MyBluebird

Bluebird's official app for licensed taxis, fixed or metered trips, airport transfers and selected rentals or shuttles.

Pro tip: Useful at airports and with luggage. Confirm whether the booking is fixed-price or metered and expect tolls, parking or platform fees separately.

Maxim

A lower-cost ride and delivery app with car and motorcycle service in many large and smaller Indonesian cities.

Pro tip: Check the driver, vehicle and complete price before boarding. Keep cash ready and do not agree to an unexplained amount outside the app.

inDrive

A ride app that lets passengers and drivers agree a fare, with service in dozens of Indonesian cities.

Pro tip: Compare offers, ratings and vehicle details instead of choosing only the lowest bid. Keep the booking and communication inside the app.

Maxim and inDrive are active lower-cost alternatives with broad but uneven driver supply. As reviewed in August 2026, Gojek officially lists GoRide in 76 cities, Maxim lists more than 300 Indonesian service areas, and inDrive advertises service in more than 50 Indonesian cities. Treat those as operator coverage claims, then confirm the actual vehicle types at the live pickup pin. Use MyBluebird when you prefer a registered taxi, need a meter or fixed-price choice, or find it easier at a major airport, station or hotel.

Cash works widely. Saved international cards can work in Gojek, Grab, MyBluebird and Maxim, but acceptance varies, so never make a flight depend on one card or one account. Airports and some Bali tourism zones use designated pickup areas, access fees or local restrictions. Follow signs and the in-app instructions, and reject requests to cancel and continue privately.

Verify the plate, driver and vehicle before boarding. Share the trip and keep valuables away from an open window. Choose a car for luggage, heavy rain, late travel or unfamiliar roads. Motorcycle rides are common but expose passengers to a much higher injury risk.

A traveler should not rent or drive a scooter without the correct licence, international permit, helmet, experience and insurance coverage. For remote beaches, volcano routes or an early departure, arrange the return with a reputable operator in advance.
