## About the product

LincRide is a Lagos-based mobility service from **Linc Ride Limited** that started as a **carpooling** platform in February 2026 and added **instant ride-hailing** on 15 October 2026.

Key capabilities include:
- **Carpool matching**: riders enter where and when they are going and are matched with drivers (called Hosts) already travelling a similar route. They can check profiles, route fit, and ratings before joining, and costs are split with no surge pricing.
- **Driver-set trips**: Hosts post their route, set the price, choose how many seats to offer, and decide who joins.
- **Instant rides**: on-demand trips with verified drivers, bookable in the app or by **WhatsApp** without downloading anything. Riders see the driver's name, photo, plate number, and a fare estimate before pickup.
- **Safety tools**: identity verification for users, trip sharing, travel check-in, and emergency features.

Available on **Web**, **Android**, and **iOS**, with payment by card, bank transfer, or cash.

It serves **commuters in Lagos** and **drivers** who want to fill empty seats or take instant ride requests. Drivers pay a **7.5% commission** on their first five instant rides each day and 2.5% on every ride after that. New riders get a ₦5,000 voucher toward their first rides.

In a sponsored partner article on TechCabal, LincRide says its carpooling service has more than 500 Hosts and 10,000 users, and that 3,000 verified drivers were onboarded for the instant ride launch.
