ByCycling is a Commuter Platform helping organizations shift commute behavior towards green, active, and micro-mobility modes. We do this by making it easy to design and implement commuter programs and by offering direct incentives to the staff when 'green' commuting. We are on a mission to simplify the way companies deploy and manage large commuter programs, with an impact-driven approach.Our customer Palo Alto Transportation Management Association (PATMA) is developing a first-in-the-world “Bike Love” program, featuring six unique aspects:● Daily incentives for geo-verified active mode first-mile and home-to-work commute trips, up to $600 per year per commuter. ● Geofenced location tracking confirms bike, e-bike, e-scooter, and e-skateboard trips. Areas surrounding 30 Caltrain commuter rail stations are geofenced to confirm first-mile trips. ● Within 60 seconds, incentive dollars may be redeemed at local merchants via reloadable Apple/Google Pay Virtual Visa credit cards. ● By restricting transaction authorization to local merchants, program funds are recycled back into the local economy, multiplying program impact. ● A novel incentive structure featuring higher daily incentives in the first few weeks and during foul weather.● Persuasive marketing utilizing door-to-door, in-person outreach to 800 businesses encompassing technology, light office, government, and service workers. Bike Love scales to other cities and major employer commute programs, increasing transit ridership at no cost to transit operators. Bike Love addresses public transit’s decades-old FIRST MILE Problem. The project is partially funded by a federal Transportation Research Board grant.
