Taxi app will use Apple's iBeacon and your iPhone to broadcast coupons to nearby users

A new version being released this Thursday will let you beam out your referral code for the service to others, all using Apple's iBeacon technology. These notifications won't pop up for everyone though, just other Taxi Magic users who have downloaded the app and have it open, but have never ordered up a ride. Taxi Magic is hoping the feature will reward existing users by getting them credit they can use on future rides, while encouraging new users to pull the trigger on their first.
