Why Drive with DitchRide?

  • Higher Earnings per Trip

    Unlike traditional rideshare services, DitchRide offers intercity trips, which pay more than local rides. You can earn significantly more with just 1-2 trips per day than you would driving 20+ short local rides.

  • Flexible Hours

    You’re in control of your schedule. Choose the hours that work best for you, without being locked into daily quotas. Whether you want to work part-time or full-time, DitchRide provides the flexibility to fit your lifestyle.

  • Fewer Rides, Bigger Fares

    With fewer passengers and longer trips, you'll make higher fares per ride. No more dealing with constant short trips or low-paying rides. Complete just 1-2 trips a day and make what you would do in multiple city rides.

  • Low Competition, High Demand

    Intercity travel is often underserved. This means there’s high demand for DitchRide drivers. You won’t be competing for every fare—your trips are already booked in advance, ensuring a steady stream of riders.

  • Founding Driver Perks

    Be part of our Founding Driver Program and get lifetime priority access to trips and exclusive bonus incentives for early drivers. Your loyalty is rewarded, and you’ll be the first to enjoy new features and service updates.

  • Less Wear & Tear on Your Vehicle

    Fewer stops, fewer passengers, and longer trips mean less wear and tear on your vehicle. Save money on maintenance and enjoy a better overall experience compared to constantly driving around in city traffic.
