Ryde Technologies LLC operates Ryde, a US super-app that puts six local services behind one account: on-demand and scheduled rides, restaurant delivery through Ryde Eats, grocery delivery, retail and pharmacy shopping, home services such as plumbing, cleaning, HVAC and babysitting, and same-day courier. One login, one map and a single wallet that takes cash, card or prepaid balance cover all six, and Ryde says the web app books everything the iOS and Android apps do.
On pricing, Ryde's stated position is that it runs no surge multipliers at all: fares are quoted from a published base rate plus a per-kilometer rate set by city zone, and riders see the full estimate before they confirm. For drivers the company publishes a descending commission scale — 15% on fares up to $20, 12% up to $50, and 10% above $50 — which it contrasts with the roughly 25% flat take it describes as the industry norm. Couriers keep the delivery fee by default.
Safety and accountability features include a one-time code to start a trip or hand off a delivery, live GPS tracking on every trip, masked phone numbers between riders and drivers, in-app SOS with pre-set emergency contacts, and e-signed service records with completion photos for home visits. Ryde Technologies lists its business address as 24 Rodeo Dr., Beverly Hills, CA 90210.

Ryde Technologies LLC. FAQ
Quick answers to the questions people ask most.
What is Ryde and what can you book through it?
Ryde is a super-app run by Ryde Technologies LLC that combines six services in a single account: rides (on-demand or scheduled), restaurant delivery through Ryde Eats, grocery delivery from nearby stores, retail and pharmacy shopping, home services such as plumbing, cleaning, HVAC and babysitting, and same-day courier for packages. All six share one login, one map and one wallet.
Does Ryde use surge pricing?
Ryde states that it does not — the company says surge multipliers do not exist on the platform. Fares are quoted from a published base rate plus a per-kilometer rate set by city zone, and the app shows the full fare estimate before you confirm the booking, so the price is not negotiated at the curb.
How much commission does Ryde take from drivers?
Ryde publishes a descending commission scale: 15% on fares up to $20, 12% on fares up to $50, and 10% on fares above $50 — so the platform’s cut shrinks as the fare grows. The company contrasts this with the roughly 25% flat commission it describes as the industry standard. For courier deliveries, Ryde says its default cut of the delivery fee is zero.
How do you pay on Ryde?
Ryde accepts cash, card, or prepaid balance held in the in-app Ryde Wallet, and the same wallet works across rides, food, groceries, retail, home services and courier jobs. Card payments are processed in-app and the wallet can be topped up in advance.
All 12 questions →Show fewer questions
Can you use Ryde without downloading the app?
Yes. Ryde offers iOS and Android apps but says the website has parity with them — you can book rides, order from stores and book home services from the browser after signing in. The company states there are no app-only features.
Can you schedule a Ryde in advance?
Yes. Rides can be booked on demand or scheduled ahead, and Ryde says scheduling is supported up to 90 days out. Vehicle options range from economy to luxury.
What safety features does Ryde have?
According to Ryde, every trip has live GPS tracking, an in-app SOS button that reaches emergency services, and emergency contacts you set up in advance. Drivers pass document checks plus a live selfie match, a one-time code has to be entered before a ride starts (deliveries use two codes — one at pickup, one at the destination), phone numbers between riders and drivers are masked, and ratings run in both directions.

Ryde shows background-vetted pros — cleaners, plumbers, HVAC techs, handymen, babysitters — on a live availability map with color-coded status. Booking a slot locks it so the same window cannot be double-booked, the pro enters a one-time code at the start of the job, and the callout fee is fixed up front rather than negotiated at the door. Ryde says completed jobs produce an e-signed service record meeting U.S. E-SIGN Act standards, with completion photos and GPS and device timestamps attached.
What does Ryde offer drivers beyond the commission rate?
Ryde runs a Pro tier ladder — Blue, Gold, Platinum, Diamond — where higher tiers get priority support and earlier visibility on requests, based on trip points and consistency. The company also offers time-boxed trip completion challenges with cash bonuses and a referral program paying $100 to the referrer and a $50 welcome bonus to the new driver. Drivers can take both rides and deliveries in the same session, and there is a driver-side AI copilot that coaches from real platform data.
How do merchants and stores join Ryde?
Ryde says onboarding is built to be fast — its AI assembles a store catalog from photos in minutes — and that merchants get an append-only transaction ledger they can audit. Merchants that run their own couriers get first pick on their deliveries before jobs go out to the wider fleet.
What is the Ryde AI assistant and can it book things for you?
Ryde ships an AI assistant that takes voice or text requests, quotes real distances, prices and ETAs, and tracks orders in progress. Ryde states the assistant is restricted to platform-verified data and is not permitted to invent merchants, prices or ETAs, and that it cannot complete a booking without your explicit confirmation. It is reachable even when logged out, and the driver-side version is barred from making earnings promises.
How does Ryde compare with Uber and Lyft?
The practical differences Ryde points to are coverage and pricing structure: one app spanning rides, food, groceries, retail, home services and courier versus the two-app split at Uber, a home services category the major rideshare apps do not offer at all, no surge multipliers, and a descending rather than flat driver commission. Uber and Lyft still hold far larger driver networks and longer operating history in most markets, which matters for wait times.
