Corbata Ushers in Version 2.0 of the Gig Economy
Summary
ST. PAUL, Minn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Corbata, an innovative exchange that pairs riders with drivers, today introduced its own vehicle that will usher in the next version of the Gig Economy. “Corbata benefits riders with full transparency on both sides of the transaction, provides better income for drivers, and adds the potential of ongoing revenue streams for local governments through a transportation fee.” Corbata’s power lies in its innovative design as a true market-driven TIE rather than the Transportation Network Company (TNC) structure of Uber and Lyft. “Corbata works because we merely facilitate the exchange of information between two mutually interested parties: riders and drivers,” said James Kruse, Chief Operating Officer. Corbata’s Carcierge approach pairs the ability of local drivers to offer discounts to clubs, restaurants and other entertainment venues not found other places. “Corbata is a TIE that’s interested in positive, proactive discussions with local governments looking for smart transportation options,” Towle said.
