The taxi-hailing app announced two new features-Uber Ride Request Widget and trip branding and personalization app. The ride request widget brings the entire Uber experience, from ride configuration and request all the way to drop-off, inside any partner app. It also allows users to request a ride or set a ride reminder through a partner app or site.

The trip branding and personalization helps users with helpful content during their ride, right from the Uber app itself.

Goibibo

The online travel aggregator, Goibibo.com, launched ‘Go-Time guarantee’ for refunds. Goibibo.com claims refund to be processed within two hours from the time the customer cancels his or her travel with the portal.

The new feature transparently shares the exact time in minutes and seconds, taken to process the refund. In case of a failure to meet the 2 hour guarantee, the platform promises to credit Rs.100/- in the customer’s GoCash wallet for every hour of delay.
