The agreement marks another step in DTC’s strategy to expand smart mobility services and deliver a more seamless ride-hailing experience across Dubai

Momentum continued into 2026, with e-hailing activity rising a further 9 per cent year-on-year in Q1, highlighting strong and sustained demand for digital mobility services

To support adoption, the service is launching with a 20 per cent discount on all scheduled rides within eligible school zones, enhancing accessibility for families

DTC holds close to half of the city’s taxi market share and has grown significantly since its founding in 1994

The partnership will see DTC’s 6,200 taxis and Kabi’s 3,680 taxis integrated into Bolt and Zed platforms, with future additions to both fleets automatically included.

The rollout coincides with a limited-time offer of 30 per cent cashback on the first three taxi rides booked through the Bolt app

Under the initiative, talabat pro members will receive 10 per cent off 10 Bolt rides each month, with a maximum discount of Dhs15 per ride
