GoGoGrandparent in the News

GoGoGrandparent is a booking service for Uber and Lyft via a call center of ultra-patient operators happy to help older adults book a ride without touching a smartphone.

"I'd really be house-bound I think without GoGoGrandparent," Betty said. "I couldn't just depend on friends and family all the time to get me here and there"

If you can’t or don’t want to drive anymore, there are options to getting where you want to go besides public transportation…GoGoGrandparent allows you to order a ride by just making a phone call — no smartphone app necessary.

On-demand apps require a smartphone to use, and there are still more than 75 million Americans who don’t have a smartphone — essentially making them ineligible to use these life-changing services.

GoGo Grandparent hires operators who can take riders’ requests on standard telephones, via push button menu, or by voice. The operators arrange the trip.

After Boogaard’s grandmother told him she was afraid of driving at night, she told him to start a business that wouldn’t require an app. So GoGoGrandparent works the old fashioned way: by dialing a phone and requesting a ride.

We Screen Cars

  • You might have a preference about what vehicles are easier for you to get in and out of. We make a note of that!
  • If a car is too large or too small, we will proactively re-request a vehicle until we find a car that will be comfortable for you.

what our customers say

I think highly of their services. All the drivers are very friendly and courteous. I like them a lot better than just trying to get it through Uber. Sometimes it is hard to pin my location and Uber can’t find me. I like the fact that I could just call GoGoGrandparent and explain where I am. Everyone is always wonderful.

-Mary, a GoGo customer

My iPhone 4 is so old that many new APPs won't work on it. That means I can't use Uber or Lyft. But guess what? I found a website called GoGoGrandparent that works with Uber and other ride-sharing sites. Super simple.
