BeamX is a Transportation Network Service (also called ride-hailing / ridesharing) where customers book and pay for transportation through a mobile app. Riders must choose a payment method: cash or debit/credit card, before they can use the service. The customer requests a ride and confirms their pickup location. A nearby driver accepts the ride, and the rider then sees the driver’s name and vehicle details. After the ride, both parties can leave a rating.
Started in early 2020, the BeamX team set out to create a revolutionary ridehailing application for St. Vincent and the Grenadines that could benefit the struggling economy and lackluster transportation system.
