Schedule your ride

Your time. Your taxi. Your plan.

When your pickup time is already set, put piccab in the plan. Schedule your ride from 45 minutes to 7 days ahead, right in the app.

Plan today for tomorrow

For everything already in your calendar.

Leave early, arrive on time or skip organising after a long day. You choose the time and piccab keeps it in view.

Traveller with a suitcase getting into a taxi at a station

Early shift

Set the pickup the evening before and start without a morning phone call.

Airport or station

Pickup time, luggage and destination are settled before travel day begins.

Appointment, dinner, event

When the appointment is fixed, schedule the ride along with it.

How it works

Three steps. No phone call.

Scheduling stays as simple as booking a regular piccab ride.

  1. 01

    Choose your route

    Enter pickup and destination, just like an immediate ride.

  2. 02

    Set the pickup time

    Choose schedule, set the date and time, then check the summary.

  3. 03

    Track it under Scheduled

    Your planned ride stays in the scheduled-rides view until pickup.

After booking

You know what happens next.

A scheduled ride is not a silent entry. You can see it in the app and later see which taxi will pick you up.

Right away

Saved under Scheduled

Date, time, route, fare estimate and ride preferences stay together.

Once accepted

Taxi and contact appear

Once a driver accepts your ride, the app shows the assignment and contact options.

15 min before

Pickup becomes active

If no driver is assigned yet, piccab automatically starts the regular dispatch for your ride.

Questions about scheduled rides

How far ahead can I schedule a taxi?

You can schedule a pickup from 45 minutes to 7 days ahead. The app only shows times you can select.

Can I change a scheduled ride later?

You can edit your note. To change the time, route, taxi type or ride preferences, cancel the scheduled ride and book it again.

Can I cancel a scheduled ride?

Yes. You can cancel planned rides from the scheduled-rides view. piccab currently does not charge a cancellation fee for scheduled rides.

Is the fare fixed when I schedule?

No. The app shows an estimated fare range. You pay the actual metered taxi fare, plus any paid ride options you selected.

Is a driver assigned right away?

Not necessarily. Drivers can accept scheduled rides in advance. If nobody is assigned 15 minutes before pickup, regular dispatch starts automatically. Scheduling therefore does not guarantee pickup.

How do I pay for a scheduled ride?

As with every piccab ride, you pay in the taxi by card or cash.
