6 MONTHS OF BETA

18+ APIs IN SYNC RUNNING IN TWO MARKETS

In 2020 we started raising money from investors with an idea of meshing any ride sharing capabilities with a digital marketplace. We beta launched Freebird in Nashville, Tennessee & Austin, Texas to test consumer interest, API data stack pressures, and general expectations. The metrics that came in told the team we were onto something big.
We believe Freebird’s marketplace offers unmatched appeal with all brands, venues, sport stadiums, restaurants, bars, lounges driving in patrons and the consumers receiving the very best deals, rides, Freebird points and cash back offers to any of their destinations.

FREEBIRD RIDES BACKEND
WHY BUSINESSES LOVE FREEBIRD

CHANGE AD BUY OFFERS IN SECONDS

  • The business is in control and sets: ride reimbursement amount, the time period offer is available, the budget and then they place that bid on Freebird’s Mobility Marketplace platform
  • The business only pays IF and WHEN the consumer takes a ride and actually transacts/interacts with that business
  • Freebird measures these transactions through linked credit cards and shares significant data to target and improve ride offer effectiveness
  • Top volume destinations earn over 20x return on ride spend

  • We offer a closed loophole advertisment model.

2026. 50 Cities. 50 States. We have high expectations.

For businesses, Freebird has created the same closed-loop advertising model as Google, but in the physical world. For brands, any ride category can be sponsored in any market with points or cash.
PROBLEMS THAT WE FIXED

Why pay for visibility?

You can influence whether customers choose to go to your business vs. another bar or restaurant, plus you can increase average checks, improve customer loyalty, all without risking a single dollar. 
PROBLEMS THAT WE FIXED

Not sharing unique user data

Many ad agencies provide services for a fee without transparent ad spend details. Social media marketing offers insight but lacks ad flexibility during the ad spend. Freebird’s edge lies in its exclusive user data. By integrating with transport and payment systems, we offer tailored ad solutions with 24/7 customization for cost-effective business opportunities.
