The Mozio Group is building the ultimate mobility software suite. We partner with all the local shared-ride shuttles, airporters, taxis, limos, express trains, ferries, helicopters and give Online Travel Agencies, Airlines, Hotels and Car Rental agencies and websites one API, white-label solution or widget to help our partners make money off of ground transportation. There are 3 billion passenger-flights every year, but almost no airlines or OTAs sell ground transportation. This is valuable ancillary revenue you are missing out on! Our advantages: Geocoded Solution: Mozio's proprietary ground transportation platform allows you to submit an address, zipcode, lat/lng, Google Place and more, and tells you the exact rate to your destination. No more "zones" or trying to figure out which zipcode your hotel is located in. Customers are put at ease knowing their transfer won't be cancelled on them because they chose the wrong zone. Marketplace Model: Mozio lets brands compete under their own name, facilitating lower prices and higher margins. Competition drives better customer value. Diverse offering: Mozio offers long distance buses, short distance scheduled buses to city centers, express trains, and long distance trains in addition to the standard private transfers and shuttles. We also seek out unique options in each city, minicabs in London, local car livery services in NYC, helicopters in Dubai and more! Brand Separation: The marketplace model allows you to separate your brand from the service. If you use a wholesaler you will have to sell an "Expedia shuttle" or a "Orbitz shuttle" but with Mozio you will be selling a "Supershuttle." When someone books American Airlines and there is a flight delay, they don't blame Expedia, because the brands are separate. Mozio allows you to have the same distinctions between your brands, saving you valuable brand equity. Our website: www.moziogroup.com
