Tiger Global and Hero Motocorp-backed electric scooter company Ather Energy has joined hands with dockless shared mobility firm Bounce for ‘peer to peer’ (P2P) scooter sharing programme. The partnership enables new Ather 450 owners to monetize the idle time of the vehicle by listing their vehicle on the Bounce App for all their customers and earning an additional income. Unlike the typical dockless model Bounce offers, the P2P scooters are picked up and returned to the owner by Bounce customers.
Ather is the first brand to partner with Bounce to make their products available through this program. To opt for this model, consumers need to book the Ather 450 through the Bounce platform and on delivery the commercially registered vehicle is ready to be listed on the Bounce app.
