feel safe in the city

We believe that everyone should feel safe at all times during the day or night

York is a great city and we aim to keep it that way. The health and wellbeing of students is an important aspect and we aim to help in whichever way we can. Currently we are offering a 10% discount to all college and university students when booking on the app, the fare will automatically be reduced by 10% when the journey ends. This way you always get the discount and need not have to ask for it.

When getting a taxi around York, here are some things to keep in mind:

  • You can view the vehicle and driver details when using our app keeping you continuously updated.
  • All our vehicles are licensed by the City Of York Council and should have identifying plates on the rear and the front, they will be red. Our driver-partners will have a yellow plate on the rear.
  • Our vehicles will have the company name on the side of the vehicles. Our driver-partners should have the City of York crests.
  • To get the 10% discount, a photo of your student ID is required and only applies to app bookings. E-mail us at Students@alphacarsyork.co.uk
