Split Fare
When riding with friends or groups, you can always split the cost. There’s no need to swap cash—just tell the app to calculate it for you and send you the bill.
Why it's helpful
Ride with friends
The more the merrier. Pick up your buddies and get everyone to chip in.
Skip the cash
Divide the cost of the ride directly through the app. It’s easy and stress-free.
