Driver guidance

Cost sharing

This service is for sharing planned journey costs, not taxi or private-hire work.

How contributions work

A passenger contribution should reflect a fair share of a planned trip. The driver remains part of the journey, and the contribution is not meant to turn the trip into a fare.

Planned journeys only

This service is for people already making a journey and offering spare seats, not for on-demand taxi or private-hire work.

Passenger contributions

Passengers may contribute toward reasonable journey costs such as distance, fuel or energy, tolls, parking, and similar trip costs.

Driver responsibility

Drivers are responsible for setting fair contributions and checking that their licence, insurance, vehicle use, and local rules allow the journey they offer.

Keep costs fair

The suggested contribution is a guide. Drivers should avoid pricing journeys as profit-making fares.
