What do you need to rent a car?
+
To rent a car for Uber and Lyft services, you need to be at least 25 years old, hold a valid driver's license, and have a minimum of one to three years of driving experience. Both Uber and Lyft conduct background checks on drivers, which involve reviewing driving records and criminal histories. Additionally, rental programs may have their own screening processes. It's important to comply with these requirements and ensure you meet the specific criteria set by Uber, Lyft, or the rental program you choose.
What is the rental price?
+
The weekly cost of using Lyft and Uber car rental services amounts to $260 per week before tax; however, the final cost may vary due to varying local tax regulations and the duration of the rental.

Do car rental policies for ridesharing services include requirements for working hours?
+
Uber doesn't set specific hours for the use of a rented vehicle. Drivers have the flexibility to set their own schedules and decide how long they use the rented vehicle for ridesharing. Whether driving part-time or full-time, the duration can be adapted to individual preferences. In comparison, Lyft requires drivers to make a minimum of 20 trips per week.

Does rental cover maintenance?
+

Can I use a rented car for different ridesharing and delivery services?
+
Choosing Uber locks drivers into its service without the ability to diversity, unlike Lyft's FlexDrive agreement, which allows drivers to explore different delivery or travel options, as long as their vehicle meets the required standards.
Can you give me the variations of my potential income?
+
Driving with Lyft is an excellent opportunity to earn money. When passengers complete their ride, they conveniently pay through the Lyft app. Drivers receive a portion of the ride fees from passengers, and their earnings are automatically deposited into their accounts weekly.
Earnings depend on how many hours you work, what city you are in, and what hours you work. During peak hours, it is possible to get bonuses. On average, drivers can earn from 2 000 dollars, working for 1 service.
