Cabify is a popular option.

Cabify, Beat, Didi...

Taxi BA. Official app of the city. You can pay by card in the taxis if you select that or otherwise just pay cash. Usually better availability and shorter wait times than Cabify etc.

I would say Didi is the best option ATM. Right now Didi offers the shortest wait times and usually the lowest prices, this is due to the fact that they take a lower cut of the fare in comparison to Cabify/Uber/Beat. What I've found with Taxi Ba is that getting a car usually takes upwards of 10 minutes, just my experience though.

thank U, great))
i didnt know about Didi. Will try and tell U. ))

the first note: Cabify charged me +15% if i pay with debit card in comparison with cash)))

second note: UBER taxi waits just 3 minutes. After this time taxi has gone and charged me for 300 ARS for 1 km of fake drive i haven't driven

Hi all, I wanted to revive this thread to ask for any updates on cab apps— which is the best these days? (Outside of Uber) I usually just flag a taxi down on the street, but have to go to an event that lets out quite late on a weekday night in a part of town where I'm not sure cabs are frequenting. (Costanera Center Salguero). I've never used many apps on my cell but thought that might be a bit better as there are also no busses in the area that I noticed when plugging in the location to como llego. I'd have to traverse the highway underpass and as a woman...I'm not comfortable. So, I'd love to hear everyone's more recent experiences with the taxi apps (Didi, the BA Taxi App)? Thank you so much for your updated input!

Didi is the best. In the daytime it can be a bit faster to hail a city taxi from the street. However at night there is an additional surcharge for city taxis and you're better off just waiting for the Didi to show up.

Do you know if you're able to sign up for Didi without inputting a debit/credit card and can just pay the driver in cash?
