One of the platforms that is causing the most talk today is the famous MyTaxi platform, which is a group of taxi drivers and users that allow you to quickly find a taxi.
MyTaxi was born as a kind of social network between taxi drivers and individuals, with the aim that normal people could easily find a taxi anywhere and at any time. After a few months passed, the app has millions of users and millions of workers, all of whom earn money through the app.
Actually, the way the application works is that of granting taxi rides to certain taxi drivers, that is, the application really looks for rides from taxi drivers in exchange for a small commission for what they earn.
Here everyone wins, since the application earns money, people get a taxi ride comfortably through the mobile phone and the taxi driver quickly increases his client base.
This service could be reminiscent of other companies such as Uber , however, mytaxi is slightly different, since Uber has taxi drivers apart, who do not have a driving license or the license that taxi drivers pay for. On the other hand, in mytaxi all the taxi drivers are professional taxi drivers, with their license, their self-employment and their current legislation.
This makes this application one of the most popular, since it does not harm the taxi sector or impose abusive rates on customers. This platform allows you to order a taxi from your mobile, pay from there and have the taxi driver take you wherever you want, planning everything before it arrives.
If you want to learn how to use this platform that will forever change the way you see taxis, you are in the right place, since I am going to explain step by step how this platform works, so that you can use it and get the most out of it.
Instructions for how MyTaxi works
- Download the application and create an account: The first thing we must do to enjoy this application is to download its official application. This app is available on the two major mobile phone platforms in the worlde. Android and iOS. This application will allow you to make yourself known in this world, allowing you to connect with taxi drivers and let them know your location in real time. Once you have downloaded and installed the application either from Google Play if you are Android or from the App Store if you are iOS, you must give the option to register. Here we will be asked for personal information such as name, email… We will also be asked for a form of payment, which is paid before taking a taxi ride.
- Search for a race: Once we have created a MyTaxi account, we already have the option of looking for a taxi race, that is, the option of looking for a taxi driver who will take us to a certain place. MyTaxi is very easy to use, since all we have to do is open the application in the place where you want to be picked up and then wait for the available taxis to appear. Now you must dial in the taxi, choose the route you want to take and wait for the platform to assign the route to the nearest taxi. Unlike Uber, Mytaxi does not go by taxi drivers, but by routes, that is, the nearest taxi driver will be automatically assigned to us.
- Pay: Once we have chosen the desired route, it is the moment that we all like the least, since it is time to pay the account. In MyTaxi you pay in advance, as they are company rules. Do not worry if you are a distrustful person, since mytaxi has a protection system against fraud, which will return the money in case the agreement with the taxi driver is not complied with. Once you have paid with your preferred payment method, you must wait for the taxi driver to arrive and pick you up, telling you that you are from mytaxi and automatically taking you to your destination by the shortest possible route.
- Evaluate: As in other applications such as Uber, MyTaxi has a system to evaluate other users, a system that consists of a system of points that you can award. The time to evaluate comes when the trip has finished, in which we are going to evaluate the taxi driver who has taken us. If the trip has been correct and has even been fast, we must evaluate this person positively. If, on the other hand, the trip has been bad, we must do it negatively. The real objective of the rating system is to offer feedback to the other users, since they will see how a taxi driver is good or bad. A good taxi driver will have a reputation and mytaxi will give him more routes and a bad taxi driver could even be kicked off the platform.
