How It Works
Whether you're looking for a ride or offering one, FULLRIDE makes it effortless.
For Riders
Enter your departure city, destination, and travel date. FULLRIDE instantly shows available rides from verified student drivers heading your way.
Compare rides by price, departure time, driver rating, and amenities. Check the driver's profile, reviews, and vehicle details before choosing.
Some rides offer Instant Book — your seat is confirmed immediately. Others require a booking request that the driver approves. Either way, payment is secure through Stripe.
Your payment is charged at booking and held securely until the ride is complete. No cash exchanges, no awkward Venmo requests. Just seamless, protected payments.
Meet your driver at the pickup point, enjoy the ride, and rate your experience afterward. Your ratings help the community stay safe and trustworthy.
For Drivers
Already driving somewhere? Post your route, departure time, and available seats. Add stops along the way to pick up more riders.
Set your per-seat price (capped at the IRS mileage rate for cost-sharing). Choose instant book or manual approval. Offer women-only rides for added safety.
Review booking requests and accept riders you're comfortable with. Or enable Instant Book to automatically confirm riders — your choice.
Pick up your riders and hit the road. Once the ride is completed, your earnings are released to your Stripe Connect account — deposited directly to your bank.
After every ride, riders rate and review you. Great ratings mean more bookings and a stronger profile in the FULLRIDE community.
Pricing
No hidden fees. No surge pricing. Here's exactly how pricing works.
Drivers set their price per seat. Prices are capped at the IRS mileage rate to ensure this remains cost-sharing, not commercial driving. Most rides cost $10-40 — a fraction of what rideshare apps charge.
FULLRIDE adds a service fee to riders. This small fee (minimum $1.50) covers secure payment processing, platform maintenance, and 24/7 support. The fee is always shown at checkout before you pay.
Drivers receive 100% of the seat price. The service fee is charged on top — drivers aren't docked anything.
Compare: Uber/Lyft would charge $120-180 for the same trip.
