Talking about safety of women travellers, Anand Pal said: “There is proper documentation including police verification of our partner drivers. In an unlikely event of some mishap, the application has an emergency button on the home screen, which can connect the person in distress to the government helpline or our SOS helpline.”

The application is totally free for users and also completely free for drivers to enroll with us. It was informed that there is a referral system in the application also where people could earn from referring their friends. And the user shall receive 100 per cent cash back for their first ride payment. 

The service has taken all necessary measures on the COVID-19 safety protocols. "Our drivers and users shall be required to strictly follow all the COVID safety protocols. The vehicles shall be well sanitized and maintained, while the drivers shall be wearing the face masks all the time and the same goes for users," summed up Rajesh Chopra.
