Bio

Green Monkeys is a dynamic ridesharing (carpooling) solution targeting commuters.
For decades, traditional carpooling initiatives have failed to solve the “one person per car” commute. More like organized hitchhiking, carpooling was never a viable option.
With Green Monkeys, carpooling is flexible, reliable, safe, economical and transparent. Green Monkeys has revolutionized carpooling and formalized it to provide a robust service with the advantages of public transport.
Green Monkeys works closely with businesses to reduce traffic, pollution and stress.
