Payment Experts Payrails Team With Ride Hailing App inDrive
The partnership solves the complexities of integrating various regional payment service providers into the global mobility service.
Payment platform Payrails has announced a strategic collaboration with inDrive, the world’s second-most-downloaded ride-hailing app. The partnership is already helping the California-based inDrive overcome the complexities of integrating various payment service providers and alternative payment methods across different regions, including MENA.
Payrails’ solution is provider agnostic, and features dynamic payment routing, and extended coverage of alternative (regional) payment methods. The technology is complex, but the main takeaway is that inDrive has already seen an 11% increase in card approval rates and significantly boosted conversions, enhancing profits for inDrive and improving income security for its workers.
Payrails also delivers a streamlined experience for inDrive’s developers by offering a single API (application programming interface) eliminating the need for multiple individual integrations with different regional payment providers and payment methods.
Vasiliy Everstov, Head of Fintech at inDrive, expressed enthusiasm about the results, stating: “Partnering with Payrails empowers us to activate all of our key payment objectives for the business across our top priority markets. Together, we are driving tech innovation in the mobility industry and unlocking new opportunities for drivers and consumers alike”.

Cyberdrone, a leading UAV display company based in Dubai, put on a breathtaking drone light show on Monday to honor two significant football milestones: AC Milan’s 125th anniversary and the one-year anniversary of Casa Milan Dubai.
The spectacle involved 1,000 drones working in perfect harmony to project AC Milan’s iconic imagery against the city’s night sky. Highlights included the UAVs synchronizing to form the club’s iconic crest, the signature red and black jersey, and a special emblem marking its 125th year.
