They don't have a "taxi license" as these are not taxis. But they need what is a "Personenbeförderungsschein" in German. So no worries. I use them frequently in Berlin and Frankfurt and I am more than happy with the cars, the drivers and so more the price. Freenow (which is owned by Daimler and BMW) Ride is the answer to Uber's illegal activities.

By the way: Google with translate MIETWAGEN as Rental Car, it is however what would be a limo in the US or a minicab in the UK. Mietwagen is the legal term for this in German.
