15% commission. Three ways to pay nothing.

On a standard ride our 15% is all-in — card processing included. On a fee-free ride LocalsRide takes nothing; only the card network's ~$6.10 applies.

From request to payout, four steps.

No dispatcher, no auction you can't see. The full trip is in front of you before you commit.

  1. 01

    A rider posts a route

    Pickup, drop-off, time, and vehicle class — usually a day or more ahead. You see the full trip first.

  2. 02

    You set your price

    Riders compare offers side by side. It's your fare and your terms — service and ratings matter, not just the lowest bid.

  3. 03

    You drive

    Once the rider accepts, route and fare lock in. You know exactly what you'll earn before you turn the key.

  4. 04

    Stripe Connect pays you

    The fare lands in your own Stripe account and out to your bank within 4 business days. We never hold your money.

Payouts · Stripe Connect

The cash the rider pays goes to your bank.

No preset tariffs — you set every fare. The money sits in your own Stripe Connect account, then pays out automatically.

Chauffeur work, not ride-hail volume.

Fewer, bigger, pre-booked jobs — the work professional drivers actually want.

Fewer jobs, bigger fares

2–3 rides a shift at ~$200 — not ten $9 trips and a tank of gas.

Airport & intercity

40+ mile routes for travelers and corporate clients, booked ahead.

Booked 24h ahead

Fare fixed before you arrive. No surge roulette, no dead circling.
