Uber and Zomato tie up

The next time you use the Zomato app to search for an eatery, don't be surprised to see an Uber icon there. This is because the web-based Cab aggregator Uber has joined hands with Zomato - an online restaurant search and discovery service provider.

Zomato users can now see the estimated pickup time and fare to the eatery they wish to visit, from their current location. On tapping the Uber icon, the restaurant's address will be set as the user's destination, the coordinates of which will be shared with the cab driver upon pickup.

This feature is live in 27 cities across 13 countries and there are plans to add it to more cities in the future.
