Today is a big day at Paytm! Well, you know how much we love solving consumer pain points. And as one of the relatively newer players in the bus travel space, we very quickly identified and addressed a big consumer concern. Proud to announce that we can now provide real time bus location for bus ticket bookings done through Paytm.com. This initiative being powered by Yourbus.in.
We observed that buses often get delayed in reaching the boarding points, owing to traffic congestion in cities. This is a cause of great discomfort among regular bus travelers.
So with our latest product feature, customers booking online through Paytm.com can now track the estimated arrival time of their bus before they leave for the boarding point. Today onwards commuters will have a choice to book a bus journey on Paytm, based on whether the bus has real-time GPS system installed in it or not.
