Didi Dache (Chinese: 滴滴打车; literally: "Didi Taxi Calling") is a mobile platform taxi-calling application developed by Chinese mobile application company Beijing Xiaoju Keji Co., Ltd.[1][2][3] The application is one of the major taxi apps in China, with over 100 million users in more than 300 cities. It was established in June 2012.[4]
In February 2015, Didi Dache and Kuaidi Dache announced they would merge to create one of the world’s largest smartphone-based transport service companies, worth around $6 billion.[5]It was not clear whether the merger may have violated China anti-monopoly law.[1]
In December 2015, taxi drivers protested against Didi Dache and Kuaidi Dache. Both companies were forced to close their offices in the city of Luoyang.[2]
