Policies that protect you

Online payments and reviews make Poparide the most reliable way to rideshare.

All payments are made online

Passengers pay online, in advance, to make sure they are committed to taking the ride. Drivers get paid after the ride is completed and all members are protected by our cancellation policies.

Review each ride

After a trip has completed, drivers and passengers are asked to review their experience with each other. This builds accountability, helps deal with issues and process any necessary refunds.

Good for community,
and good for the planet

Ridesharing connects you with people in your community. Our members have found housing, jobs and made new friends on Poparide!

By sharing rides, you also contribute to increasing vehicle occupancy, which offsets your carbon footprint.

At Poparide, we're committed to make travel more social, affordable and sustainable for everyone.
