Digital Environment and Connectivity in mn: real experience from chats

From real experience

how-toThe UBCab taxi app is used in Mongolia for ride-hailing, showing fare estimates.
Registration requires a Mongolian SIM card, but WhatsApp functionality is key. Payment is typically made in Mongolian Tugriks (MNT) cash directly to the driver. It's advisable to have smaller denominations as drivers may not have change. Exchanging currency for small purchases like water can help obtain smaller bills for taxi payments.
