Sendylo is a FREE application for sending parcels between individuals. It connects travelers who want to make their trips more profitable with individuals who want to send a package at a lower cost. This service is for travelers as well as for parcel senders. Post a travel ad in a few clicks to be put in touch with a sender. The traveler who has room in his suitcase or in the trunk of his car can transport a parcel to amortize his travel expenses, while the sender benefits from a cheaper shipment than what traditional service providers offer. In addition to benefiting from a cheaper shipment, you are doing something for the planet and contributing to the reduction of greenhouse gases. WHY USE SENDYLO ? 1. NO COST: Sendylo only connects a traveler and a sender. There are no commission fees for Sendylo on the transactions. 2. INSTANT MESSAGING: the connection between travelers and senders is done directly within the messaging system integrated into the application. No more unwanted messages on your personal accounts (SMS, email, social networks, etc), everything happens in Sendylo. 3. CUSTOMER SERVICE: no AI to answer you in case of a problem, real people answer your questions. 4. ECOLOGICAL AND SOLIDARITY TRANSPORT: transporting parcels by colocation is a good way to protect nature by optimizing the trips that would be made anyway. Moreover, it is a friendly and solidary way. 5. CONFIDENTIALITY AND SECURITY: the information exchanged in Sendylo is encrypted from end to end and archived at the end of each transaction. To finalize a transaction, the traveler and the sender sign a charter to secure the operation.
