Leveling up with RideLuv
The starting point
RideLuv combines nightlife discovery (bars, rooftops, karaoke, parties) with transportation. It needed a rider app, a driver app and the dispatch and payment logic.
The challenge
Fit a social app with stories and followers and a real-time ride-hailing service into a single product, with per-ride payment and weekly payouts to drivers.
Challenge met
RideLuv is on the App Store, along with its RideLuv Pro driver app. Riders find their night out and book their ride, drivers receive rides and get paid every week.
