About

Simplybook is an online marketplace for small and medium local car rentals

Solution & Product

Simplybook aims to provide a solution for both small and medium size rental companies and the end clients. B2B -Simplybook is a comparative search engine for this market and enables small and medium size companies which do not have the resources to develop the necessary infrastructure, to reach online customers with no additional cost B2C -Simplybook reduces the transactional cost of searching and renting a vehicle for the end client, making access and comparison between available vehicles provided by different small and medium rentals easy. Our strict no hidden costs policy makes both selecting and booking vehicles even more straight forward. -Simplybook will also provide low cost excess insurance option, currently integrated by rentals in Full Insurance packages in a much higher price and with smaller coverage.

Innovation & Scalability

The proposed service will be the standard platform for searching and renting a vehicle in Greece (and other Southern European countries in later phases) and will enable small and mid-size companies to have accessibility to an online market. Opening markets to competition improves economic welfare.

Traction & achievements

Launched in 2020, but got hit by the pandemic as all global tourism. RE-launching in 2021.

Team & Why Us

Small businesses do not usually have a respectful online presence and consequently the end-user usually prefers bigger companies with better online presence. Such a search aggregator will standardize their online presence and will be recognized of the mass of tourists as a reliable brand in a similar way that Booking.com has done for hotel accommodation. This standardization will contribute to the quality of the international image of Greece.
