How does Cabify reservation work?

Choose your destination point. Then Select 'Reserve' in the lower right corner of the screen. Choose the date and time you want your Cabify to pick you up and click on 'Continue'. Select the category you want to reserve and then click on 'Confirm reservation' and that's it!



A Cabify reservation, known as "Cabify Programado," allows users to book a ride in advance for a specific time and date, ensuring a driver is assigned before the pickup window. In 2026, you can make a reservation between 2 hours and 30 days in advance through the mobile app or website. To start, you enter your pickup and drop-off locations, select the vehicle category (such as Lite, Executive, or Kids), and then tap the "Reserve" or clock icon instead of "Request Now." You will receive a confirmation message once the request is processed, and a specific driver is typically assigned about 30 to 60 minutes before the scheduled time. One major benefit of Cabify reservations is price transparency; the app provides a fixed "estimated price" that remains stable regardless of traffic or high demand at the time of the ride. However, be aware of the cancellation policy: if you cancel a reservation within a certain timeframe (usually less than two hours before the trip), a "cancellation fee" may apply to compensate the driver for their commitment to your time slot.
