How does Waze Rider work?
Ask for a ride in advance and we’ll notify you when a Wazer along your route has offered to pick you up. Once the ride is set, all you have to do is show up on time, ready to go!
How much does it cost?
Waze Riders help cover the cost of gas in exchange for a ride. Payment is transferred automatically upon drop-off.
Who’s driving?
Your driver is an everyday Wazer with a similar commute planned, who would be taking the trip anyway. Pairing up means one less car on the road - great! See the driver's profile to view verified information, number of rides given, and 'thanks' received from previous riders. When a trip is set, you can message in-app before pickup. Many drivers and riders even choose to drive together again.
Enjoy a friendlier commute with Waze Rider: an uninterrupted ride on the fastest route with the least amount of traffic. Plus, minimize your carbon footprint and support a greener future with fewer cars on the road.

The app is good in helping people match with each other. However, the app is trash because recently they have been catering to the driver only with further away walk-to locations for the rider. Before, I only had to walk 5, maybe even 10 minutes to the location it says to meet the driver. Now, I’m seeing more often 20+ minutes of walking. Also, the map is inaccurate so it will say the walk is only 8 minutes but when you actually map it out it’s an hour and 20 minute walk. And some drivers won’t meet outside of where the app tells you to meet. The map also will change the location to meet with the same driver when you match at different times. Meaning you will never meet at the same location as before which makes no sense. I’ve also mentioned this to their “customer service” but was met with a very lazy and u resolved answer. It will even tell the rider to take a bus the remainder of your location which defeats the entire purpose of carpooling. Please get it it together.
really wanted this to work, I think it’s a great concept. But finding having to walk 15 minutes to get picked up and then 15 minutes after getting dropped off? I don’t get it and I won’t do that. I also don’t feel comfortable or safe getting into a strangers vehicle that has never carpooled before and has no ratings/ details. Those are my only options.
Like location change issues when moving to a different city etc. When we try to send them an email, they only say they are aware of the issues.
Everything with the app is great. The only that needs major improvement is the UI. The user experience can be made a lot better.
