Advantages
Why Digital Taxi Meter
The advantage of DTM is that it digitizes an existing behaviour instead of trying to replace it. Taxis keep operating the way the market already works — the meter becomes digital, configurable and recorded.
Product advantages
What the product offers
No physical taxi meter required
The driver's smartphone becomes part of a digital taxi-meter system — no dedicated hardware installation.
Actual distance, not an assumed route
The fare follows the journey actually made, so passenger and driver stay free to choose the route they consider appropriate.
Digitally recorded trips
Trips are recorded and documented instead of disappearing as an untracked cash ride.
Driver and vehicle documentation
Driver identification and vehicle information are attached to the trip.
Trusted-contact sharing
Passengers can share driver, vehicle and start-time details with people they trust.
Transparent digital calculation
The trip is calculated by the system and the final fare is displayed to both sides.
Tariffs adapted to local markets
Base fare, distance, additional time, minimum fare and fare tiers are configured per market rather than imposed globally.
No taxi booking required
DTM works with the transport market that already exists instead of requiring passengers to book through an app.
No centralized ride-hailing fleet
The model does not depend on operating or dispatching a fleet.
Driver records
Driver trip and revenue records, wallet and account information and driver reports.
Passenger records
Passenger trip records for completed trips.
Built to cross borders
Designed to expand across different countries and local taxi markets, with central administration retained by UP2TOP.
Evidence
Measured, recorded, reviewable
Cost-efficient by design
DTM is designed around a cost-efficient technology infrastructure, allowing local partners to focus their resources on market growth. This is a design objective, not a claim of zero operating cost.
Built for local markets
Why the product can scale internationally
The core technology can be deployed across different countries while the local market is understood and managed locally.
UP2TOP retains central control over the technology and the core platform. The Country Partner studies the local market and submits recommendations.
