12Go simplifies travel in Asia by consolidating ground and water transport booking into one platform.
In a move to simplify travel logistics across Asia, 12Go has launched a platform that consolidates multiple ground and water transportation options into a single, user-friendly interface. Historically, travelers in Asia have faced challenges when booking trains, buses, ferries, and other forms of local transportation due to fragmented systems, varying schedules, and language barriers. Unlike air and accommodation platforms, such as Skyscanner or Booking.com, ground and water transport modes did not offer a unified interface to make it easier to plan for multi-modal travel.
Thus, 12Go has filled that gap by harmonizing various transport service operators, from Thai local buses to Japanese high-speed trains, within the same platform, making it convenient for travelers to book transport easily and saving effort and time devoted to researching available services. For instance, several local transport service operators use systems that are pretty outdated, especially when it comes to real-time scheduling, pricing, and booking facilities, which did not exist prior to 12Go.
The platform also enhances accessibility by having several payment methods; hence, this has made it easy for the locals and the international tourists to purchase their tickets and travel. 12Go has diversified services in many countries, including Japan, which offer its customers travel insurance, airport transfers, and rail passes.
It gives a major edge to budget travelers, who may choose cheaper alternatives like buses or local trains to reach their destinations instead of an expensive flight. Digitalizing the Asia transport sector-12Go has a huge role in the travel sector of the region, which could improve accessibility, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness for tourists as well as the local population.
