Rs. 20 Swvl Bus Service Launches in Karachi, Free Rides for New Users

By Sponsored | Published Sep 23, 2019 | 3:48 pm

What’s the first thing that pops in your mind when you hear the words safe, reliable, affordable and comfortable public transport? Nothing, right? Be it working women or university going students, both find it difficult to get public transport that has all these qualities.

Well look no further because Swvl’s got you covered. After phenomenal success in Lahore and Islamabad, Swvl has now been launched in Karachi.

As part of Swvl’s pre-hype campaign, influencers asked their followers the following question, “What can you get in Rs20?” We got some very interesting responses, e.g. “kuch bhi nae”, “fries”, “ammi ki maar”, “cocomo”, “lays”, “podina raita”?

Not surprisingly, no one mentioned travel. Interestingly, of all the items mentioned no one stated any service provided to people for Rs. 20. In today’s global crippling economy, Swvl provides a bus hailing service for just Rs. 20. Seems like the light you see at the end of a dark tunnel!

Swvl is a bus-hailing app that aims to revolutionize the Pakistani public transportation scene, helping you save up on your limited resources of time, space and money. Being sustainable and green it saves you the hassle of having to drive and waste money on your daily commute through the nerve-wracking traffic and relieves you from the otherwise uncomfortable and unreliable public transport rides. Agreed, there are no free lunches but finding cheap lunches is nothing short of a feat. Swvl helps you reach your destination in just Rs. 20.

Swvl is offering a welcoming code to its riders “KHIFREE”. Using the code, travelers can use the service for free. In all other cases, the price is a flat PKR 20.

Commuting in public transport without fear has been made easy by Swvl. Because your safety, comfort and peace of mind is more important for the company than to generate Revenues. The  Swvl app, with its user friendly interface, is pretty simple to use. To book a Swvl bus, all you need to do is download the App from teh Apple App Store or Google Play Store, select your pickup and drop-off points along with your preferred time and book a ride.

You can then board the bus from your chosen pickup point. They help you commute more for less, with ease and comfort! Swvl promises every form of convenience for their user’s commute.

 SWVL will be offering the following travel-friendly routes in Karachi:

  • Malir Cantt > M.T Khan Road

  • Buffer Zone > Clifton

  • Malir Cantt >Clifton

  • 4k Bus Stop > Clifton

  • Buffer Zone > M.T Khan Road

  • As usual, instead of lauding an effort that could be engulfed in flames if a slight accident were to occur, people here are telling company managers to introduce route. Perhaps, these new comers to Karachi have forgotten that this city’s size is more than even the combined area of Peshawar, Lahore and Islamabad. It would take time to run buses on all the routes in a short span of time.

  • 0300-664-3200 PLS START SERVICE FROM NORTH NAZMABAD TO SHAHRHAH-E-FIASAL KHI ON MONTHLY BASIS
