New Amigo app launches on-demand delivery service

MANILA, Philippines — A new on-demand delivery service called Amigo is gearing to start operations this month.

Developed by Project Move Inc., the Amigo app will soon be available for download.

“It will be available in the coming weeks. This will definitely be ready this month,” the company said.

Amigo believes this is the best time to launch its service and offer Filipinos a partner that they can rely on when it comes to their delivery needs as it foresees requests for on-demand delivery services to increase further this year.

The on-demand delivery service plans cater to different delivery needs through a seamlessly convenient application and fairly priced service.

“Delivery isn’t a one-way street, and through Amigo, we want to create a harmonious delivery experience for everyone involved. Whether they’re busy customers looking for convenience, hard-working businesses looking for a reliable logistics partner, or partner riders looking for new opportunities, Amigo is here to take Filipinos further as they journey through 2021 and beyond,” Amigo co-founder and managing director Kimberly Siy said.

“We are lucky to have the support of the Siy Cha Group of companies and their well-experienced management team, who have been in the motorcycle retail business for more than 30 years now. Leveraging on our industry expertise, we saw launching Amigo as a way to serve our fellow Filipinos and create a lasting positive impact on society by introducing a reliable delivery service for consumers, riders and merchants,” she said.

Amigo said it would make customer convenience a top priority, from a booking process that takes as little steps as possible, to flexible booking times and an option for both cash and cashless transactions where customers can opt for cash on delivery, credit/debit card, and PayMaya account.

When it comes to package security, Amigo said it has real-time tracking of riders and a security code feature to ensure packages arrive at the right locations and to the right people.

The Amigo chat feature will provide customers real-time communication with riders or a customer support agent, where they can send their location or images all within the Amigo app.
