Taxi service Gett launches express delivery in Moscow. Shahar Vaiser's service is going to compete for delivery from online stores with traditional courier services

The service for ordering a taxi through the Gett app launches a courier delivery service in Moscow “Gett Courier”. Now, using the Gett application, users in Moscow will be able to order not just a taxi, but a courier who can deliver a small parcel to the desired address within the Moscow Ring Road, company representative Alena Balakireva told RBC.
“We noticed that our clients often use taxis not for classic trips, but to send gifts, documents, educational materials, forgotten keys and other items,” says Balakireva. But a taxi ride, especially taking into account Moscow traffic jams, turns out to be more expensive than courier delivery. Therefore, for the new service, Gett is canceling per-minute billing and introducing a single tariff: 400 rubles. within the Third Transport Ring and 600 rubles. within the Moscow Ring Road.
Small businesses, according to Balakireva, also regularly use the taxi service as a courier delivery, mainly for sending documents. The service will also be actively used by small flower shops, bookstores, confectionery shops and gift shops, she hopes.
The new service may also appeal to online stores. CEO Gett in Russia Vitaly Krylov believes that with the help of the new service, customers in Moscow will be able to receive their orders within an hour. He did not disclose which specific stores the taxi service is already negotiating cooperation with.
Competitors doubt Gett will be able to seriously compete in the express delivery market for online retailers. “They won’t be able to work with small businesses and online stores, because then 95% of their taxi cars will be filled with boxes with orders,” notes PR director of the Bringo courier service Philipp Egorov (Bringo is a platform that aggregates courier orders, the executors of which can anyone registered on it will become a “bringer”). Such delivery is more likely aimed at individuals, which makes Gett’s service more like a concierge service, he believes. I had experience working with private couriers with their own cars. logistics company DPD, says Egorov, however, was soon abandoned: as soon as the car gets stuck in a traffic jam, it is a disaster for express delivery, which assumes that the customer will receive his goods in one and a half to two hours. After DPD switched to cooperation with Bringo, launching the DPD Now express delivery service, the speed of delivery in Moscow increased significantly (almost a day), the quality of service, and the cost of delivery decreased (due to the abandonment of couriers in cars), notes Egorov .
The Moscow express delivery market includes more than 20 thousand items daily; Large players such as DPD or Pony Express account for 5-6 thousand items each, so the market remains extremely attractive, admits Egorov.
The founder of the courier service “pedestrian” couriers “Peshkariki” Dmitry Petrov believes that Gett will not be able to become a very popular service among online stores, since one of the most popular categories of express delivery is clothing: it is important for users to be able to try on things and return some of them together with the courier to the store, he explains. Gett will not have such an option: the driver will not go up to the floor with the parcel, nor will he wait for the goods to be sent back; the user of the application will have to go out to the car themselves when the taxi arrives. In addition, taxis often turn out to be a more expensive courier than walking deliveries. “We also tried to cooperate with taxi drivers, but they demand 500-600 rubles for delivery of one parcel, while our service costs 330 rubles,” says Petrov.
Not all taxi drivers will deliver user packages to Gett, but only those who have completed a special training course: it concerns both safety and service aspects, says Balakireva. “Because users often send quite valuable items, such as documents, we need to trust those making the deliveries 100%, so they will most likely be long-time drivers at Gett,” she notes. The driver will be responsible for the safety of the cargo, Gett says, for this reason especially valuable cargo, for example large but fragile household appliances, most likely, will not be accepted for transportation, she points out. Gett is also considering introducing a minimum insurance for cargo, but the amount has not yet been determined. In addition, the user will have to agree to the rules for the provision of courier services (most likely, this will happen when placing an order online) and undertake, for example, not to transfer any illegal parcels with the courier.
According to Petrov, the sender signing an agreement on the provision of courier services is standard practice. Theoretically, sending illegal goods along with services is possible, he argues, but the courier has the right to demand to see the contents of the parcel or even refuse to fulfill the order if he doubts that the contents correspond to the description. Such cases were few, but they did occur, says Petrov.
Gett's delivery service launched in Tel Aviv at the end of last year, and has been operating in London since the beginning of February. Representatives of the service do not disclose the volume of orders in these cities, but note that their number is “growing every day.”
This is not Gett’s first experience in the field of logistics services: in July 2015, Gett announced the start of delivery Japanese food in Moscow, one of its first partners in the project was the Wabi-Sabi cafe chain. In November, Gett launched the Gett iMaster emergency iPhone repair service. Founded by an Israeli from Russia, Shahar Weisser, the Gett service currently operates in 58 cities around the world, including New York, London, Moscow, St. Petersburg, Sochi, etc. According to the company itself, the Gett service is used by more than 10 million people . Accurate information about your financial results Gett does not disclose. Weisser himself predicted that by the end of 2015, the company’s revenue should reach $0.5 billion.
The American service Uber can be considered a pioneer in the field of delivery of goods and services using a taxi application, which launched the delivery of dishes from UberEATS restaurants and courier delivery UberRUSH in several cities in the USA, Canada and Paris. Despite the fact that the service is already present in Russia in 11 cities, Uber presents the delivery of goods and groceries on the Russian market only as one-time promotions, for example, it offers the delivery of flowers or breakfasts on March 8.
