What are the main requirements i should know before renting a car?
+
To meet the eligibility criteria for renting a vehicle to operate with Uber and Lyft, individuals must be at least 25 years of age, have a valid driver's licence, and have one to three years of driving experience. Background checks, which include driving history and criminal record checks, are undertaken by both Uber and Lyft. In addition, car hire programmes may administer their own screening protocols. It is important to meet these requirements and make sure you meet the specific standards set by Uber, Lyft, or the rental program of your choice.
Could you please tell what the rental cost is?
+
The cost of using Lyft and Uber car rental services amounts to $260 per week before taxes; however, the total amount spent may vary due to varying local tax regulations and the duration of rental.
Which car is better to rent for work?
+
Uber Rent gives you access to an incredible range of vehicles, so you're sure to find the perfect one to suit your needs. Whether you're interested in the elegance of a BMW 3 Series, the efficiency of a Ford Fiesta, the durability of a Jeep Compass or the uniqueness of a Kia Soul, we've got you covered. The Lyft service also offers a variety of car models to choose from.
Is it possible to rent a car without needing to pay a deposit?
+
Hertz weekly rentals require a $200 refundable security deposit, whereas Avis does not.
For what period can you rent a car?
+
You're free to extend your rental beyond the initial seven days and return whenever it suits you. Our rental options start from as little as one hour, but a daily rate applies. Alternatively, if you need a car for a longer period, you can book for up to six months.
Are there requirements for the number of working hours when you rent a car for ridesharing?
+
Uber does not have specific limits on the number of hours you can work in a car for hire. Rideshare drivers have the freedom to set their own schedules and decide how long they use the car for driving. The rental period is flexible and based on individual preferences, whether you choose to drive part-time or full-time. Meanwhile, Lyft requires a minimum of 20 weekly trips for rental vehicles.

Can I work in various ridesharing and delivery services with a rented car?
+
Choosing Uber as a primary service tends to limit drivers to the Uber platform, while choosing Lyft's FlexDrive rental opens up opportunities for drivers to undertake various delivery or travel services, provided their vehicle meets the required standards.
What will be 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.
