Orders are received by the number: +7 (8412) 444-000.

A special programme that analyses offers of Penza taxi parks in terms of travel cost and availability of a car in a specified area helps to find the best option to travel around the city.

First the programme makes a request to the taxi park which charges a minimum of 20 roubles per trip. If there is an available car nearby, it is assigned to the client, which they learn from an autoinformer. If there are no available cars, the programme turns to another taxi park with a minimum fare of 30 roubles and so on. This allows finding a taxi with a minimum fare," head of Mnogo Taxi Ivan Legostaev told PenzaNews.

He explained than on average the search takes from 1 to 5 minutes as the company collaborates with a large number of taxi parks.

"If desired, it is possible to find a car where the client will be able to pay by card. In this case, the search is conducted among taxi companies that have a terminal," the interlocutor added.

According to Ivan Legostaev, currently the service is being actively tested and once all identified defects have been eliminated, it will be launched in other regions of company's presence including the Pskov and Novgorod regions.

He drew special attention to the fact that Mnogo Taxi aims to introduce innovation to save time and money of passengers.

"The company's history is a history of an innovation taxi service, which started to use GPS technologies and to choose drivers by their coordinates in a time when others were still using portable radio transmitters. Mnogo Taxi is improving day by day even nowadays," Ivan Legostaev emphasized.
