The Guru Take
Lyft does not accept cash. Some Uber services in limited regions do.
No, you cannot catch a Lyft and pay for it using cash. Uber offers some services including UberTaxis that leverage local taxis and, in some regions, offer an ability to choose cash as a payment option.
What Uber services can I pay using cash?
Lyft only offers its services in US and Canada, and they currently do not offer an ability to dispatch local taxis. Hence, you are not able to use cash unfortunately.
