Travelier Unveils Its New Brand Traveling.com
Formerly known as GetByBus, the Croatian-born brand reintroduces itself.
Travelier is stepping into a bold new era with the launch of Traveling.com. The transformation from GetByBus represents not just a name change but an evolution into a comprehensive global travel platform, designed to simplify travel across borders, islands, and regions.
With this significant rebranding, Traveling.com becomes the flagship consumer brand in Europe, merging services previously offered as separate entities—GetByBus, GetByFerry, GetByTransfer, and the GetBy App—into one cohesive platform. This strategic move aims to provide a unified experience characterized by ease, reliability, and scalability.
Comprehensive Services for Modern Travelers
Traveling.com addresses the diverse needs of contemporary travelers. Whether embarking on a journey across the Adriatic Sea or planning an adventure from one destination to another, the platform equips users with resources for buses, ferries, trains, and transfers.
Ante Dageli?, the CEO of Traveling.com, shared insights about the transition: "GetByBus started with a simple mission: to simplify bus travel in Croatia. Over the years, we have become a premier transport platform in the region. However, as travel behavior evolved and competition intensified, we recognized the necessity for an upgrade. Traveling.com embodies that upgrade—a more modern brand poised to cater to travelers worldwide."
A Shift Towards Global Recognition
The rebrand signifies a shift towards establishing a globally recognized hub for both ground and maritime transport. With a commitment to user experience and smart technology, Traveling.com is set to reshape the travel booking landscape.
Success Story: From Local to Global
Originating as a Croatian startup specializing in bus travel, GetByBus quickly became a trusted resource for locals and tourists alike in Southeast Europe, thanks to its clear information and user-friendly services.
As demand surged, the company expanded its reach through new services like GetByFerry, GetByTransfer, and a dedicated mobile app. However, the presence of multiple sub-brands necessitated a more unified identity.
This identity is now represented by Traveling.com, which integrates all forms of ground and maritime transportation into a single platform. This marks a significant evolution from a regional contender to a recognized international travel leader.
The Significance of the Name Traveling.com
The name was carefully selected after extensive testing among users, revealing its familiarity, trustworthiness, and flexibility—all essential traits for a platform responsible for facilitating transportation via various modes.
With "traveling" remaining one of the most frequently searched global terms in 2024, the domain serves as a strategic asset that enhances brand visibility and recognition.
Aimed at Today's Traveler
The rebranding accompanies enhanced features on the company's app and platform. Users can now access personalized suggestions, real-time support, and straightforward booking processes, all designed to foster loyalty among users.
The emphasis is not solely on technology; the brand voice aims to maintain a warm and approachable tone, reminiscent of a well-traveled friend rather than a faceless entity. Traveling.com aspires to incorporate logistics seamlessly into the enjoyable aspects of travel.
Backed by a Global Network
Traveling.com operates under the umbrella of Travelier, a global travel tech collective that encompasses:
- 12Go – Southeast Asia's premier transport platform
- Plataforma 10 – Argentina's top bus booking site
- DeÔnibus – Brazil's intercity travel leader
- Bookaway – a renowned global brand for travelers in the U.S. and Europe.
This extensive network spans over 643,000 routes in 122 countries, establishing Traveling.com as a reliable resource for travel experiences worldwide.
Redefining the Booking Experience
In a market still dominated by outdated platforms, Traveling.com emerges as a refreshing alternative marked by modern design, transparent pricing, and a strong emphasis on user-friendliness and trust.
As CEO Ante Dageli? stated, "Traveling.com is more than a rebrand; it's our next chapter. A modern, trusted platform where people can discover and book the best way to get around, anywhere in the world."
