The moment I read “Holy”, i thought this was a religious project. Maybe a cab ran by a church or some religious body. Also consider the environment you will be operating in, what will come to the people’s mind?
Thanks ode, Your #2cents is actually on point. We appreciate the feedback

Lol @ndy40. Your feedback means the world to us. Keep them coming.
I want to use your cab to transport bag of weed from one junction to another. Can I still call it Holy? Or do you have another name for customers who wants to use your cab for operation like this?
Remain blessed.
The moment most people read bout the promo. wat comes to mind is a string of words which i may not be permitted to write here , kinda like holy ***t!!. Alotta folks have been asking if its really possible to have rides as pocket friendly as holycab. Sign up request for your promo code and find out on October 1st. Im part of the holycab team; we’ve worked hard on building a model that not only takes from the app users but gives as well .
We chose the name cos it captures the essence of our service .A surprise too good to be true but yet is. Alot of our drivers and riders are excited bout having the opportunity to earn extra while working and also still earn after they retire or switch jobs as their referee’s/customers make use of their individual promo codes.
LOL, I dont even know where to begin, your Biz model is largely based on a Coupons forgetting there are 2 sides to e-taxi service and im sorry but i am not convinced on how long this business or company will last even before you begin…

Supply and Demand Metrics and Relationship: Currently most drivers are switching to Afro, Uber, Redcabs and the rest , how will you ensure you get enough drivers to your side? What packages are lined up for them?, where will your cars be running from? Starting from a city other than Lagos? Supply and Demand metrics done?( Dont assume, do you have actual numbers, have you onboarded at least 1000 drivers currently? Trained them? Certified them? Verified Cars to be on the site? What is your unique Value prop other than getting a coupon based on referrals that other services do and market largely for?, if basing this is your biz model, i think you need to seriously pause and rethink. From a customers side, why would i use you? Are you cheaper than the rest?, Are you fast, Will your service be better( Think about this well before you respond), What is your USP to me a client other than a coupon for referring 1 or 2 friends???.

Operations: Do you have experienced people running the show who know the nitty gritty of the business, who will you partner with to drive cost down, fuel, maintenance, legal, insurance, tune up, recertification( Lagos State is cracking down on unlicensed taxi services currently), are your service 24/7, is the software user friendly to hail taxis? Why choose the name Holycab, its a really corny name, i may forgive that if you get everything right, i would be waiting for answers but if you are going into the biz with a wrong assumption or not niching or out thinking the current leader Uber i will ask you again to…Pause and rethink, October 1st is still 2 days away, things can be done.
Goodluck sha.
@Freshboi_Ekundayo, We really value this feedback. We have on-boarded over 200 drivers and are still on-boarding. Driver training, certification, re-orientation and on-boarding is a continuous process.
Why will @Freshboi_Ekundayo, use @holycab service? Am cheaper! Do you know that you and the driver can pause a ride while you dash into a near-by shop to get grocery? The cost will be very much reduced. Are you planning to go to any city in Nigeria on independence day or anytime soon? We schedule inter-city rides! Plus lots more.
Finally, our team is made-up of experienced and passionate people who know their onions when it comes to e-taxi service. From studies, no start-up gets it 100% before going live. Upgrades and updates are the brain-box of successful ventures!!
Your opinion was great, as we look forward to hearing of your experience on @holycab
