The transport authority on Saturday announced introduction of new taxi payment services. Passengers can now pay using Abu Dhabi Taxi app.
To use the service, passengers must pre-install the app, available for download on Apple Store and Google Play. They must create an account and provide details of their credit cards in the app to make the payment once the trip is over.
They may even pay directly through the app when booking a taxi or scan the QR code on the taxi metre screen.
The Integrated Transport Centre (ITC) of the Department of Municipalities and Transport (DMT) said its considering the provision of other payment means in future, such as e-purses, to provide passengers with diverse options for fare payment.
