Overview

What is a Curb Clone?

A Curb Clone is a ready-built taxi dispatch and booking platform modeled on Curb, the app that connects riders to licensed taxi drivers rather than private gig drivers. Curb reports more than 100,000 drivers across 65 cities in the US, UK, and Canada, and it links to almost every yellow and green cab operating across New York City's five boroughs — a scale that shows what a regulated-taxi network can look like once it is built out.

The rider app lets passengers book a ride instantly, track the assigned cab on a live map, pay securely, and review past trips. The driver app gives licensed drivers a way to accept or decline requests, navigate with GPS, manage earnings, toggle availability, and message passengers when needed. Because both apps are built around licensed fleets rather than open driver signup, you can decide during setup whether to keep that same licensed-only model or widen it to any vetted driver in your market.

Ownership

A Curb Clone vs. Operating on Curb's Own Network

Curb's real strength is deep integration with licensed taxi fleets in major US cities — but that also means its rules, markets, and economics are fixed by Curb. Owning your own platform removes those constraints.

Building on Curb

  • Reach is concentrated in the roughly 65 US, UK, and Canadian cities Curb already operates in — there is no path to launch your own new market on their network.
  • Only licensed, medallion-style taxi drivers can join; there is no option to open the platform to independent gig drivers if your market needs more supply.
  • Curb sets the commission structure and keeps the rider and trip data — an individual fleet operator has no reseller or franchise route into that revenue.
  • Pricing features like pair-and-pay code entry and tariff handling are pre-built for Curb's own partner cities, not yours.

Owning a Curb Clone

  • Launch in any city you choose, on your own timeline, without waiting on Curb's market rollout plans.
  • Decide whether to restrict onboarding to licensed taxi drivers, open it to vetted independent drivers, or run both side by side.
  • Set your own commission, fee structure, and monetization model, and keep every byte of rider and trip data in-house.
  • Configure fare rules, surcharges, and regulated tariffs yourself, matched exactly to the cities you actually serve.
Features

Licensed Taxi Dispatch & Urban Mobility Experience

Passenger / Rider App Features

Instant Taxi Booking & Dispatch

Licensed Taxi Network Access

Every ride runs through vetted, city-licensed taxi fleets rather than an open pool of private drivers, so passengers get a regulated standard of service on every trip.

Real-Time Driver & Vehicle Tracking

Watch the assigned cab move on the map, see the driver and vehicle details, and get an accurate ETA from pickup through drop-off.

Upfront Fare Estimates

Riders see an estimated fare before they confirm a booking, so pricing stays transparent even where regulated tariffs apply.

Ride Scheduling & Advance Reservations

Book a cab for right now or reserve one ahead of time for an airport run or an early meeting.

In-App Chat & Driver Communication

Message or call the assigned driver through masked, in-app contact so personal phone numbers stay private.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Curb Clone?

It is an on-demand dispatch and booking platform modeled on Curb, the app riders use to hail and pay for licensed taxis in cities such as New York, rather than an open network of private gig drivers.

How does a "pair and pay" style flow work?

A passenger who hails a taxi on the street opens the app and enters a code shown on the driver's screen. That pairs the trip to the app, so the passenger can pay digitally the moment the ride ends instead of handling cash or a card reader.

Can it handle government-regulated taxi pricing?

Yes. The admin panel lets you input exact municipal tariff models, including peak-hour surcharges, luggage fees, and flat cross-district rates, matching how licensed taxi markets like New York actually price fares.

How does the admin monetize the platform?

You can charge riders a fixed convenience fee per trip, take a percentage of the fare from the fleet operator, or bill taxi companies a recurring software access fee — the model is yours to set.

Can I list Wheelchair Accessible Vehicles (WAV)?

Yes. Vehicle category filters let passengers request specific configurations, including vans, sedans, or WAVs, so accessibility isn't an afterthought.

Does the platform support cash payments?

Yes. Riders can pay the driver in cash at the end of a trip, with the platform fee reconciled against the driver's digital wallet balance behind the scenes.
