An innovative taxi service platform which utilizes mobile app to match passengers and nearby licensed taxi drivers in more than 260 major cities across China MoreLess

Kuaidi Dache was a Chinese-based mobile application that provided taxi-hailing services. The company was backed by Alibaba and was a major player in the Chinese ride-sharing market.

Its platform offered carpooling services, particularly targeting low-income groups, and provided assistance for the elderly. Kuaidi Dache also focused on initiatives to reduce carbon emissions and optimize public transportation. The application included a feature that allowed passengers to give drivers an extra tip, ranging from 5 to 20 yuan.

In a significant market consolidation, Kuaidi Dache merged with its main competitor, Didi Dache, in 2015. This merger created one of the largest smartphone-based transportation service providers in the world, which now operates as Didi Chuxing.
