In response to the surging popularity of electric vehicles (EVs) and the growing demand for accessible charging solutions, Bluedot, the premier single payment platform for EV fleet drivers, and RideShare Carz, a leading Rideshare Vehicle Rental Company specializing in electric vehicle rentals, have joined forces. The collaboration aims to provide a seamless charging experience for RideShare Carz’s EV customers, particularly rideshare drivers who heavily depend on efficient and convenient charging options to optimize their working hours.
With Rideshare drivers constituting one of the largest populations of EV drivers in the United States, the Bluedot-RideShare Carz partnership introduces an integrated solution that simplifies the entire charging process for EV renters. The innovative platform allows them to locate, charge, and pay for charging across more than 80% of public chargers in the US, eliminating the need for multiple apps and simplifying payment procedures.
Previously, Tesla rideshare drivers faced weekly billing cycles after charging their vehicles, while non-Tesla drivers had to manage charging expenses through their personal cards. This cumbersome process created significant challenges for RideShare Carz customers, hampering financial management.
The collaboration with Bluedot addresses these challenges head-on by automating the billing process. Bluedot now tracks all charging sessions and bills RideShare Carz drivers on a daily basis. This approach not only streamlines the vehicle charging billing process but also enhances internal efficiencies and elevates customer satisfaction.
Moreover, Bluedot’s platform grants RideShare Carz full control over driver expenses and billing, with the ability to revoke access to the vehicle if necessary. This all-in-one solution empowers RideShare Carz to scale its EV rental business efficiently while minimizing the number of platforms it utilizes.
Martin Hamedani, VP of Partnerships at Bluedot, expressed enthusiasm about the collaboration, stating, “Working with RideShare Carz is a natural fit for Bluedot. Our shared commitment to innovation and improving the rideshare experience makes this partnership an exciting step forward in the EV ecosystem. We’re thrilled to be part of a solution that not only benefits drivers but also supports the broader adoption of electric vehicles.”
Shamus Hayes, Chief Operating Officer of RideShare Carz, emphasized the game-changing nature of the partnership, stating, “This partnership is game-changing for our internal operations and for our driver expense management. Bluedot makes the billing process simple for EV drivers and helps them control their daily expenses. RideShare drivers rely on efficiencies like this to enhance their financial success; and allows our team to dedicate more time to customer growth and satisfaction.”
