App Profile: Taxiapp UK: London Black Cab

The only black taxi app run by London cab drivers, Taxiapp puts all the capital at your fingertips. And just as importantly, we're the only app where all the fare on the meter goes to your driver.

Ride-hailing made easy
Taxi hire at the touch of a button. To book a black cab, just confirm your location, select your destination, track your driver's arrival and then away you go.

Pre-tipping feature

You now have the option to pre-tip drivers when requesting a taxi. Which is great for when you really have to get somewhere, as it increases your chances of a driver accepting your ride.

Driver owned & operated
There’s no fat cats here. Taxiapp is run by drivers for drivers, with all the fare going into your cabbie's pocket. They also enjoy a profit share too.

Booking fee
Unlike other apps, our drivers get 100% of the fare on the meter. To enable us to do this, we do however charge our passengers a booking fee of £3.00 (inc vat).

Pre-book or hail now options
If you’ve got to get to the airport, to a meeting or just home after a night out, you can use Taxiapp to book a cab in advance. Or you can just e-hail whenever you’re ready.

Powered by The Knowledge
Our drivers have to memorise 25,000 London roads to get The Knowledge, you just need to download Taxiapp to get wherever you need to go.

5 & 6 seaters
All licensed black cabs can take five or six passengers, so are perfect for groups. Or very spacious if you’re on your own.

Accessible to all
All Taxiapp cabs are wheelchair accessible and have hearing loops. Assistance dogs are also welcome.

Safety first approach
You can share your trip, so friends and family know you’re en-route and all drivers are fully vetted as part of being a licensed black taxi driver.
