Blueground Guests Can Now #FindBookUnlock with GetaroundⓇ

    SAN FRANCISCO, CA, September 01, 2021 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Whether guests stay in a turnkey, fully furnished Blueground apartment for one month or twelve months, they can now book cars shared on Getaround by the hour, day, or week. From running essential errands to taking weekend trips, Getaround is helping U.S.-based Blueground guests feel at home by providing on-demand access to shared vehicles while on the go.

Getaround is creating the leading global and digital carsharing marketplace with proprietary technology and data that make sharing vehicles superior to owning them.

"Blueground and Getaround have the same mission and audience — both companies simplify the travel experience for guests staying in a new city. We are excited to join Blueground and offer a mobility solution to their guests that enhances their time away from home," said Adam Bastein, Head of Demand and Go-to-Market Strategies, Getaround.

The Getaround-Blueground collaboration supports those who are traveling for work, moving to a new home, or visiting a new city. For a fully digitized experience, guests can find, book, and unlock a shared car through the Getaround app. There are no lines or key exchanges necessary — simply book and go. They can also book their Blueground stay online and check-in using the Blueground's Guest App.
