The Uber ban and its consequences – A peep into the Philippines taxi market\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The taxi giant Uber, just like any other country, established its taxi segment in the Philippines. However, it is said that Uber has breached the government\u2019s rules and regulations and failed to comply with the directions of the Land Transportation Franchising and Regulatory Board (LTFRB). Consequently, Uber was banned from operating in the Republic. One of the main accusations leading to the ban of the taxi giant is that it illegally raised the fare prices while not providing adequate safety.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The ban on Uber led to the Grab\u2019s rise, who made the most out of the situation. The taxi fares rose by 20-30%, increasing the people\u2019s expectations towards another taxi platform. It is at this time the Philippines-based startup Hype entered the picture. The platform is proving to be a dominant force in the country\u2019s taxi-hailing segment by offering safe rides at economical prices.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
