Innbucks call themselves "Zimbabwe's Ultimate Loyalty and Reward Programme". Innbucks provides a way to pay for your Imperial Lane cross-border bus tickets directly from your phone. Use your Innbucks wallet to book through the Imperial Lane App or their WhatsApp Chatbot. To get started, you’ll need::

• An active Innbucks account

Monitoring

CCTV systems are installed on buses which enable live video monitoring of::

• The driver's view of the road from the front.
• The behaviour of the driver and level of alertness (e.g. speeding).
• Passenger entry onto the bus and exit off the bus

Imperial Lane's remote operations centre can provide immediate live assistance, can coordinate an appropriate response when something unexpected occurs, and can send out standby coaches to substitute the coach in the even of an emergency.

See an example of the video monitoring feed below:

Not owned by Intercity Xpress

Social media was abuzz with speculation that Imperial Lane was owned by Intercity Xpress after this Facebook postr: "It is fascinating to learn that Imperial Lane is owned by Intercity Eagle Liner (my analysis) . I am presently on Intercity to Durban and I observed that the seat covers are for Imperial Lane. The business space is exceptional." Imperial Lane themselves replied to correct matters: "Imperial Lane wed like to correct you in that Imperial lane is not owned by intercity. We'd also like to thank you for helping us find our missing headrests. Each new bus we purchase comes with 2 sets and our number 7 came with 1 set. Irizar has been trying to find the other set for us for a while. We've made them aware that the mystery has been solved and shared your video and they'll be contacting intercity. Intercity Xpress & EagleLiner thank you for the free advertising on your buses."

Coincidentally, this rumour occurred just before Intercity Xpress Zimbabwe bus trips were about to be restarted on 27 June 2025 (Eagle Liner and Intercity Xpress are essentially the same entity).
