Abstract

A system and method for arranging a transport service is described. A system can receive a request for transport service from a user device. The request can include a requested pickup location data point. The system determines a predetermined location data point associated with the requested pickup location data point. The first predetermined location data point can be different from the requested pickup location data point. The system selects a driver to perform a transport service for the user based, at least in part, on the requested pickup location data point, and transmits the predetermined location data point to a driver device of the selected driver.
