Benefits of using a temporary phone number for OnTaxi

OnTaxi is a convenient ride-hailing application that connects passengers with drivers, making it easy to book a ride from your smartphone. Like all ride-sharing apps, registration requires phone verification to ensure the safety of both riders and drivers. However, sharing your personal number can have privacy drawbacks. Using a temporary phone number to sign up for OnTaxi is a smart way to protect your information.

Protect Your Privacy on Every Ride

When you take a taxi, you are briefly connecting with a stranger. While OnTaxi has safety measures in place, using your real phone number for your account links your travel patterns to your core personal identity. A virtual number allows you to complete the verification process without disclosing this private information. This ensures your trip history is not directly tied to your personal number, giving you peace of mind on every journey.

Prevent Unwanted Off-Platform Contact

Though communication is typically handled through the app, glitches or other situations could potentially expose your number to a driver. Using a disposable phone number for registration eliminates the risk of receiving unwanted calls or messages outside of the app, both during and after your ride. It ensures that all communication remains strictly professional and within the confines of the platform.

Avoid Targeted Advertising and Spam

Ride-hailing apps collect a significant amount of data, including your location and travel habits. This information can be used for targeted marketing. By using a temporary number for the initial SMS verification, you can shield your primary phone line from being used for promotional purposes. This helps keep your inbox clean and ensures your travel data isn't used to send you unsolicited ads.
