The latest ride-hailing app, PeekUp, recently held its grand launch at SM Megamall to mark its entry into the Philippine transportation scene.

PeekUp CEO and Founder Dave Almarinez and CFO Jason Chua led the event, which was graced by celebrity guests Paulo Avelino, Cristine Reyes, Jeric Raval, Bugoy Drillon, Ketchup Eusebio, Ara Mina, social media influencers, and other VIPs.

Aiming to make mobility enjoyable, PeekUp is a Filipino-made solution to the country’s transportation woes. Not just another ride-hailing app, PeekUp aims to give commuters peace of mind with a rigorous driver screening process and partnerships with trusted insurance providers. It also aims to empower drivers with features to help them maximize their earnings.

According to Almarinez, PeekUp brings a fresh approach to the market by offering a seamless and efficient platform that connects users with a reliable and trusted local service. Unlike traditional service-seeking methods, PeekUp provides a user-friendly interface, real-time tracking, secure payment options, and a wide range of services, all combined in one convenient PeekUp app.

“The idea for PeekUp originated from a personal experience of struggling to find a convenient, reliable ride and promptly,” Almarinez said. “This gap in the market sparked the vision to develop a solution that could streamline the process of connecting users with driver partners while prioritizing convenience, quality, and transparency.

“As founders, we combined our expertise in [the] technology, transportation, venture building, and service industries to create PeekUp,” he continued.

In its first year, Almarinez and his team aim to establish PeekUp as a household name in the ride-hailing technology service industry by expanding to multiple cities, increasing user and driver engagement, enhancing five-star service offerings, and ensuring a high level of customer experience and satisfaction. “Our goal is to reach a significant number of users up to one million and service by our driver partners of at least 27,000 to create a thriving ecosystem within PeekUp’s technological platform,” he shared.

With its official hashtag #WellGetYouThere, PeekUp aims to ensure smooth travels with safe, friendly drivers and on-schedule, always-on-time rides. Download PeekUp in the Apple App Store or Google Play Store: https://www.peekup.net/driver-app.
