sRide is a trusted social carpooling app that helps people to carpool by connecting people like you going your way. It uses a real-time matching process to help match people going in the same direction. Some of these users will be car owners (can give ride to other people to share cost) and some of these user will need ride.

The safety of our members is our top priority, and we have made our application very secure to ensure that aspect of carpooling. All our users are verified for their identity through phone and work email. User review is mandatory at the end of each ride so each user gets more and more review comments as they complete their rides. The review ratings received by past co-riders help other people to select these users based on the average review ratings they have got.
A user who hasn’t verified his company name wont have any company name added to his profile. It is still possible that you know the user personally and may choose to ride with them based on his good review ratings. We suggest you verify the user (who doesn’t have a company name) properly before you ride with them.
We use our algorithm to find you matches. The more users there are the higher the chances of getting a match. So make sure you tell your friends about this application, and get them to signup! We also have a “referral” promotion scheme.
