beyond by rewarding commuters for driving less and taking cars off the road – improving regional air quality, reducing greenhouse gas emissions, and minimizing traffic congestion.
Becoming a rewards partner is free – just contact Jeremy Holmes at 540-342-9393 or
email to learn more.
