QuestERide vs Lyft

Lyft is a solid in-city rideshare. But request a 300-mile Lyft and you'll pay a fortune (if you can find a driver at all). QuestERide connects riders with drivers already making the trip.

Availability for long trips: QuestERide — Purpose-built for it; Lyft — Rarely accepted; often no driver
Pricing model: QuestERide — Driver-posted per-seat price + rider bids; Lyft — Platform-set fare + surge
Empty return trips: QuestERide — Drivers can post the return leg too; Lyft — Driver eats the cost of the deadhead
Rider savings: QuestERide — Split the cost with the driver and other riders; Lyft — Solo fare only
Verification: QuestERide — Checkr background checks + ID verification; Lyft — Background checks required

For a night out, use Lyft. For a road trip, weekend visit, or move, QuestERide is the app you actually want.
