Skyscanner, Liigu Partner to Offer Contactless Rentals

Keyless car rental provider Liigu and travel marketplace Skyscanner announced a partnership to increase the availability of its contactless and keyless car rental service within the global travel community. The collaboration allows travelers who come to Europe to find Liigu’s offers across Skyscanner’s platforms.

“We are delighted to start the strategic collaboration with global travelling giant Skyscanner and combine our efforts to make travelling stress-free and convenient for millions of customers," said Annemari Muru, CEO of Liigu in a statement. "New business models like keyless access to a car and car subscriptions are now emerging rapidly and growing in popularity. Customers are demanding digital services, which are fully usable through their mobile devices. We believe this collaboration will become long-standing and bring the convenience of keyless car usage and easy access to a rental car to millions of international travelers.”

Customers can book from a one-day rental up to a 24-month subscription, using the fully digitalized service.

“We are excited to be working with Liigu to offer the 100 million plus travelers visiting our platforms every month the opportunity to book a contactless car rental," added Paul Cumins, head of car hire at Skyscanner. "Keyless providers like Liigu are bringing a step change to the industry and considerably enhancing the renting experience. A digital, mobile-first approach gives renters true control, bringing a multitude of benefits such as avoiding queues, convenient communication, and simple damage reporting.”

After the integration, Liigu offers will be visible to U.K., E.U., U.S., and Asian markets.
