With hundreds of drivers already signed up to the platform, and ready to accept rides anywhere in the city, this could be the opportune time for you to try out ride sharing. Taxify looks to offer the best rates for their customers, with a 15% discount already on until the end of November. Depending on your travels, the fares for this period will be:
Ugx 950 as the base fare Ugx 600 per Km Ugx 150 per minute Ugx 4,500 as the minimum price
The payment methods are very convenient for everyone and are part the competition. Taxify takes only 15% commission from its drivers, far lower than the 25% that competitors take. This allows the company to offer both lower prices for riders and a much more take-home pay for drivers. Consider being a driver with Taxify and another company Y. For a trip of Ugx 10,000, you will earn Ugx 8,500 with Taxify, compared to Ugx 7,500 with Y. Originating from Tallin – Estonia, Taxify now operates in 20 countries in Europe, Africa, the Middle East, and Central America. In 2013, Taxify announced a strategic partnership with Didi Chuxing, one of the world’s leading mobile transportation platform. Didi will invest in and collaborate with Taxify to support the latter’s further growth and innovation. So, to enjoy your ride with Taxify, you’ll need to download the application.
