Abstract
A mobile computing device can store a rider application for an on-demand transportation service. Based on the mobile computing device being in a mass egress area, the rider application can initiate a late-binding state to enable a direct pairing between the user and an available driver. In the late-binding state, the mobile computing device can receive a unique match code from a backend transport system that manages the on-demand transportation service, and display the unique match code on the display screen to facilitate the direct pairing.
