BMP Car

Nigerian tech startup BMP Car is set to redefine the ride hailing tech transport system with its newly launched 2-in-1 model – car sharing and VIP taxi on the same platform, which allows users to link-up and join anyone embarking on the same route with them or book an instant ride to their various destinations.

Unlike the existent service of Uber pool, BMP’s car sharing mode is useful for both intra and interstate travel while it’s VIP taxi mode is for service mainly within Lagos State.

The idea was designed to reduce hassle for online transport users, as the platform aims to offer Nigerians simple, reliable, secured and cheap transportation service to reduce stress and aid smooth inter and intrastate travels.

Ezekiel Ojo, chief executive officer and founder of BMP Car said the platform was set up with a unique model of providing a 2-in-1 service of Car Sharing and VIP Taxi model with instant bookings, unlike its competitors.

“Being a community that connects car drivers to passengers, users’ identities on the platform are properly verified after registering with their details so that partners can know who they are travelling with,” he said.

Explaining further, Ojo said that through the car sharing, car owners can find nearby people that are travelling the same direction with them through a few clicks and get paid while users can also easily get across to available car owners embarking on the same route with them.”

He said that people can request for a ride through the VIP taxi model adding that it was positioned to offer drivers and partners the best earnings while also offering users excellent service.

‘’Unlike other online hailing platforms that failed to identify some critical problems facing drivers and users, BMP Car was designed for both the riders and the users to generate additional revenue and enjoy a convenient, easy and safe platform. Anyone can earn more revenue which could be drivers or passengers on car sharing, while VIP drivers are permanently available on the platform to respond to an instant booking by the users,” Ojo said.

The BMP Car app is available both on the Google Play store and Apple App store.
