How Taxi works

1. Request

Open the app and enter your destination in the “Where to?” box. Once you confirm that your pickup and destination addresses are correct, select Taxi.

After you’ve been matched with a driver, you’ll see their vehicle details and can track their arrival on the map.

2. Ride

Check that the vehicle details match what you see in the app before getting in the vehicle.

Your driver has your destination and directions for the fastest way to get there, but you can always request a specific route.

3. Hop out

You’ll be automatically charged through your payment method on file, so you can exit the vehicle as soon as you arrive.

You can also consider tipping your driver.

In addition, you may incur wait-time fees for the time you take to get to the car at the pickup or fees for time spent at an on-trip stop.
