About this app

This Ride Sharing Platform has the following unique features:

Auction system - Prices are set by the drivers via a live auction system. The Passenger enters the destination address, whilst Drivers in the vicinity, based on a chosen notification radius, bid for that trip. Drivers can see each others details and amend their bids until the Passenger has selected and confirmed a ride. The Passenger chooses a driver from a list of bidders, after having evaluated price, time of arrival, the type of car, trip reviews as well as security features such as documents and a Verified stamp.

Verification stamp- This is a security and background checking process which Drivers may voluntarily undergo and for which they will receive a Verification stamp of approval which is prominently displayed on their profile.

Journey sharing - This function allows the Passenger to stream live feedback of their current journey to a person of choice (who must be a registered user of this platform), by sharing the journey map, so others always know where the Passenger currently is. This is a nice function for parents who want to know where their siblings are.

Complaint system - This function allows a Passenger to raise a complaint within one hour after completion of a trip. We will investigate the complaint and will reimburse the fare where warranted at our discretion.

Trip review - Passengers can give reviews on the Driver similar to product evaluation reviews that we know from other platforms. Likewise the Driver can give a review of Passengers. Both Passengers and Drivers can see their review details in a transparent way.

Chat system - Passengers can chat with the Driver before or after selection of a ride, should they have any questions or want clarification such as a pick up location.

Help system - Passengers can raise any questions and we will answer them to the best of our ability as fast as possible.

Secure payment system - We have embedded the internationally accepted PayPal payment gateway onto our platform. For both Passengers and Drivers it is easy to register on PayPal, which is not only secure, but also offers consumer protection. You will never share any financial information with us.

A fair remuneration system for the drivers - We pay the driver within four hours of the trip, via PayPal and assuming that no complaints which need in-depth investigation have been raised. Drivers may then transfer these funds (in USD) to any destination of their choice.

International presence - This platform is available for any driver in any country. Fares are charged in USD via the PayPal platform. Drivers must ensure that they are a registered user with PayPal. Any refunds to Passengers will also be processed via PayPal.
