To reduce the cost of taxi travel, passengers need to avoid rush hours, look for promotional codes and special cards, and also avoid hailing cars in industrial areas. Taxi aggregator companies reported this to socialbites.ca.
“To save money, you can order a taxi at times when travel demand is not maximum. On weekdays, peak load starts at 6.30 am and ends at 9 am. Standard prices are valid throughout the day, and demand increases in the evening, when people return home from work – from 17 to 19 o’clock,” the press service of the Maxim taxi ordering service told socialbites.ca.
The cheapest time to take a taxi on weekends is the morning, and the increasing demand continues until 23:00 on Friday. Also, Maxim noted that you can save 10-20 rubles on your trip if you order the car through the application and not by phone.
General Director of Citymobil and Taxovichkof Dmitry Kovalenko recommended using cash refunds on trips and discount codes provided by banks to save on taxis.
“The first and most obvious way to save money on a taxi is to find the taxi’s promotional code online. For example, we publish them regularly. Also speaking to socialbites.ca, Kovalenko said that there are many refund programs that have a “taxi” category or have special conditions for individual aggregators.
It will be easier and often cheaper to move away from densely populated areas. He added that the order density in the conditional industrial zone is low and drivers will not be “on duty” there waiting for orders.
Kovalenko concluded: “Taxi is cheapest during the hours when there is least traffic (day and night on weekdays, daytime on weekends).”
