Yes, via our online Client Hub, you will be able to review all your passengers’ booking and boarding statuses. During live trips, you can see the passengers boarding the bus in real time as their QR code tickets are scanned.

What happens if something goes wrong with the bus?

RideTandem shuttle buses are a fully managed service. Our 24/7 support team works to proactively manage your trips - looking ahead for issues like traffic and road closures. By doing this, we limit the number of trips that are delayed. If a bus breaks down, we work with our transport operators to source replacement buses or other transport to make sure all the passengers get to where they need to go.

Can I change the route of a bus once we've set it up?
