Waze Carpool is now offering a $10 – 20 welcome bonus for new drivers and riders and a $20 bonus reward for each person you refer to the carpool app.
Waze Carpool is a platform that connects drivers with riders, digitalizing the casual carpool experience. Although it’s often compared to Uber and Lyft, Waze Carpool is quite different. With the former two ride share apps, drivers are independent contractors earning fares. Waze Carpool drivers, on the other hand, are only earning gas money while saving time in their daily commutes.
Let’s take a closer look at Waze Carpool and its current offers below. Find more rideshare promotions here.

Waze Carpool Pricing
Riders are charged a maximum rate of $0.58 per mile. That’s the current IRS reimbursement rate for business travel via car. A Waze Carpool driver can get up to $19, depending on the distance and the number of riders.
Bottom Line
If you’re looking for other people to commute with, sharing costs and getting access to the express lane, then Waze Carpool is an excellent option. However, it might be hard to get a ride if the app is not widely used in your area.
