SafeKab’s Mission is Safety
SafeKab is on a mission to make travel around Inverness safer and more reliable than ever. Passengers should feel empowered to move around Inverness without fear or feeling vulnerable in any way.
SafeKab is committed to putting the power to choose back in YOUR hands. Giving you complete transparency about who’s picking you up and allowing you to track your journey in real-time. Safety means everything to SafeKab and the raft of safety features poured into the SafeKab app means you’ll never have to feel at risk again as you travel around Inverness.
SafeKab Safety Features
The Power to Choose
SafeKab aims to give users the power to make the best decisions for their taxi trips in Inverness. With the app, passengers can choose the car or driver that meets their needs and preferences, providing them with all the necessary details to make an informed decision.
SafeKab recognizes the vital role that drivers play in ensuring safety for the community they serve. To enable them to work smarter and safer, the app provides full transparency to drivers with details of each job and passenger. Additionally, passengers are also given the option to choose their preferred driver and car, further enhancing their safety and peace of mind.
At Inverness Taxis, we understand that having a safe journey is essential, but we also believe that it should be an enjoyable experience. That’s why we’re excited about the SafeKab star rating system where passengers and drivers can rate each other. This ensures that every ride is comfortable and enjoyable for everyone involved.
Safety Code
Another safety feature of the app is the SafeKab safety code system. Before your journey begins, you’ll receive a unique code that you’ll need to match with your driver’s code. This small but effective step ensures you’re getting into the right vehicle and increases your safety and confidence in the whole process.
Journey Monitoring
When you’re travelling alone it can be so important to stay in touch with your loved ones. With the SafeKab app, you can track your journey in real-time and even share your location with your loved ones. This way, you and your loved ones can relax knowing you’re safe and confirm that you’ve arrived at your destination. This will give you and your loved one’s the confidence that you’re safe and sound even when travelling alone.
Panic Button
The SafeKab app comes with a handy ‘panic button’ feature whenever you feel unsafe or need help during your journey. Simply press the on-screen button and both Inverness Taxis’ local Church Street Office and an appointed friend or family member will be notified that help is needed and your exact location. This feature is also available to our drivers, ensuring that both passengers and drivers have the confidence to go about the journey without any fear.
SafeKab Credit
Parents or employers can deposit money in the handy SafeKab wallet stored in the app. This is great for making sure young people get home no matter what they’ve spent on their night home, or so employees’ or customers’ rides are taken care of with no money or cards having to change hands. SafeKab credit is a great feature that makes true contact-free travel possible.
SafeWalk
The SafeWalk feature is something that we are very excited about. There is nothing worse than that vulnerable feeling you get when having to walk home alone, especially at night. With the FREE SafeWalk feature found in-app, you can share your route, position, and destination with a contact through the app, and they can track your journey in real-time. This means you’ll never have to walk alone again!
Not only that, the SafeWalk feature utilises the SafeKab panic button, so you can feel even more secure knowing that just one click of the on-screen button will notify our local office and a designated friend or family member/loved one that help is needed along with a notification of your exact location. This means, should you feel threatened in any way, help will be on the way immediately!
SafeWalk is a fantastic tool for students, schools, families, lone women, and anyone who might feel vulnerable while travelling alone. But it’s also a great tool for any visitor to Inverness. The SafeWalk feature will help tourists and visitors find their way back to their hotel or out to dinner or a cheeky drink, allowing their fellow travellers or loved ones to keep a watchful eye over their journey.
