Zomato (the global restaurant search and discovery service) and Uber (the smartphone app that connects riders with drivers for on-demand transportation) have announced a partnership that will help both services bring more to their users across the globe. This partnership has been rolled out to Zomato users in the UK (London) and South Africa (Cape Town, Johannesburg and Durban – soon to be rolled out to customers in other markets).
How it works: Zomato will bring the seamless Uber experience to the Zomato app to enable users to book cabs to the restaurant where they are planning to eat. Uber will also bring Zomato content closer to its users over the next few months, to showcase nearby restaurants when passengers arrive at their destination.
Zomato’s partnership with Uber makes getting to restaurants – in style – incredibly easy. Once a user has found a place to dine at or have drinks at using the Zomato app, a single tap on the Uber button on the restaurant page will allow one to find the nearest Uber. In addition to seeing the estimated fare and how long it will take for the Uber to arrive, one will also be able to choose the Uber service that best suits one’s need.
