## What is RideAlong?

RideAlong is ride-sharing built exclusively for verified college students. Whether you need a ride across campus, to the airport, or back home for the weekend, RideAlong connects you with fellow students heading your way and splits the cost.

WHY RIDEALONG

- Verified students only. Every rider and driver signs up with a valid .edu email, so you're always riding with someone from your own campus community.
- Fair, transparent pricing. See your exact contribution before you book, with a calculated price range based on distance so no one overpays or undercharges.
- Secure in-app payments. Pay with a saved card or Apple Pay. Your payment is only captured after your ride is complete.
- Real driver verification. Every driver's license, insurance, and vehicle are reviewed before they're approved to drive.

FOR RIDERS
- Post a ride request with your pickup, drop-off, date, and time. Nearby drivers send you offers.
- Browse available rides already posted by drivers heading your direction.
- Track your ride in real time, message your driver, and rate your trip when it's done.
- Save routes you take often for faster booking next time.

FOR DRIVERS
- Post a ride with your route, schedule, available seats, and price per seat.
- Review and accept ride requests from students along your route.
- Get paid automatically after every completed ride.
- Track your earnings and ride history in one place.

SAFETY FIRST
- Every account is tied to a verified student identity.
- Emergency contacts and in-app safety tools are built in.
- Rate and review every ride to keep the community accountable.

Stop paying full price to get around campus alone. Download RideAlong and start splitting the ride.
