FREENOW Celebrates International Women's Day with Exclusive Bonus for Female Taxi Drivers
London, 6th March 2025 — FREENOW, London’s no. 1 Taxi App, is announcing today the launch of an exclusive bonus for female taxi drivers in celebration of International Women's Day. This initiative aims to encourage more female drivers to join the FREENOW platform, ensuring a diverse and inclusive service for all passengers.
Any female drivers in London who complete their registration with FREENOW by March 31st will receive a bonus of £500* and can take advantage of the existing 0% commission for their first six weeks.
This special offer is part of FREENOW's ongoing efforts to empower female drivers and provide them with a rewarding and flexible earning opportunity. In addition, FREENOW offers other unique benefits to its partner taxi drivers, such as access to accident and sickness insurance as well as parental and compassionate leave. Taxi drivers on the FREENOW app can also take advantage of discounts on EV charging and more through partnerships with OVO and bp pulse.
Nour Rasamny, Head of Operations at FREENOW UK, said: "We are thrilled to celebrate International Women's Day by offering this exclusive bonus to female taxi drivers. We believe in fostering a diverse and inclusive community of drivers, and this initiative is a testament to our commitment to supporting women in the industry.
“However, with black cab vehicle numbers at a 40 year low and the number of female cab drivers also declining - only 1.5% of all black cab drivers in London are women - we call for urgent action from TfL and the Mayor of London to actively encourage more people to become black cab drivers to ensure Londoners and visitors can continue to enjoy the unique service they provide.”
