Benefits of Tootle App for the Country and Society
The answer is simple: get a ride from tootle. Tootle is an app that matches you with riders in your way and you get a ride to your destination on paying some fare. How convenient is that! On one hand you can get an easy ride on a very less fare compared to what you would pay for cabs and on the other hand, the bike riders will earn spare money on their way. Similarly, pollution will decrease if people just take a ride rather than using their own. Thus tootle is both convenient and sustainable. Tootle is creating a good buzz in the market these days however, its service is currently available within the valley only. Tootle started its service on Jan 1, 2020. In 1st year of operation tootle won local best startup awards and represented Nepal in two international platforms Slush GIA and Seedstars world.
