About this app

RIDE is the #1 transport hailing and booking platform in Ethiopia. You can call our dispatch center at 8294/taxi, or use RIDE FREE Passenger App to book/hail your next trip on the streets of Addis Ababa. NO surge pricing. Whether you need a ride to/from the airport, or a quick taxi service to get there on time, RIDE is the fastest and safest option in town. A pool of vehicles are on standby, on every corner, to service your needs, 24 hrs a day, 7 days a week, including Holidays.
Are you a tourist in Addis Ababa? You can pre-book a RIDE days ahead. A well-vetted RIDE member driver arrives outside your stay, on time for a pickup. Instead of waiting on a hotel shuttle to fill up, you can use RIDE Passenger App to get a cab in minutes from anywhere in Addis Ababa. You’ll feel safe and accomplished by the day’s end, because our drivers are keen to your absolute convenience.

Booking or hailing a taxi on RIDE is so simple:
- Set your initial location on a map
- Set your destination location on a map
- Set the payment and booking schedule, and confirm. No worries, drivers accept cash.
- A nearby driver calls you after accepting the order to verify your exact location
- You can also see the driver’s picture, vehicle license plate and side numbers, and a brief info on the driver. After completing a trip, you can request a paper-based receipt, or review our e-receipt sent out to your email automatically, upon payment confirmation.
How do we elevate your experience? If you have a special occasion or want to sign up for a monthly billable corporate account, you can call our dispatch center to get a full assistance.

This app needs to be updated. It frequently asks to restore activity while the app is opened and in use. I have requested support for multiple times but they wouldn't fix the issue. I have changed my device but still same result.

This app is fine, looks Good but it has issue with 1. location accuracy cannot update current location quickly as you drive fast. So that price calculations is wrong. How many times i have to call support with higher call cost just to get trip price. This should be fixed ASAP. 2. Drain battery device gets hot some times it does not work in background 3. Order start option from driver side is needed. sometimes passenger ask for round trip while its registered on system as single trip.
