Lyft connects passengers with drivers through a mobile app, primarily serving urban commuters, students, and tourists in the United States and Canada. The platform offers various ride options, including standard, luxury, and shared rides, catering to different customer preferences. Lyft operates on a gig economy model, where drivers use their own vehicles, and the company earns revenue by taking a commission from each ride fare. In addition to car rides, Lyft provides bike and scooter rentals, and has a subscription service called Lyft Pink that offers benefits for a monthly fee. The company emphasizes safety and community guidelines to ensure a secure experience for users, while also supporting drivers with flexible payment options. Lyft's goal is to provide reliable transportation solutions while diversifying its revenue streams and exploring self-driving technology.
