Monthly prizes for car sharers

Milton Park’s most frequent KINTO app users get entered into prize draw to win £50 food vouchers every month!

There has been a growing trend for commuters to car share, especially since Milton Park launched the partnership with the KINTO Join. The app helps users to connect, share and save with others when they travel to work, while reducing carbon footprints.

Milton Park has also launched a monthly prize draw for £50 worth of food vouchers for the most prolific car sharers among us. The more you share, the higher your chances of winning, and all users who fall within the leaderboard’s top ten will be entered into the prize draw at the end of every month. To keep things competitive, you can also track your progress against your colleagues by viewing the leaderboard within the app’s account page. 

All new users need to do is download the KINTO Join app using the link below and follow the verifying instructions to qualify. All the instructions are in the app and KINTO will also be sending information out to the existing members of the community.

For those who haven’t heard of or used the app before, KINTO Join is a commuting solution, revolutionising the way employees travel to work through its unique technology able to connect people with the same routes to work. It’s also incredibly easy to download, set up, and start car sharing.

To get started, all you need to do is download the free KINTO Join app, then register and join the Milton Park workplace community. Once set up, you will be able to see others who live near you or along your journey and who travel to Milton Park on the same days and times as you. Many people working at Milton Park who don’t drive are looking for drivers willing to give them a lift and would be happy to share the fuel costs.

Some instructions to get you started:

1. Using KINTO Join, find a colleague to car share with using the “find people to carpool with” or “People” tab.
2. Alternatively, you can “Book a journey” as a driver or “join a ride” as a passenger.
3. Once you have met the colleague you are car sharing with, select “start journey”.
4. If you’re a driver, input the destination/ If you’re a passenger; toggle yes on travelling to driver’s destination.
5. Select “Go”.
6. Connect with the passenger/ driver via Bluetooth connection, alternatively a passenger can scan the driver’s QR code within the app to connect.
7. Once you reach the destination the journey will automatically verify.

On top of the competition, the environmental benefits and the fuel cost savings, perks of this scheme include the ability to:

1. Measure your environmental impact and carbon footprint reduction.
2. Record your journey.
3. Enjoy a more social commute, getting to know other people across the Park.

May the best car sharer win!
