How does Lyft work?
The Lyft platform connects Lyft Drivers with riders (passengers). Both Driver and Riders need to download the Lyft App on their smartphones. Whenever you need a ride, the Lyft system will connect you with the nearest driver. He or she will pick you up and take you to your destination.
Do you have to pay in cash?
No. With Lyft everything is done with credit card. When you sign up with Lyft as a rider you will need to enter your credit card information. Whenever you use Lyft, all transactions are cashless and done with your credit card. You never pay the driver in cash and you only tip if you want to.
Why should I use Lyft instead of traditional taxis?
Lyft is generally cheaper than most traditional taxis (in most areas). Lyft’s drivers also drive late model vehicles and keep their vehicles clean and in good condition (mandatory requirements for all drivers). In contrast, many traditional taxis do not maintain their vehicles in high standards and they tend to charge more.
Besides that, Lyft has a rating system where you (the rider) can rate the driver. If a driver is nice and professional, most riders will leave him or her a good rating. If a driver is unprofessional and or unfriendly, most likely he or she will receive poor ratings and eventually be removed from the Lyft system.
This rating system helps Lyft keep the best professional and friendly drivers. In contrast, most traditional taxis do not have a rating system and thereby many of their drivers have poor customer service.
Traditional taxis also operate within a monopoly industry. Since there is little competition, they can get away with poor customer service. However, now with Lyft, Uber and other Rideshare companies emerging, many traditional taxis are losing customers.
Don’t get me wrong. Many traditional taxi drivers are professional and have excellent customer service. However, having worked in the taxi industry for a few years I know that many of their drivers and dispatchers do not give out good customer service to their clients.
However, since Lyft has a rating system, this helps weed out the bad apples and keep only the good drivers. Of course the system is not perfect and not without controversy (some riders can be unreasonable and give good drivers bad ratings) however it is much better than having no customer service rating system.
Where can I use Lyft?
You can use Lyft in nearly the entire world. Lyft is operating in nearly every major city of the United States and is also operating in many countries. Lyft is restricted and prohibited in a few countries. However, in many countries it has become a popular alternative to traditional taxis.
In short, Lyft is not perfect however for many people it is a better alternative to traditional taxis.
