Get there together
What is Carma?
We all know the concept of good deeds coming full circle.
!
Do something kind for someone today, and tomorrow someone
else will do the same for you.
!
Why can’t the same thinking apply to our commute problem?
What is the problem?
The average annual cost of driving a sedan in the US = $9,122
The average passenger vehicle emits 5.1 tons of CO2 per year,
making our car culture responsible for 33% of US emissions
The typical American spends a whole week
and wastes 19 gallons of fuel sitting in traffic every year
Most of us drive to work alone, i.e. with three empty seats!
How do we fix it?
‘Get there together’!
Introducing Carma Carpooling
Say hello to the world’s first social transportation
network.
!
Set up shared trips with people anytime,
anywhere.
!
Share the cost of driving through automatic
payments from riders to drivers.
How Carma works
Choose a match
& get in touch
Tap ‘Start Trip’ &
log your journey
Tap ‘End Trip’ &
share the Carma
A better way to commute
Save up to 75% on the cost of driving
Reduce your dependency on fuel, reduce your carbon footprint
Get access to carpool/HOV lanes and get your free time back
Spend some time with your neighbors and colleagues - have some fun!
What makes Carma unique?
Cities now have an affordable, green transportation alternative
The only app in the world that can automatically verify carpools
Carma is 100% legal (unlike other so-called ridesharing apps)
Exclusive public/private partnerships, e.g. CTRMA in Austin
Makes carpooling even better for commuters
