Say hello to the GO with Busbud, our rewards program!
GO with Busbud is the perfect way to save money and make bus travel even more convenient. With GO, you can earn credits for every trip you take, which can be used for discounts for your next trips.
Here’s what you need to know about our loyalty program.
How GO with Busbud works
We’ve designed the loyalty program so that saving money on bus and train tickets is simple and easy for travelers using the Busbud app. How does it work? You earn rewards for every ticket purchased with Busbud app. After using 5 tickets, you can redeem a part of the value of your tickets in credits and apply it to your future trips.
Buy 5 tickets → redeem your credits on the 6th ticket.
To give you an example, let’s say you’re planning a backpacking trip and decide to travel to six different destinations by bus. With GO with Busbud, after using your first five tickets, you can get a discount on your sixth ticket. It’s as simple as that!
To begin earning credits, all you have to do is download the Busbud app. Then, after you create an account, every time you book a ticket through the Busbud app and take the trip, you’ll earn credits that can be redeemed for future discounts.
