To be eligible to rent a car for Uber and Lyft, candidates must meet certain requirements: they must be at least 25 years old, have a valid driver's licence, and have one to three years of driving experience. Both Uber and Lyft do background checks, which include checking driving records and criminal histories. In addition, rental programmes may have their own screening processes. It's important to verify that you meet these requirements and the specific criteria set by Uber, Lyft, or the rental program of your choice.
Could you please tell what the rental cost is?

Lyft and Uber car rental services have a weekly charge of $260 before tax, yet the total spend can vary depending on local tax structures and the length of time the vehicle is rented.

As a rideshare driver, you have the flexibility to choose your own working hours and determine how long you want to use the rented vehicle for ridesharing purposes.

Being a Lyft driver is a rewarding way to earn money. When passengers complete their rides, they pay through the Lyft app, and drivers receive a portion of the fees, which are deposited into their accounts weekly. Earnings vary based on hours worked, location and potential bonuses during peak periods. Typically, drivers can expect to earn around $2,000 per trip.
