Don't worry if you don't own a car. You can still work as a driver because rideshare services have rental options, and the company takes care of the car's maintenance. Alternatively, you can explore opportunities as a motor-courier or bike-courier with companies like UberEats, Instacart, and Doordash.
Which car is recommended for rideshare services?

The specific make and model of the car aren't a big deal. What matters most is that the car is in good shape.

If you're a new driver, you'll receive a bonus when you sign up, and you're sure to be paid in your first month on the job. The exact amount might be different depending on the city.
