Betterez (now part of Terra Mobility), a Toronto-based travel technology start-up re-inventing ticketing and reservations in the bus and coach industry, today announces a partnership agreement and launch with Hannon Coach, a premium coach service operating across Northern Ireland and Scotland.
“Bus and coach travel in Northern Ireland is growing in popularity as a mode of transportation for locals, business travelers, and tourists alike. Hannon Coach is a leading coach operator in the region, and we're excited they selected TerraOS (formerly Betterez) to power their continued ridership growth.”
Hannon Coach currently operates an express service between Belfast and Glasgow which involves an intermodal ferry connection and seamless one-stop check-in. “Hannon’s multi-modal model aligns well with the TerraOS vision of powering seamless connections among multiple bus and coach operators and other modes of travel,” adds Mike.
Hannon Coach also has ambitious plans to roll out a network of intercity express services across Northern Ireland. TerraOS will provide the ticketing platform to support fully integrated ticketing across Hannon’s planned network.
“Our experience in the commercial transport industry and our partnerships with key industry bodies, ferry operators and other transport organizations allow us to provide a level of professionalism and reliability that few other coach operators in the region can match.”
With a mission to drive digital innovation in the bus and coach industry and thus contribute to smarter ground travel across the globe, TerraOS offers its customers an integrated platform for all sales channels, numerous products such as booklets and passes, real time capacity management, advanced seat maps, bus side scanning, loyalty program, dynamic pricing, and much more.
