Lyft

Get a ride or drive and earn on your schedule with Lyft

Visit Lyft

Lyft is an on-demand and scheduled ridesharing service for riders, with a driver earnings program and business ride solutions. It covers immediate trips, rides booked in advance, late-night travel, and morning commutes, and offers rewards on rides.

Ride tiers include Wait & Save, Priority Pickup, Extra Comfort, XL, Black, and Black SUV, with availability of bikes, scooters and other ride types varying by region. The Lyft Pink membership adds Priority Pickup upgrades, savings on Extra Comfort and Lyft XL, and cancellation forgiveness. Business solutions cover employee and client travel, while Lyft Up programs address ride accessibility. Safety tools and community guidelines are part of the service, and separate rider and driver apps are available.

Lyft serves individual riders, drivers who set their own schedule and keep their tips, and businesses arranging rides for staff. The pages describe a Lyft Pink membership with terms and conditions, and a driver application process, without stating pricing or plan structure.
