For what purposes was the company created

Uber Corporation was established in San Francisco. The original goal is to transport VIP customers on high-end cars.

Later, the company's specialists developed a more democratic service - UberX. Machines of lower class were allowed. A trip to a subsidiary company costs customers much cheaper.

Despite all the changes, stylish cars for high-level customers remained the face of the company. About work in the "Uber" -taxi driver reviews only the most positive.

If there is no trust in the service, or the desire to transfer data, you can create a virtual card using online payment systems (WebMoney, "Yandex Money" and others). The main thing is that the money has already been transferred to the card.

Uber in other countries

This service is primarily intended for residents of America. In the US, the company maximizes its turnover.

According to statistics, the average number of orders is 3 million. Most of them are in the USA.

The system by order of a taxi is not perceived equally positively in all countries. There are protests among the classic services for the transportation of passengers.

Britain is the main opponent of this system. Taximeters are banned in the country. Instead of the tariff for mileage, passengers pay a fixed amount for delivery, which is unacceptable in Uber -taxi. (Reviews of the company are nevertheless the most positive in Russia.)

For similar reasons, the protest spread in Europe, which speaks only of the high competitiveness of the service compared to traditional taxi services.

Uber Taxi in Russia

In order for the service to develop in Russia, it is necessary not only for its rapid growth, but also for a drastic change in the national public opinion. The system is good for a society where there are enough free drivers on high-end cars. This will help meet demand.

The service needs to trust in non-cash payments. Often a bank card in Russia is just a key to money, which you must immediately withdraw from the phone.

In the capital, the system is fully functional, but this does not guarantee that its work will spread to all regions. It is assumed that "Uber" in Russia will become only a premium-class service by order of a taxi and will spread only to wealthy customers.

As one of variants of the further development work through other services of a taxi under the partner contract is represented.

The application on the phone is able to display the highlighted color on the map information about which part of the city is now the largest number of orders. It is necessary to drive closer to that territory. After that, orders will begin to arrive. The application will include the client's name, his phone number for communication, the place where he is at the moment, and the point on the city map - where he needs to be delivered.

After the trip is completed, you need to click the appropriate button on your smartphone. That's the whole procedure.
