How to launch your own-brand taxi app in days

The hard part isn't building the app anymore: it's running it with your brand, your rates and your drivers. Here's the short path to go live.

How to launch your own-brand taxi app in days

Running a mobility operation used to mean months of development and a tech team. Today the bottleneck is different: nailing your offer and configuring it well.

Start with your edge

Before touching the app, define what makes you different: coverage where the big players don't reach? fairer rates for drivers? local support? That edge is your brand, and it should show from the icon to the welcome message.

Configure, don't code

With a ready base you only set what changes: service types (economy, comfort, moto), base and per-kilometer fare, coverage zones and payment methods. All from a dashboard, no code.

  • Fares per service type
  • Scheduled rides
  • Cash or card payment
  • Zones and per-city rules

Publish under your account

The apps go under your name on the App Store and Google Play. Remember store accounts are a separate cost: Google charges 25 USD once and Apple 99 USD per year.

What's next

Launch with one zone and a handful of drivers, measure and tune fares. The advantage of having everything on one platform is that tomorrow you can switch on delivery or parcels in the same app, without starting over.
