help GoCatch FAQ
Where was GoCatch founded?
GoCatch was founded in Sydney, Australia, in 2011. It began as a taxi-booking service and later added ridesharing after regulatory changes in New South Wales.
Is GoCatch an alternative to Uber?
Yes. GoCatch provides taxi and rideshare booking and competed with Uber in Australia. Its original focus was connecting passengers with licensed taxi drivers through a mobile app.
Did GoCatch operate in New Zealand?
GoCatch is primarily associated with the Australian taxi and rideshare market, especially Sydney and other Australian cities. Claims about broad New Zealand availability should be checked against the service's current coverage because its transport operations changed over time.
What happened to GoCatch's ridesharing service?
GoCatch introduced ridesharing in early 2016 after New South Wales legalized that category. The company later departed the transport industry in 2021, so historical descriptions of GoCatch do not necessarily describe a current booking service.
