Tikup is a newly established internet taxi startup that has assigned its pricing to the passenger and unlike its competitors, it has not done any prescriptive pricing.
According to Iran digital economy annotation, Tikup Internet Taxi has designed a new type of service and says that the main difference between this Internet taxi and its competitors is in these details, and so far passengers and drivers have had little “right to choose” for travel and transportation.
The statistics of the number of installs and downloads of Tikup application on Myket and Bazaar show that this application has been installed about five thousand times on the Bazaar platform, two thousand on Myket and one thousand on Google Play, which shows that compared to Snapp and Tapsi It has acquired a very low value.
Saman Kargar, the “Operations Manager of Tikup“, says, referring to the basic differences of Tikup: The main challenge of Tikup is changing the style of the transportation system. The difference between Tikup and other competitors such as Snapp, Tapsi and Maxim is its pricing. In Tikup, the passenger specifies the price of the trip, and no pricing is done by the application, and price changes due to the change of year or the increase of taxi rates by the city council do not affect the Tikup travel rate. This is despite the fact that Snapp recently faced a challenge due to the removal of the “I’m in a hurry” option, and the users of this application reported the increase in the price of travel services after the removal of this option.
Kargar went on to say: One of the differences between Tikup and other internet taxis is that Tikup allows local telephone taxis that were operating in the past and now have become less popular due to the boom of internet taxis, can use the same name and logo in Have a checkup activity. These agencies are often trusted by the residents of the neighborhood in their service area, and Tikup is designed in such a way that it can provide its panel to these agencies.
In this application, the Tikup team has designed a system where the passenger can specify the type of car that will be served before requesting a taxi in Tikup. In this way, in addition to the general public, certain individuals or organizations can choose the VIP service.
