UBER, the largest ridesharing platform in the world has officially announced a decision that can bring a very big change to the way we use the ridesharing platform at the moment. More precisely, those from UBER made the decision to buy Routematch, a US company that develops software for public transport companies, it being quite popular in this market segment, apparently with enough active customers.
UBER he did not say how much he spent on the company founded 20 years ago, but it developed software for ticketing, travel booking, dispatching, and fleet management. Based on this acquisition, those at UBER will have the opportunity to better integrate the information on public transport in the application that allows the ordering of cars for the daily trips made by customers from all over the world.
UBER: IMPORTANT decision for the Application, what IMPACT will it have
UBER it also sells tickets for shared public transport services, and this software can be extremely helpful to expand the range of services that the application offers for users. Of course, everything will initially be offered only in the USA, where the UBER people have a very large number of users, and where access to public transport data is very easy, in contrast to what we see in Romania, as well you know
UBER wants to expand the range of services it offers all over the world, and even if everything starts there at the moment, that doesn't mean that in Romania we won't enjoy something similar at some point. UBER will try to bring everything to as many countries as possible, as quickly as possible, but a lot depends on what is offered by the authorities, especially when it comes to public transport, as you well know.
UBER invests a lot of money after making serious layoffs at the beginning of the year, so the saved amounts go towards new initiatives, while the service starts to recover slowly, slowly.
