Top Uber rival across Europe, Africa set to launch in Accra

Taxify, Europe and Africa’s fastest-growing ride-hailing platform, is set to launch in Accra, Ghana with a unique vision to change the way people move in the city.

The ride-hailing platform is built on a simple idea – that happier drivers equal happier riders.

Taxify believes that by treating drivers better than any other platform by taking only 15% commission per trip from drivers as opposed to 25% charged by competitors currently,they can create an open, efficient and sustainable transportation ecosystem.

Taxify believes that a situation with happy drivers means better quality service for riders and that in treating its drivers with respect, allowing them to earn more and providing a range of safeguards and features that help them work in the way that suits them best, they will be in turn provide superior ride experiences to riders.

It also believes in providing exemplary customer service to riders, with a local customer support team and the option to pay via cash or card.

Taxify already operates in 19 countries worldwide, including neighbouring countries like Nigeria, Kenya and South Africa and has seen huge success with its fairer, more transparent ride-hailing service.

The Artistic Mind of a Criminal

I used to have a client who is a professor when it comes to art, paintings and antiques. He paints one portrait and makes millions out of it and that really fascinated me so much that I started doing some research into the Art, paintings and antiques industry. I discovered that the painting industry in Ghana is very small and young but elsewhere in the world, it is a huge industry which contributes significantly to the economy of these countries. The USA economy in 2014 and 2015 benefited US$730 billion and US$763.6 billion respectively from the Art, Paintings and Antiques sector(1). US$12 billion (£9.2 billion) was contributed to the UK GDP in 2016 from the Art and Painting sector(2) with Singapore’s Art and Painting contributing S$2.13 billion to the GDP in 2013(3).
