SINGAPORE: Within the next six months, commuters here will have access to virtually unlimited rides on buses and trains, as well as discounted rides on ride-hailing services and shared-bikes with a flat monthly fee.

The subscription plans are likely to allow for some level of customisation based on a user's specific needs, said Mr Lim. mobilityX is currently partnered with eight different companies - including ride-hailing firms Grab and Gojek, electric car-sharing service BlueSG and bike-sharing firm Anywheel - to offer their services through its app, which has about 16,000 users following a beta-launch in April this year.For example, while it is possible to book a private-hire car ride through Zipster, users will still be directed to the Grab or Gojek apps.

mobilityX got the green light to trial subscription-based pricing after working closely with a few government agencies, he said.
