Auckland, NZ – 3 October 2025
YourRide, New Zealand’s No.1 taxi app, has officially become the country’s most widely available ground transportation service - operating in 15 towns and cities nationwide, with full coverage from Whangārei to Invercargill.
That’s a footprint no other taxi or rideshare platform can match.
Backed by a network of over 2,000 registered taxis, YourRide offers local passengers and business travellers access to safe, reliable transport with real-time tracking, transparent pricing, and pre-booking options - all from one easy-to-use app.
Local Reach, National Reliability
YourRide now operates in:
Auckland, Hamilton, Tauranga, Rotorua, Taupō, Napier, Hastings, New Plymouth, Levin, Wellington, Nelson, Christchurch, Queenstown, Dunedin, and Invercargill.
In each location, YourRide partners with trusted, full-time local taxi operators. YourRide only works with professionally licensed, police-vetted drivers, providing a consistent and regulated experience that passengers can count on.
Why Nationwide Matters
From early flights in Auckland to late-night meetings in Christchurch, nationwide coverage means passengers can rely on YourRide wherever they go, without needing to download a new app or hope a driver is nearby.

What Sets YourRide Apart
- No.1 for Nationwide Coverage
- No surge pricing — fares are fair, not unpredictable
- Fixed fares are available on high-demand routes like airports
- Over 90% of the fare goes to the driver — YourRide funds most promotions, not drivers
- All vehicles have in-car security cameras for peace of mind
- Hybrid and EV vehicles make up the majority of the fleet
- Locally owned and operated, reinvesting in Kiwi communities
“YourRide was built by locals, for locals. This milestone reflects our commitment to safer, fairer, and more accessible transport across the country,” says Conrad Heaven, Chief Marketing Officer.
More Than Just a Ride
YourRide is a smarter, more ethical way to get from A to B - built on decades of experience in New Zealand’s taxi industry, and powered by a network of real people who know the communities they drive in.
