SÛR RIDESHARE CLUB

1Driver Qualifications

Sûr seeks serious, professional rideshare drivers who will be a part of us for a very long time. But if you're already driving for Uber or Lyft, that's you!

  • You will need to pay up front the fee for your background and MVR check. To keep its own fees low Sûr cannot afford to front these.
  • However, these fees will be refunded after you complete your first 100 rides with Sûr!
  • Our requrements are listed below - you already meet them if you are driving for Uber or Lyft!
    • No more than three minor traffic violations (speeding, failure to yield, etc.) within the past three years.
    • No major traffic violation (OWI/OVI, reckless driving, fleeing and eluding, leaving the scene of an accident, etc.) within the past seven years.
    • No major traffic felony (homicide by vehicle, vehicular assault, reckless driving causing death, etc.)
    • No conviction for violent felonies (homicide, armed robbery, etc.) or sex offenses/sexual assault.
    • No conviction for non-violent felonies or serious misdemeanors (assault, battery, weapons) within the past seven years.
    • No pending charges for any of the above.
    • If 25 or over, valid license with 1 year of driving experience; if under 25, valid license with 3 years of driving experience.
    • 4-door vehicle that seats 5, 15 years old or newer, annual safety inspection, no altered title.
    • Active personal auto insurance policy with rideshare endorsement.

2Download & Install

Sûr operates just like other rideshare apps.

  • Download the Sûr Driver app from Google Play Store or Apple App Store.
  • Open the app and grant the requested Location and Overlay permissions. These allow Sûr to know your location and find the best rider for you.

3Create Your Account & Wallet

Sûr uses Web3 technology to eliminate banking middlemen, but you don't need to be a crypto expert to use it.

  • Verify: Enter your email. You will receive a secure One-Time Password (OTP) to log in.
  • Invisible Web3: Behind the scenes, Sûr automatically generates a secure Solana wallet tied directly to your device.
  • Sign the Pact: You will cryptographically sign the 501(c)(7) Mutual Aid Cooperative Agreement, officially becoming a club member.
  • Start Earning: After clearing our background checks, you are ready to begin earning. You are paid immediately in USDC (a digital token pegged exactly to the US Dollar) after completing a ride. Solana blockchain transactions typically clear in seconds.
  • Offramping: You can exchange USDC back for USD at any time. You can do this right inside the app using CoinBase, which offers zero-fee exchanges between USD and USDC. We strongly recommend you set up a CoinBase account.

4How to Earn

Sûr gives you all the options.

  • Choose the maximum drive time to a rider you are willing to make (under Options).
  • Unlike Uber/Lyft, Sûr allows you to choose between multiple offers according to a criterion you choose (under Options).
  • Compare what Uber/Lyft would offer the rider at the touch of a button.
  • Sûr will prioritize offers to you based on your chosen criterion (e.g. maximum $/hour). No more declining rides hoping you get a better offer!
  • Once you tap the green "Accept" button., you are guaranteed payment even if the rider cancels.
  • Our intelligent mapping software charts out for you the fastest ride.

5Complete Transparency

Sûr gives you all the information.

  • After completing a ride, you receive all of the fare minus Sur's $1.20 fee, and other applicable taxes, fees, and insurance.
  • No more 50% "take rates" like Uber and Lyft!
  • You will receive an email with complete transparency of where every cent of the fare went.

6The Sûr Guarantee

Sûr has a zero-tolerance policy for bad rider behavior.

  • Sûr is only for individuals who value their membership and will act accordingly.
  • Upon documentation of unacceptable behavior (harassment, vehicle damage, etc.) the violator's membership will be revoked immediately.
  • Unlike Uber/Lyft, we do not keep these people around in the hope of increasing revenue. The Sûr experience is most valuable to us!
