QuestERide vs Uber

Uber is built for short in-city rides with surge pricing and platform-set fares. QuestERide is built for the long-distance trips Uber was never designed for — where drivers post their route and price and riders bid to ride along.

Trip length: QuestERide — Long-distance (50–1,500+ miles); Uber — In-city, typically < 30 miles
Who sets the price: QuestERide — Driver posts a fair per-seat price; riders bid; Uber — Uber's algorithm, with surge multipliers
Driver take-home: QuestERide — Drivers keep the majority of the fare; Uber — Uber's commission plus service fees
Shared seats: QuestERide — Yes — riders share the driver's existing trip; Uber — UberX Share limited to short trips in some cities
Background checks: QuestERide — Checkr-verified drivers; Uber — Checkr-verified drivers

If you're going more than an hour across town, QuestERide beats Uber on price for the rider and pay for the driver. Uber wins for the 10-minute airport hop.
