We’re all familiar with the ZipCar by now, that car rental line that offers driving freedom to urbanites who don’t want to bother with the hassles that come with owning a car. But what you may not be aware of is that, if you have an iPhone, you’ve just opened up the entire world of ZipCar.
iPhone users will now be able to lock and unlock ZipCar car doors remotely with their iPhones, as well as start their engines remotely. Plus you can even locate and reserve a particular car from the ZipCar lineup with your iPhone.
Seems that one third of all ZipCar customers use iPhones for one purpose or another, and so, offering iPhone connectivity represented a significant advantage to ZipCar users. This in turn helps fuel brand loyalty.
It’s a smart idea for the ZipCar company, and if you’re an iPhone user who’s looking for a rental car, ZipCar may just be your ticket after all.
