    Abstract: A method and system for selectively allowing service providers (e.g., taxi drivers) to engage in premium arrangements with customers is presented. The method entails assigning an initial number of points to each of the service providers; adjusting, by using a computing device, the number of points assigned to the providers based on provider behavior, wherein the provider behavior take into account frequency of acceptance of customer requests for service, types of services accepted, and accurate execution of requested service; categorizing providers with points above a predefined threshold as premium providers who are allowed to engage in premium arrangements with customers; and transmitting the premium status of premium providers to the customers. With the method and system, only providers that demonstrated good behavior that is consistent with fair and efficient access to the services is allowed to engage in premium arrangements.
