Tada launches ride-hailing service in Hong Kong with lower fares than Uber

Tada has launched its ride-hailing service in Hong Kong, offering potentially lower fares than Uber but with longer wait times. Both services operate illegally, as drivers lack the necessary hire-car permits. During a test ride, a Tada driver admitted to not having a permit, similar to Uber's situation. Tada claims to follow "market practices" and emphasizes the need for diverse commuting options. The service allows cash and credit card payments and features a zero-commission model for drivers. However, it charges a fixed fee of HK$3 for rides over HK$60 and for driver withdrawals.
