For drivers

Put your empty seatsto better use.

If you are already making a journey, UpDown helps you publish the route, share the practical details, and decide which seat requests work for you.

Publish with clarity

A useful listing starts with good information

01

Use the right vehicle

Add the vehicle name and registration details, then select that vehicle when publishing the journey.

02

Describe the plan

Set the pickup, destination, departure time, available seats, and split-fare information accurately.

03

Keep it current

Update or cancel a journey promptly if your timing or availability changes.

Regular routes

Make recurring travel easier to manage

For journeys you repeat, set selected days and an end date instead of publishing every occurrence from scratch.

  • Choose only the days you genuinely expect to travel.
  • Set an end date and review the series when plans change.
  • Keep seats and fare information accurate for each journey.
  • Cancel affected rides as early as reasonably possible.

Review requests thoughtfully

Use the profile and ride-request information available in the App. Accept only requests you are comfortable coordinating and decline requests you cannot accommodate. Do not pressure a rider to share unnecessary personal information.

Set expectations before departure

Confirm the pickup point, timing, luggage space, number of passengers, and the split-fare information already shown for the journey. A short, clear message can prevent most last-minute confusion.
