What is a shared cab, and how is it different from a regular cab booking?

A shared cab is a ride where you book and pay for a single seat instead of the whole vehicle. Mansi Cab matches you with other verified passengers travelling the same route around the same time, so the fare is split and your cost comes down significantly compared to a private, full-vehicle booking.

How much can I save by booking a shared cab instead of a private cab?

Since you're only paying for your seat and not the entire vehicle, shared cab fares are typically a fraction of what a private cab on the same route would cost. The exact saving depends on the route, vehicle type, and number of co-passengers sharing the ride.

Who are the other passengers I'll be travelling with?

Every co-passenger on a Mansi Cab shared ride is a registered, identity-verified user of the platform. You can see basic ride details before confirming your seat, and your driver is background-verified regardless of whether the booking is private or shared.

Can I choose my pickup and drop points for a shared cab?

Shared cabs run on designated pickup and drop points along the route to keep detours minimal for every passenger on board. You'll be shown the nearest available pickup point to your location when you book, and your driver will meet you there at the scheduled time.

What vehicle types are available for shared cab bookings?

Mansi Cab offers shared seats in Sedans (up to 3 seats), SUVs (up to 5 seats), and Tempo Travellers for larger groups such as pilgrimage parties or office teams. The available vehicle depends on the route and demand at the time of booking.

Is a shared cab available for daily office commutes?

Yes. Mansi Cab's local shared cab option is built for regular commuters travelling the same office corridor every day. You can set up a fixed daily or monthly arrangement with a consistent driver and route instead of booking a fresh ride each time.

Can I book a shared cab for intercity or outstation travel?

Yes, shared cabs are available on popular intercity routes such as Mumbai-Pune, Pune-Nashik, and Delhi-Jaipur, among others. If your specific route isn't listed, you can still enter your pickup and drop location in the app and Mansi Cab will notify you when a match becomes available.

What happens if no other passengers are matched for my route?

If a shared match isn't available for your selected time and route, the app will let you know your options, you can wait for a match closer to your departure time or switch to a private booking for the same route.

How do I know my shared cab ride is safe?

Every Mansi Cab driver, whether on a private or shared booking, undergoes police background verification and licence validation. Co-passengers are identity-verified before a seat is confirmed, and your entire ride is tracked live with GPS, which you can share with a trusted contact at any time.

How do I pay for a shared cab ride?

Payment is collected after your leg of the journey is complete, based on your seat's share of the fare. You can pay via Cash, UPI, Debit or Credit Card, Net Banking, or Digital Wallet, nothing is charged upfront.
