Addison Lee has made significant movements in 2015 to keep the business in fifth gear. In April, the private car service acquired Camden-based rival Cyclone as part of a “continued investment to deliver best-in-class experiences for our customers”.
A month later and Addison Lee revealed the takeover of Climate Cars, an eco-friendly car service that would bolster its new owner’s fleet of 350 hybrid vehicles, in a bid to go green. The firm has now launched an API (application programme interface) to provide more booking options to customers, partners and affiliates. The open software will allow third parties to integrate the means to book Addison Lee vehicles from any of their websites or mobile apps.- Access to book Addison Lee premier car services

“We have always been innovative in our use of technology and the launch of Addison Lee’s API is another step we’ve taken to provide the best possible service to our customers, partners and affiliates, many of whom are already planning to integrate our service into their own websites and apps,” said Peter Ingram, CTO at Addison Lee.
