Busbud Is Taking Care Of Business

Montreal-based Busbud – a bus travel booking app and website selling bus tickets in 63 countries and 10,000 cities – has launched Busbud Business, which opens its Bus Booking API to partners and increases its lead in the bus and coach industry.

By partnering with Busbud, travel sites and apps can gain access to the largest bus inventory in the world and already, a dozen local and international travel companies have recently signed distribution agreements with Busbud and will be making intercity bus inventory available on their platforms in the coming weeks.

During the past year, Busbud has seen its ticket sales grow by 600% year-over-year and as its looks at ramping up its global expansion, the company has named Sean Shannon as its chief operating officer.

Shannon, of course, was the former managing director of Expedia for Canada, Latin America and Australia/New Zealand.
