Checked value by value
Before a tariff goes live, every value is checked against the official document, and the engine must match fares worked out by hand. How we test it

Every tariff change and correction is listed with its date on the changes page. See the changes

Questions
Where do the fares come from?
From the tariff each city's regulator publishes, such as Transport for London or the NYC Taxi and Limousine Commission. Every city page links to its sources.
Why might my fare be different?
Traffic, the route the driver takes, tolls and extras such as booking fees. Each quote shows a range from light to heavy traffic.
Are tips and tolls included?
Tips never are. Tolls are only included where the tariff includes them, and the quote says so.
How often are tariffs checked?
Every source is checked weekly for changes, and every tariff is re-verified at least once a year.
