Arriving Now: Disguised phone numbers for riders and drivers in India
Written byWe’re excited to announce our latest safety innovation for drivers and riders in India – Disguised Phone Numbers.
We are deploying our disguised phone number technology in India. This ensures that all calls between riders and driver-partners are connected using anonymous phone numbers — so both sides can communicate with each other to coordinate a pick-up without revealing their personal phone numbers.As always safety is our priority. And that’s why we are investing in new technology so that we can help ensure people’s safety before, during and after the ride.
