Crewz - shared rides better than Uber/Lyft at the price of public transit!
Crewz is a new type of shared rides app that helps riders and drivers to easily save 50%+ of their time, money, and emissions, while meeting new friends and business contacts through curated carpools.
We do this through a unique combination of traditional carpooling and shared Uber/Lyft/taxi rides, and we're focused on partnering with event organizers.
Anyone with a car can sign up and offer a ride in seconds and make up to $20 or more by picking up a fellow attendee.
How it works for users
1. click on the specific Crewz carpool link for your event
2. sign up as a driver, and/or rider and/or Uber/Lyft/Taxi rideshare
3. see others going to the same events or with similar trips (first name, last initial, other info optional)
4. see others' LinkedIn (if connected), and see a fair price for sharing fuel/etc. calculated based on distance
5. message others, if necessary
6. choose who to invite/accept
7. share rides, save money, and make new friends!
