Vinataxi, VNPAY team up for easier taxi service via e-wallet, banking app
Vinataxi, a member of Vietnamese conglomerate Bamboo Capital Group, and VNPAY have started their partnership in making it faster and easier for booking a Vinataxi cab via "Call Taxi" from the latter's e-wallet and mobile banking application.
VNPAY is known as the leading provider of electronic payment solutions in Vietnam. It has cooperated with more than 40 banks to build and develop mobile banking apps integrating a diverse digital ecosystem from basic financial transactions like money transfers, phone top-ups, and electricity and water bill payments to advanced utilities including air ticket booking, hotel reservation, train, car and taxi booking, movie ticket purchase and VnShop retail.

As the new partnership is in place, Vinataxi customers can utilize their mobile banking app or VNPAY e-wallet quickly and conveniently, with prices clearly and transparently displayed. They no longer have to worry about price hikes at peak hours or during bad weather.
In addition, Vinataxi also uses VNPAY SmartPOS in its service process. This is a solution that integrates many functions on one device like payment, invoice printing and transaction confirmation. Especially, it is the only device that accepts all forms of payment by QR code, bank card, and VNPAY's e-wallet.

- Step 1: Log in to a mobile banking app or VNPAY e-wallet and select "Call Taxi"
- Step 2: Enter departure and destination
- Step 3: Select taxi firm, discount code (if any) and click "Book"
- Step 4: End the trip, confirm the payment, and complete the transaction.
“Call Taxi” is available on VNPAY e-wallet and mobile banking apps like Eximbank EDigi, HDBank App, VietABank EzMobile, IVB Mobile Banking, and Saigonbank Smartbanking.
