Hytch Rewards in partnership with the Middle Tennessee State University (MTSU) Data Science Institute performed an analytical study to validate if the database framework of Hytch can be scalable and what it costs to promote a sustained user.
In response to the COVD-19 pandemic, many states and organizations have implemented the shelter in place compliance. Most shelter in place initiatives have been at the macro level but Hytch Rewards has introduced a new shelter in place feature which rewards individuals for good behavior.
The shelter in place feature on the Hytch Rewards app was introduced at the end of March. As a contribution to coronavirus response efforts, Hytch Rewards will continue waiving all service fees for employer and government partners of the Shelter in Place program.
The Hytch Rewards platform rewards its users for making smart mobility choices (ride-sharing, using public transit, or walking). Hytch has pivoted with the new Shelter in Place feature, which rewards people for staying at home. Congressman Jim Cooper and his office are among the first to use this new feature.
Commuters Trust program, launched in 2019 under Mayor Pete Buttigieg, is in response to a lack of reliable transportation which was identified as a barrier to finding and maintaining employment. Hytch Rewards partners with Commuters Trust for an incentive-based, peer-to-peer ride-sharing solution for workers with limited access to public transit.
Hytch Rewards, a technology solution that incentivizes smarter mobility decisions, today announced Shelter in Place, a new feature for its popular mobile app. Designed to encourage behavior that will limit the spread of COVID-19, Shelter in Place will pay daily cash rewards to sponsored U.S. residents who self-quarantine at home.
Jeremy and Mark Cleveland, the co-founder and CEO of Hytch, discuss environmentalism, mobility, entrepreneurism, and what makes Nashville special.
Small to mid-sized cities often lack density, demand, and funding to support and implement a robust public transit system. The City of South Bend wrestled with these issues and has explored and incorporated alternate mobility solutions other than infrastructure to help connect people to jobs and opportunities.
Employers can now use the Nashville-based mobility incentive platform’s Shelter in Place rewards to encourage their employees to engage in safe and healthy habits, ease financial burdens associated with teleworking or being furloughed and make sure that people are actually staying home.
The focus of mobility solutions is often in urban centers and large cities but it’s critical to deliver reliable mobility solutions where transportation is a seen as a barrier to employment. Commuters Trust Program Indiana partners Hytch Rewards to help solve this problem.
