“In times of plenty and in times of crisis, Ridecell helps shared mobility operators remain agile and adjust to customer need and demand,” said Aarjav Trivedi, CEO of Ridecell. “We do that through our platform’s data combined with our vast ecosystem of partners who work together to deliver exceptional customer experiences. During COVID-19, that ecosystem has come together in the service of medical teams and essential workers. We are proud to do what we can to thank these personnel for saving lives while they risk their own. This is a small gesture in comparison to the epic work they do, but we’re happy to help them move to and from work without worry.”

ZITY is offering free week-long rentals to healthcare and Red Cross workers in Paris to help them get to and from work without worry or costs.
