Ridesharing

Hello Product manager, I was working on some b2b idea and one thing made me to research about D2C brands marketing on fintech apps through coupon cards. And i have seen D2C market getting good conversation rates than google ads. Even fintech also cracked this revenue stream because of users. But one thing i did not understand is why OLA, uber, rapido not going into ad things? When they can also provide coupon cards of brands when users completing rides? Every response will be helpful and it will be very insightful if you really work in this companies.

I am at my wits end. It takes 20-25 minutes just to get someone to accept my booking only for them to cancel. Almost roz ka hai! Bluesmart mein kabhi slots hi nahi milte! Ola, Uber, Rapido toh 20-25 min tak search hi karta rehta hai. Namma Yatri toh aur bhi hopeless hai! Please koi hack batao 🥲🙏🏻

Saw this on Twitter today. Tech Mahindra hiring graduates for 3.25 LPA and 24*7 Shift timing. I talked to various people to get an idea of their pay. A) A plumber lives near my house. He said he earns 2-3k daily and works for 20-25 days average. He earns 50-60k per month. B) Electrician earns in the same range. And other technicians and workers like this who are skilled earn a lot more than a software engineer. This is the hard reality. Students study for 16 years and pay 15-20 lacs college fees for this.

I remember there was a time I’d book a ride both on Uber and Ola, there was not so much to separate them. Ola is messed up now. Extremely poor app (vs Uber), longer waiting times, higher fares I know they’re focusing a lot on Ola Electric, but how does a company screw over their core business this way Is this similar for everyone? Anybody who knows what the strategy Ola now is?

Has ola stopped a bike taxi in Bangalore? Can't seem to find the option on the app.

Uber has been pretty slow to launch features - this one, otp to start rides, etc. Payment still feels broken to me I hate using Ola but they definitely have better features than Uber does

Damn, let me tell you how Ola has messed up the auto rickshaw industry! They came in acting all fancy, promising convenience and fair prices. But what do we get? Overcharging like crazy! Their surge pricing during peak hours is a complete rip-off. They take advantage of our desperation and squeeze every penny out of us. And who suffers the most? The hardworking folks who rely on auto rickshaws every day. But it doesn't stop there. Ola's profiteering tactics have destroyed the earning potential of auto rickshaw drivers. They used to have control over their fares and make a decent living. Now, Ola dictates the prices and leaves the drivers scraping for scraps. It's just not fair! They've disrupted the whole system, and not in a good way. The drivers are struggling, and we passengers are getting ripped off left and right. Ola, you've turned a once reliable and affordable mode of transportation into a nightmare. Shame on you!

Auto driver was harassing the person because he took rapido bike for his office. When will this stop in bengaluru why auto drivers consider them as don of Bengaluru?
