Uber and taxis in Nottingham

Nottingham splits its cabs in two. A Hackney Carriage can be flagged in the street or picked up at a rank and runs on a council-set meter. A private hire car has to be booked through an operator first, and the council's own advice is never to get into one you did not book. To pay a street-hailed cab by card, the FreeNow app can settle the fare without a booking, though it does not list East Midlands Airport among the airports it serves. Bolt takes Mastercard and Visa, not American Express. Tickets, passes and contactless are on the Nottingham page.
