Welcome to Rideshares Worldwide, an all inclusive list of rideshare companies! From Uber to Lyft, Ola to DIDI, there are a number of rideshares in every city around the world and here at RideGuru we try to track them all. This is RideGuru's master rideshare list, where you can find information on rideshare companies currently in operation or from the past. Take a look, here are the ones we track.
Uber is the largest (and most well known) on-demand car service in the world. The Uber app allows users to request a ride via their Android or iPhone. Once a driver is signaled through the app, it usually takes less than 10 minutes for a car to arrive at your door. During this brief wait period, Uber allows you to track the car's location so you know exactly when to expect its arrival. The app provides a cashless payment process by charging all Uber rides to an on file credit card attached to your account. One thing to note though, sometimes Uber enacts surge pricing during peak travel times, meaning your fare could double, triple, or even cost you up to 7X the normal amount! On the plus side, with Uber's upfront fares you will see the cost of your ride before you go. Uber has many services from standard rides to rides for large groups to premium rides in luxury cars. They also offer unique services like Uber Eats where they will deliver food to your door within the hour. Uber is currently available in 72 countries and thousands of cities.

Lyft is an on-demand, peer to peer, ridesharing service that connects passengers who need a ride with available drivers in the community. Lyft's tagline is "your friend with a car" as the drivers use their own personal cars for picking up passengers.
Lyft cars are available to be hailed through the Lyft smartphone app. Once a Lyft driver is requested through the Lyft app, the rider will be able to track their driver through the app and will receive a notification when their ride has arrived! The app provides a cash less payment process by charging all Lyft rides to an on file credit card attached to your account. One thing to note though, sometimes Lyft enacts prime time surge pricing during peak travel times, meaning your fare price could double or even triple the normal amount! If prime time pricing is in effect, Lyft will always notify you before you request.
Lyft has multiple services from their standard Lyft car, Lyft Line for carpools, Lyft Plus for large groups, Lyft premier for premium service, and more.
As of December 2017, Lyft launched in Toronto Canada, its first international expansion.
Available in Canada, United States, and United States Minor Outlying Islands.

OlaCabs, or more commonly referred to as Ola, is an online, on-demand car service based in Bangalore, India. Ola provides riders with a variety of car services, ranging from their ultra-affordable Ola Micro service to their luxury business class options, Ola Prime and Ola Lux.
Ola cabs are requested and booked through the Ola smartphone application via the touch of a button. Once a customer books their Ola car, they will have the option to pay via cash, credit card, or with Ola money. Ola money is a cashless form of payment within the app, which allows a customer to buy Ola credit (via their credit or debit card) to use towards Ola rides.
Ola cab prices are very reasonable but occasionally when Ola cabs are in high demand the company may enact peak time surcharge pricing. Peak time pricing could double or even triple your fare depending on the surge amount. Luckily, Ola will always warn you if peak time pricing is in effect before you decide to book one of their cars.
One neat feature of Ola is that some of their services provide free WiFi during your ride! They also have an emergency alert button within the app if you find yourself in an unsafe environment. Ola is currently available across India and in select cities in Australia.

Curb, formerly Taxi Magic, is an on-demand car service that hails an existing traditional taxi through the Curb smartphone app. Unlike rideshare companies, such as Uber and Lyft, which hail a peer-driven car, the Curb app will hail a traditional licensed taxi or professional for hire car. With Curb, you can either request your car when you need one through the app or you can hail a taxi off the street. If you choose to hail one off the street, simply turn on your Curb app once you are inside the taxi and pay for your ride through the Curb platform. Curb's local partners (taxi companies and private for hire cars) set the fares, so prices will vary depending on location. Curb does add a $2 fee to each ride for using their app. The app allows you to either pay via credit card or cash.
One differentiating factor with the CURB app is that it is also tailored for taxi dispatchers. With CURB, dispatchers will be supplied with significant data regarding where their fleet is and how many fares their cars have picked up.
Available in United States.

Juno, is a ridehailing service owned by Gett and based in New York, New York. They claim to be the most friendly ridehail service for both drivers and riders, hence their slogan, "A Better Ridesharing Service". Juno does try to live by this motto as they have reserved 50% of the shares of their company to be given out to their drivers, a first in the ridesharing world! Juno also takes a smaller commission (10%) from their drivers than similar services, putting more money in drivers' pockets. Lastly, Juno has a 24-hour assistance hotline, which is a big plus for both riders and drivers! While this company at a basic level is similar to an Uber (download the app, hail a ride, rate your driver, etc), their advantage is in the way they treat their drivers and riders.
One thing to note is that Juno does have high demand pricing or surge pricing, where Juno's prices will rise when there is a short supply of drivers on the road to encourage more drivers to drive and to lessen wait times. This is similar to Uber's surge pricing or Lyft's prime time pricing. One aspect of Juno's surge pricing that is a bit unique, however, is that they will cap their surge pricing so you will only be charged the surge price for a portion of your trip (if you are taking a longer ride). The surge caps for each service are as follows, $30 for Bliss, $50 for Lux, and $80 for SUV. Simply put for Bliss rides, once the base fare reaches $30, the surge price stops and the regular Juno Bliss pricing kicks back into effect. Juno employs this method to ensure that riders are not paying extreme surge prices for long rides.
*Update: On 11/18/2019 Juno officially closed it's doors and stopped it's service.

To find a seat on a Bridj bus you will need to open your Bridj app and drop the two location pins (starting and ending locations for your trip). Bridj will then match your trip route with a Bridj bus that best meets your needs. This may require that you walk a block or two to your tailored Bridj pick up location where you will meet other passengers who will be sharing your shuttle bus. Bridj prices range from $2 to $6 per ride. You can book your Bridj either right when you need it or days in advance.

Pogo is an app that allows parents to organize rides for their kids through shared connections. The Pogo app is not a ridesharing app for your kids but a way to find other parents who are driving the same routes as you, allowing you to connect and create carpools for your children. Once you have created shared rides for your children you can track your childs ride in real time to ensure that they arrived at their destination safely. Pogo helps to connect you to other parents in your community that you may either know directly or through a mutual friend, so you are never placing your child with a complete stranger. Pogo also allows parents to review drivers so you can scan through each drivers reviews before selecting a ride for your child. There is no charge to use Pogo as the app simply acts as a platform to connect with other parents to plan rides. Pogo is available on iOS and Android devices.

With TaxiBeat you choose your driver based on your needs. You can choose the nearest vehicle if you are in a hurry, the nicest car if you are trying to impress, or even the language spoken by the driver if you are looking to connect. Each driver creates their own profile and sets their own prices allowing you to choose the best option for you. After your ride you are prompted to rate your driver and vehicle so future customers know exactly what to expect. We have noticed and received complaints that TaxiBeat's website does not appear to be working and that they also have very few drivers, making ordering a ride difficult at times. Originally founded in Athens, TaxiBeat is now available in NYC, Rio De Janiero, Sao Paulo, Paris, and Mexico City.
