One app, two ways to travel

Shared rides,made straightforward.

UpDown gives riders and drivers a clear way to find one another, agree on a journey, and keep ride details organised from request to completion.

For riders

From search to seat request

Look for a suitable journey, review the details, then ask the driver for the seats you need.

Choose a pickup, destination, date, time, and number of seats. Location search helps you select the right places.

Browse suitable journeys in list or map view. Review the driver, route, timing, fare information, seats, and vehicle.

Request your seat, follow the status, and use the in-app conversation to agree on practical details.

For drivers

Publish a journey you are already planning and decide which requests work for you.

Save the vehicle name and registration information you will use for the journey.

Add the route, schedule, seats, and split-fare information. Set selected days for a recurring journey when needed.

Look at potential passengers and accept or decline before the trip. Keep upcoming and completed rides organised.

The journey flow

A shared ride works best when everyone understands what comes next.

Riders search for a route. Drivers publish a route they plan to travel.

The rider asks for seats. The driver reviews the request and chooses whether to accept it.

Use journey details, notifications, and conversations to confirm the pickup point and timing.

After the shared journey, keep it in ride history and provide a rating where available.

Find a ride that fits your plans or offer your empty seats to people travelling your way.
