Why Ride With Cryder?

The ride app Cryder doesn’t have a “Get Your First Ride Free!” promotion, or a “First $20 On Us!” gimmick to entice you to use their services. Which, in todays world, can seem a little stranger than people actually pushing their product in your face with commercials and big billboard advertisements. Why not advertise? Excellent question.
Cryder is an application truly built by the people, for the people. It is a decentralised, open sourced, application, meaning that anyone can access and view the code and therefore anyone can review, scrutinise and utilise said code. With Cryder there is no “Man” to which you or the drivers will pay fees or commission, everything that you pay goes straight to the driver. The no advertising and absence of fees stems from the fact that there is no “Man” or Company controlling this application and, therefore, no one controlling the data and the prices. No one setting the prices!
What does all this mean for you as a rider? Let's make this easy to read and easy to explain to your friends:

• Cheaper Rides in General: Drivers compete for your ride. Meaning that each driver will, upon seeing your requested trip, enter the price he/she is willing to accept for providing that service. Many drivers can bid on a ride and you then select which price suits your budget.
• Cheaper Rides During Surge Times: Uber and Lyft take a percentage of a driver's earning, From a Cryder driver, no one does. This means that when prices “surge” on these other apps you can migrate to Cryder and pay a slightly higher Cryder price but a much lower price overall, because all of your money goes to the driver.
• Security: A recent hack of the Uber database has reminded us that no centralised application is safe from such attacks. With Cryder all of your payment and personal information is stored on your device and not accessible to anyone else. Not to your driver and definitely not to Cryder. Once your trip is complete, payment is made and all traces of the transaction are removed from the app. Disappearing forever. Riders are completely anonymous in the Cryder universe.
• Trust Through Anonymity: Until they pull up next to you, your driver doesn’t know anything about you (besides your location and destination) and you have their profile and registration plate so you can identify the correct vehicle. Every trip is tracked via GPS and deleted after the journey and payment are complete. So you can be assured that, in the same way current ride apps look out for you, the Cryder app will be doing the same.
• Review System: There will be a review system implemented into the Cryder application, however, the finer details are yet to be finalised. It’ll probably be similar to the ones you’re familiar with now in currently available peer-to-peer ride app.

Cryder is another option for you to compare with other ride-sharing apps. A great one at that! It’s network means that you, the rider, know what you’re paying from the start and can ensure you get the best possible price every time. You don’t have to use Cryder every time you ride, but you may find yourself using it more often than you think.
