Why TaxiNaija

Built here, for the way we move.

Global apps treat Nigeria as one more market. We are building TaxiNaija around Nigerian prices, Nigerian roads and the people who drive them.

Fair fares, shown up front

Our launch rate card is priced below the big ride apps, VAT included. You see the fare before you book, and that is what you pay.

Verified drivers

Every driver is checked before their first trip: driver's licence, NIN, vehicle papers and a guarantor who vouches for them.

Calls that keep numbers private

Call or chat with your driver inside the app. Neither of you sees the other's phone number.

Safety Centre and SOS

One tap reaches our safety team with your live location. Share your trip with family so they can follow along.

A local Nigerian brand

TaxiNaija Technologies LTD is registered in Nigeria (RC 9320671). Our support team understands Ibadan, and the money you spend stays with drivers in your community. Transportation made by us, for us.
