How is Uber different from other similar services
An interactive map of the city is built into the mobile application, which displays drivers nearby. In advance, you can select the desired category of the car (from the domestic six to a premium car) and the driver. In the Uber.Taxi application, partners and customers can pre-select a driver from a real photo. If you don’t like something, you can immediately give preference to another car.
When ordering, you do not need to give the driver an address - all data is displayed on an interactive map. The driver sees the location of the client up to several meters, and the passenger can track the proximity of the car. Both taxi drivers and customers who use the system are valued by each other. Those with a low rating are automatically blocked.
How much does a service trip cost?
What are the components of the cost of a trip with Uber? The final amount is affected by the price of the car, the price per kilometer and per minute of the trip. Payment is made only by bank transfer. The client pre-binds his debit or credit card to the mobile application, and after arriving at the destination, the cost of the trip is automatically debited from the account.
The taxi order rate can be determined in advance. It’s enough to drive in the address of the place of arrival and the place of car delivery and select “Estimate the cost of the trip”. The system works completely transparently, although the amount is determined not exactly, but within the framework of “from” and “to” a certain amount. At the end of the trip, the user’s e-mail comes with a receipt, route details, date and time of the trip.
