BOOKARIDE is here to take you where you want to go. Let us be your preferred transportation service. 2. We are a ride-sharing application. 3. The rates are highly competitive and may be cheaper than you would pay in a regular taxi. 4. It is safer and securer than the taxi service. We offer: *• Live tracking - The live tracking feature in the Book-A-Ride app, would allow us to give the customer an ETA of the car they have booked. It would also allow users to share their travel location with their friends or family during travel to enhance their safety. * • Accessibility - Easy accessibility is a key feature of our service – this is especially true for an app like Book-A-Ride. Customers can book a car from nearly anywhere without having to call several times, stand on the road flagging one down or waiting unnecessarily. Our cars will be there in the shortest possible time once the booking is done. • Ability to choose between vehicles – One of the unique offers is the ability of the customer to choose their own car. This enhances the customer experience and makes for a more enjoyable experience. • Cashless payment options - The cashless payment options would be the first of its kind in Guyana for ground transportation services and would allow customers to pay the fare via debit or credit cards or online pay vendors like PayPal. This makes the ride even better, as the customer does not have to worry about carrying monies around.
