Zumpy allows people that share the same destiny to move around with safety. Users can choose to organize rides only with Facebook friends, moderated groups for university or companies, using the safety filters present in the APP.

 

The idea is very simple, you add your route and the app matches possible routes of other users, considering your safety settings and the compatibility of the routes.

 

Zumpy has a completely different philosophy from current car sharing apps, only supporting solidary sharing between individuals with compatible routes, and as such, offers no mechanism for charging, in contrast with other apps (Blablacar, Beepme, etc).
