Cabs were once considered to be a luxury and were used frequently only by people falling in a specific income group. Most people resorted to public transport as they were easily available and accessible. However, as we step onto the threshold of a new decade, optimization and generalization of cab services is a key takeaway from this decade.
The onset of uber came across as a breakthrough as it made hiring cabs and commuting easier. The success of the app also encouraged various other start-up enthusiasts to think in a similar direction and if you are among them, have a look at the basic business model of a taxi aggregator app to discuss in your next meeting with the Mobile App Development company.
Exclusive features to be considered
A taxi aggregator is not developed in a day but requires the developer to pay meticulous attention to details. Care has to be taken to develop an admin panel, driver app, and passenger app at the same time, each of which contains distinctive features.
Sign up process
An essential feature of the passenger app is the sign-up process which allows the app to track down the location of the customer as well as register the customer with the app, thus building the database. Sign up process must be made easy and quick for bringing the ease of use.
Location and positioning
GPS tracking is an indispensable element if you wish to develop a taxi aggregator app. Your customers will be more accepting if they receive real-time updates from the app. The cab must be tracked before and during the journey without any delay. Moreover, the calculation of fare must be done based on current situations. This means that the app must be made dynamic so that it can account for the changes in cab fares and taxes too.
Payment gateways
Payment is undoubtedly the most important part of the app and must be clearly envisioned before the app is launched. Nowadays, most apps have multiple payment gateways in addition to cash. You need to make the entire process quite seamless so as to maximize the user experience. For instance, some customers may want to make the payment prior to the journey, some during the journey, and rest after the journey.
Security features
While developing a taxi aggregator app, it is important to pay attention to the security-related features. The security of the user is of utmost importance and it is for this reason that the app must be enabled with SOS and emergency buttons too.
Bifurcation of cost
The cost can be a number that puts you on pressure. Prediction of cost is quite difficult to do because of the changing environment. However, while estimating the cost, the following costs must be incorporated-
· The platform was chosen for the app, android, windows or IOS
· Features to be included in the app
· The country in which app is to be developed
So, before you go for your next meeting with the Android App Development Company, make sure to consider these technicalities to deliver a perfect app.
