Share the route. Split the cost.
Riders schedule trips ahead of time and sell the seats. You book the one going your way and pay for your seat — not the whole car.
A trip is planned before it's sold.
Pool isn't a car appearing on demand — it's a route someone is already driving, with seats going spare. That's what makes it cheap.
A rider plans a route
Origin, stops, destination and a departure time — scheduled a day ahead. They set the seats and the price per seat.
You book a seat
Find the trip going your way, pick your boarding and drop points, and book the seats you need.
You board with a code
When the trip starts you get a pickup code. The rider enters it to confirm the right passenger got in.
Escrow releases
Your payment is held from the moment you book, and only reaches the rider once the trip is complete.
The rider prices the seat. You see it before you book.
Pool is the one service without a distance formula — the rider setting the route decides what a seat on it is worth, and you either take it or you don't.
Why no calculator here. A pool seat has no per-km rate for us to compute — pricing one on this page would mean inventing a number. You'll see the real per-seat price on each trip in the app.
Paid up front, held in escrow
Pool is the one service where the full amount is taken when you book — it has to be, or seats get held and never paid for. It sits in escrow until the trip runs.
Rs 500 rider deposit
The rider puts up a security deposit for the trip, held while it runs. Their money is on the line too.
26% cancellation
The same rule as everywhere else on Drivio, and it applies to the rider just as much as to you.
How escrow protects both sides.
Sharing a car with strangers only works if neither side can burn the other. Escrow is how that's enforced rather than hoped for.
- Your money is held by Drivio, not handed to a stranger.
- It doesn't reach the rider until the trip is actually complete.
- The rider has a deposit at risk, so ghosting you costs them.
- If they cancel, you're refunded and they pay the penalty.
- Seats are paid for before departure — no empty no-shows.
- The passenger's money is already committed when you set off.
- A pickup code confirms the right person boarded your vehicle.
- A passenger who cancels pays the penalty, not you.
