The "Will You Rent a MYRA?" campaign is a special collaboration among Krungsri, ShopeeFood and ETRAN to offer an exclusive package of electric motorcycle rental for food delivery to ShopeeFood riders in preparation for the rising demands during the upcoming Shopee 9.9 วันช้อปแห่งปี (Wan Shop Hang Pee): Super Shopping Day. The riders who register to rent a 'MYRA' model of ETRAN electric motorcycle and pay the rent by linking with Krungsri account are entitled to a privilege of free drive for 5 days after completing the 3-month rental period, with a rental fee staring at only 100 Baht per day. The riders will benefit from lower operational expenses and help reduce air pollution by using electric vehicles, which is in line with the direction of the government and the 3 partners.

Mr. Phonganant Thanattrai, Krungsri Head of Retail and Consumer Banking said "As a trusted partner for customers, Krungsri aims to build a complete and comprehensive ecosystem for our customers. Under the Krungsri Ecosystem and One Retail strategies which aim to create innovative financial solutions that meet customer needs, the special privileges will hopefully bring in new retail customers from ShopeeFood's riders' base. In addition, the collaboration of Krungsri, ShopeeFood and ETRAN in offering special privileges to ShopeeFood riders participating in this campaign is a major step of Krungsri in driving the mission of building a complete mobility ecosystem. Concurrently, the campaign also promotes the adoption of electric vehicles which does not only enable the riders to save on their petrol costs but also creates sustainability for the environment, in alignment with Krungsri's vision of being a leader in ESG finance and supporting our customers, both business and personal, in their journey towards achieving their sustainability goals. We earnestly hope that we can extend this kind of collaboration to other delivery businesses in the future.

We believe that this collaboration will help improve the quality of our riders' lives by reducing their petrol costs and the interest burdens from installment payment, and simultaneously take part in environmental conservation through campaigning for the use of electronic vehicles in a more practical way."
