What is MagicTaxi?

It's such a simple idea. Imagine a search engine powered by the biggest names on the internet. Easy-to-use, fast and effective, delivering results without fuss. MagicTaxi does all of that. And at the same time generates thousands of pounds of revenue for deserving causes – without costing a penny.

HALF of MagicTaxi's gross revenue gained from advertising goes to charity. MagicTaxi provides quick access to the web where you can search for general web results, images, video and much more. Magictaxi also offers dedicated shopping, research and travel searches.

How does it work?

A different one of our charitable partners appears on our homepage each day. For the 24 hour period that a charity is featured, whenever you search, the charity receives 50% of the gross revenue MagicTaxi receives from its advertising partners. So every day you search with MagicTaxi you can support a different charity.

You can also choose to download a MagicTaxi Internet Explorer toolbar. Once installed, the toolbar allows you to search from any web page and help charity. You get the same search options as if you were searching from the homepage – and it comes with a handy popup blocker too.
