I would imagine quite a services to just deal with legislation/taxation stuff in all the different markets they operate in. These can also result on several integrations to government systems - all country specific. In some markets they are partnering with taxi companies - maybe more integrations for ordering and reporting.
In general it is easy to underestimate the complexity of systems you are not familiar with. The devil is in the details and deeper you look, more complicated it usually gets.

A key-value store is theoretically easy, “just store data and give it back”, but a distributed / highly reliable key value store is a crazy beast. Collision detection and response seems like a “solved” problem but perk at the code and you’ll find just how many lines of code a basic game spends preventing players from waking through walls.
