Taxi Payant began airing on September 3, 2009 on V, and is hosted by Alexandre Barrette. It airs in Québec instead of the American version of the series, which is seen on the U.S. Discovery Channel cable network and on local U.S. stations in syndication. Taxi Payant is the French version of the Cash Cab franchise available in Canada. There is an English Canadian version as well, also called Cash Cab, which airs on the Canadian Discovery Channel.

Gameplay
The rules of the game are identical to its English Canadian counterpart; however, the questions in Cash Cab tend to be more scientific-related while Taxi Payant's questions can be about virtually any topic, from geography to sports to pop culture to even general trivia about the city of Montréal, Québec, where the show is filmed in. On numerous episodes, Barrette is even seen outside the cab, asking general knowledge questions to strangers on the street for an easy $10.
