# Snapp!

> Snapp! began in Tehran in 2014 as Taxi Yaab, a ride-hailing service that quoted the fare before pickup and removed the familiar taxi ritual of bargaining. It has since become a privately held Iranian super app spanning rides, food and grocery delivery, parcel logistics, travel, healthcare, shopping, loyalty and payments. The company says its 20 services reach more than 60 million users in 287 cities and its ride network has handled more than four million trips in a day, giving Snapp a high-frequency gateway into Iran’s consumer internet economy.
