Introducing Vum Ride | Launching Soon!

We have seen taxi apps try to replace the taxi business but the latest player in the industry, Vum Ride is trying to do something different – to automate the taxi business for everyone by giving people options that were not there before and creating a system that provides equitable fare rates for both the passenger and driver.

What is it that we love so much about Vum Ride? Well for starters, this is the first taxi app we have seen with the coolest name yet. The word ‘Vum’ resonates with every Nigerian as it is probably the most frequently used word among Nigerians in our daily run around. If you’re Nigerian, chances are high that you’ve ‘Vum’ in your lifetime or someone has used the word ‘Vum’ around when driving or planning to move from one place to the other. So we think the name is a big win for the company – THIS LOOKS GOOD FOR TEAM VUM RIDE.

As for the services, again Vum Ride takes it a step further by giving the passengers five ride service options (Cab, Delivery, Interstate, Hiring, and Bid); and also gives passengers the option to either pay with cash, wallet, or card. No other taxi app before now has given this much room for passengers to breathe so it is perfectly right to say Vum Ride is a breath of fresh air in the transportation industry.

Now you want to ask, ‘So, how can I use the app to get a taxi?’ and the answer is SIMPLE: download the app ‘Vum Ride’ from the Google play store or the Apple Store, sign up and you can immediately begin to request a taxi. It is that easy and it is completely FREE to download.

Vum Ride is also open to partnerships with individuals who want to buy a car for the sole purpose of doing taxi work and making good money monthly. So how this works is you buy a car or if you already have an acceptable car by Vum Ride standards, you contact the company and put your car under their management to be used for the taxi business and you get paid handsomely at the end of every week/month.

What makes this story extremely cool and why you should definitely use this app is that Vum Ride is one of the early indigenous taxi apps in Nigeria and possibly Africa as a whole so this is our own home-grown product and it will only be right to support it. The founders, Emeka Odidika and Chukwuemeka Willian are two Nigerian entrepreneurs dedicated to effecting change in the country and on the continent.

So far the news about Vum Ride is music to the ears as the first set of passengers and drivers who used the app during its pilot phase all have nothing but praise for the app. We are hearing good things and the company is promising to keep their business very community focused and never shift their stand on constantly tailoring the app to solving the problems of the average commuter in the country.

Vum Ride gives first-time riders a 30-day 5% discount and other weekly, monthly, and yearly incentives which include, Tvs, Irons, Fridges, Hot-Plates, Air conditioners, motorcycles, and Toyota Corolla.
