Commuters using ride-hailing app Ryde can book taxis from Trans-Cab through the app's private-hire booking option from next month
A new ride-hailing app will make its debut in Singapore within the next two weeks, making it the third firm to enter the market since Uber's departure.
Home-grown ride-hailing app firm Ryde, in a bid to jostle with Grab and fellow newcomers, has gotten off to a good start since its launch on 2nd May.
Taxis and private-hire cars will now be installed with inward-facing video cameras to aid in the fight against fare cheats and abusive passengers.
Local carpooling app Ryde has started a new service to help parents carpool their children to school, to rival an existing service by another firm.
The taxi industry has come under stiff competition from apps Uber and Grab, which already offer users the opportunity to share their private-hire car rides.
Ryde, a local carpool app which was launched in April, has found favour with investors, raising $1.5 million in its seed-round funding that ended last week.
