You can now Snapper your taxi fare in thousands of taxis across New Zealand.
It's easy to Snapper your taxi ride. When your ride is finished and it's time to pay, just tell the driver that you want to pay by Snapper.
The driver will enter the fare amount into their Eftpos terminal, and then they can hand the Eftpos terminal to you. Hold your Snapper on the screen of the Eftpos terminal and in an instant your taxi fare has been paid.
Top tip: Don't wave or "swipe" your Snapper. The Snapper reader inside the Eftpos terminal needs time to be able to "talk" to your Snapper in order to work. Hold your Snapper to the reader and keep it still. The Snapper process takes less than a second, so you won't be there long!

Note - the taxi operator's fee for electronic transactions may apply.
