Busbud For Promo Codes & Coupons

Freshly done with his MBA, Busbud's CEO LP Maurice decided to take some time to backpack across South America from the southern tip of Argentina to the mountains of Peru.

On this trip, LP came to appreciate buses and realized how vital of a part of transportation they play, especially in South America. Still, getting around was frustrating. Between the language barrier, the amount of bus companies available and the difficulty of finding reliable schedules, planning transportation was taking up a lot of his time and energy.

While riding a bus in Argentina, LP wrote up a business plan for Busbud. Upon his return to Canada, he recruited some old friends to launch the company, Mike Gradek and Frederic Thouin. In an era where travelers can easily book a flight, hail a cab, and reserve a hotel room online, there needs to be a better way to buy bus tickets. And now, there is.
