The intermediary is Great Call. It is Great Call that will summon either an 
Uber or lyft car based on price and availability. There is an additional 
service charge over and above the actual fare for the ride.
Both Uber and lyft offer various options depending on the city that you are 
in.  I do not know if the Go Go service allows you to choose the kind of 
ride that you want.  For example, both lyft and Uber offer a shared ride 
service that is cheaper than the standard ride.  Also, I don't know how 
tipping is handled, as with lyft you tip through the app rather than with 
cash.
