NSRCEL-incubated start-up SharePal inspires people to travel economically

SharePal

It is often said that ‘Food is what fills your stomach, but travel is what fills your soul’. SharePal is a venture that makes sure that your soul never goes hungry!

SharePal is a rental solutions company in the travel segment. The start-up is incubated at NSRCEL, the entrepreneurship and innovation development centre at IIM Bangalore, as a part of the Launchpad program.

Rushi Narang and Akashdeep Chhabra, the founders of SharePal, are globetrotters themselves, and so are the employees. They say, “Buying luggage and travel gear is expensive. So, we thought to make it easy for people to travel, make great memories and worry less about the travel costs. At SharePal you can rent all your travel needs at a fraction of their purchase cost. Rent whatever and whenever you need and return hassle-free with our free delivery and return policy. Through Sharepal, you always get more choices and more savings.”

SharePal provides trekking, camping and riding gear along with luggage bags and GoPro cameras on rent. They are a team of dedicated travel enthusiasts who not only offer the best customer service but also care every bit for their customers’ experiences and safety. Rushi remarks, “We understand what kind of liberty and rejuvenation is instilled in one’s mind, body and spirit when one travels the world and we want more people to experience this wonderful world. Our tagline—'Because Experiences Matter More’—has also been inspired by this vision of ours.”

SharePal’s mission is to cut down the cost of travelling by 80% via the concept of a sharing community, which has successfully helped thousands of travellers save quite a lot of money. They have a vast inventory that includes gear for every place, every altitude, every season and every temperature. Besides, the company also provides GoPros on rent to encourage travellers record memories of their voyage.

The company recently stepped foot into the e-bike renting business. SharePal maintains the bikes while the users are required to pay a monthly or an annual subscription.

In the two years of their launch, SharePal founders say they have served more than 8000 customers. SharePal is currently present in six cities – Mumbai, Delhi, Bangalore, Pune, Chennai and Hyderabad.
