MyTaxi

Editorial

A map you can explain out loud

Johannesburg fares go sideways when nobody names waiting time. MyTaxi puts base, distance and wait beside an OpenStreetMap view of the city, then stores the trip on your device. No dispatch theatre. No account required to estimate.

Riders stay free. Drivers can trial the desk for seven days, then R299 a month if the habit is worth paying for.

Read the long guides for airport corridors, night safety, and how to dispute a number without turning the kerb into a stage. Every guide ships as full HTML — the words are in the first response, not painted in by a spinner.

Same estimate maths. A desk habit for people who quote corridors for a living. PayFast checkout appears when merchant keys are connected; otherwise you will see “Checkout coming online”.

Estimate

Plain levers you can defend at the boot.

Log

Forty trips teach more than a motivational thread.

Review

Weekly three-line ritual. Yield over vibes.
