RINGY is a group of local Chinese volunteers that are fluent in English. They donate their time and effort to help expats and travelers with communication problems caused by language barriers. RINGY provides access to instant free interpretation through WeChat messages or over the phone when necessary. In-person interpreters are also available in certain cities to assist with daily tasks, though an appointment in advance is required.
The founder of RINGY, Swan, is a local Chinese entrepreneur who used to manage an expat gym in Shenzhen, where she frequently provided interpretation for gym members and her expat friends. She noticed that language barriers in China had become such an issue that many foreigners had given up their favorite hobbies and joys in life. Coincidentally, her friend and fellow entrepreneur Sarah in Shanghai also noticed the same phenomenon. After a night of catching up with old friends in Shanghai, they both started to think about the same question: Why don't we gather around a group of people like us to help expats in China together?
It's been a few months since RINGY'S first launch. In the past months, the platform has received positive feedback from people all over the world. More and more interpreters who share the same values are joining the team. With their joint efforts, RINGY has managed to help with cases such as:
Talking to Ayi
Ordering food
Reading product labels and packaging
Helping with online shopping process
