In Nigeria, the cost of a ride with Paddim (similar to other E-hailing Apps) is influenced by several factors, including the city, the distance of the trip, time spent in traffic, and any dynamic (or surge) pricing at the moment.

How Paddim Fares are Calculated:

  1. Base Fare: This is the initial charge for pickup and varies by city. For example, in Owerri, the base fare might start from 870, while in Enugu , it could be lower, around 700.
  2. Per Kilometre Rate: This is the cost per kilometre driven during your trip. For instance, Owerri has a rate of 160 per kilometre.
  3. Per Minute Rate: This covers the time spent on the road, typically around 30 per minute in high-demand cities like Owerri.
  4. Minimum Fare: Regardless of how short your trip is, there’s a minimum fare that ensures drivers are adequately compensated. In cities like Owerri, this is around 1470.

Paddim trip pricing

Paddim, like other Taxi Service Company, also uses dynamic pricing to balance rider demand and driver availability. When there are more riders than drivers, prices temporarily increase to incentivize drivers to accept more trips.

Getting an Estimate:

Once you input your destination and pick-up point into the Paddim app, you will get a fare estimate based on current conditions. This estimate can change depending on traffic or if the driver takes an alternate route.

To sum up, a Paddim ride cost in Nigeria is calculated based on distance, time, and whether there’s surge pricing. The final price might slightly differ from the initial estimate due to real-time conditions like traffic.
