Online-based transportation is a type of transportation that uses a smartphone to store applications in the form of a server that can be used to order transportation equipment in the form of two-wheeled or four-wheeled vehicles. With this online transportation, consumers now no longer have to wait or have to go to wait at the motorcycle taxi stand or at the roadside to wait for a taxi or tell the address because Taxi online already has a coordinate point for a pick-up point for customers. It can even be picked up at home though. In addition, consumers do not need to haggle about fares, because they have been determined based on the distance traveled.
