I am Taxi Introduces 'Fixed Fare System' for Confirmed Taxi Fares When Calling a Taxi

[Asia Economy Reporter Yuri Choi] Jin Mobility, the mobility platform operating i.M Taxi, announced on the 22nd that it will implement a ‘Pre-Confirmed Fare System’.

The Pre-Confirmed Fare System is a fare system that calculates and confirms the fare to the destination based on GPS information including time, distance, and speed calculations, as well as ▲optimal driving route ▲real-time congestion sections ▲road traffic conditions. It is applied to all i.M Taxi call services, including immediate calls.

With the implementation of the Pre-Confirmed Fare System, customers who have registered for automatic payment on the i.M Taxi app can prepay the confirmed fare before boarding. Unregistered customers can pay the confirmed amount notified after the ride ends. If the destination is changed or a stopover is added at the customer's request, the fare will be recalculated. For roaming passengers, the existing meter-based fare will apply as before.

The company expects the Pre-Confirmed Fare System to increase trust in fares. Users will be relieved of concerns about fare increases during travel, and drivers are expected to be free from fare disputes.

A Jin Mobility official said, “i.M Taxi has innovatively improved taxi industry practices such as ride refusals and reckless driving through forced dispatch and thorough safety training,” adding, “The Pre-Confirmed Fare System, which operates with promised fares, will also enhance the value of customers’ travel and serve as an opportunity for domestic mobility services to evolve to the next level.”
