Uber Thailand has soft-launched its official account on Line, Thailand’s most widely used messaging app, allowing people to seamlessly request Uber rides in Bangkok and Chiang Mai directly via the app.

Leon Foong, general manager of Uber Thailand, said that Line had 33 million users.
He said that Line messaging had become a part of many people’s daily routine, and Uber was increasingly becoming integrated into their lives.
In Bangkok, Uber’s services include uberX – an affordable and reliable ride at an everyday price – and UberBLACK, a premier ride in style for those special occasions.
In Chiang Mai, uberX services are also available. 
All Uber Thailand official account followers will receive a Bt55 promotional code for one ride throughout December.
