“We believe that GroundLink’s New York City customers will be excited to take advantage of the free Wi-Fi powered by Karma,” said GroundLink CEO Bruce Rogoff. “Our clients have come to expect a level of innovation and service from GroundLink that goes beyond any other ground transportation provider. This partnership with Karma is a natural fit that furthers our commitment to providing the most cutting-edge, technology-based service in the industry.”

“We love how GroundLink’s premium service helps riders get around town. Now, with the addition of Karma Wi-Fi, we’re making everyone’s ride a connected one,” said Karma CEO Steven van Wel. “This partnership with GroundLink marks the next step in Karma’s global initiative to unlock access to Wi-Fi on-the-go.”

Karma’s free Wi-Fi will be available for riders, in select GroundLink vehicles, to use with their mobile phone, tablet or laptop. This new feature will only add to GroundLink’s industry-leading technology that already allows for multiple booking options (online, phone or via an award-winning mobile app), provides the industry’s only on-time pickup guarantee policy, offers worldwide availability, delivers transparent pricing, has the ability to track rides in real-time and affords a centralized dashboard for corporate users.

Rogoff expects Karma’s Wi-Fi to appeal particularly to GroundLink’s business customers. In fact, for travel managers, GroundLink provides a complete set of tools designed to help corporations track and manage their ground spend. Leveraging a web-based central dashboard, GroundLink is able to provide travel managers with a list of all upcoming and completed rides, overall spend and a breakdown of the company’s top routes and passengers. In addition, travel managers can easily add or delete employees with the click of a mouse, making program management a breeze. Wi-Fi in select cars in New York City is just one more reason travel managers are looking to book with GroundLink.
