Poparide helps you fill empty seats in your vehicle on mid to long-distance trips to increase vehicle occupancy and share costs with passengers.
Posting a trip takes only a couple of minutes and lets you collect a payment from passengers going the same way.
Pro tip: Post your trip at least 3 days in advance so passengers have enough time to book.
Trip details
Make sure you enter accurate details about your trip, including precise pickup and drop-off locations for passengers. Use the trip description field to provide any additional details on your trip and ensure you have enough space in your car for everyone to sit comfortably.
Stops
Stops allow you to pick up and drop-off passengers along the way to increase your chances of filling your seats and covering your costs. You can create up to 5 stops on a trip and allow passengers to place a booking request for any segment of your trip.
Recurring trips
If you're driving regularly, you can create recurring trips and post up to 100 trips in a 6 month period. This feature is popular with commuters who are looking for a carpool option to travel to work.
Pricing
We cap prices at 17 cents per kilometre to ensure fair pricing for passengers (read more). Before posting your trip, take a look at the trip list for your destination to compare pricing with other rides.
Posting a fair price per seat will help increase bookings on your trip and fill your seats faster.
Profile photo
Drivers with a clear profile photo fill their seats a lot faster. We highly recommend uploading a clear picture of your face to show passengers you’re a nice, reliable person to travel with.
Space
Passengers appreciate having enough space in your vehicle. Make sure you post seats that are wide enough for adults to sit comfortably. Squeezing three people into the back seat is not recommended.
