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.

The standard rate for Lyft and Uber car rentals is $260 per week, not including tax, with the final cost subject to change depending on local tax rates and the length of the rental.

Uber Rent gives you access to an incredible range of vehicles, so you're sure to find the perfect one to suit your needs.

How much can i earn while working in rideshare companies?
+
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.
