Seat Sherpa Carpool
Gas is expensive. Carpool.
Only for iPhone
Free
iPhone
Carpool between cities. Verified drivers already making the drive post their drive in advance, up to 90% off rideshare (Lyft/Uber). Now integrated with Apple Maps.
Seat Sherpa is the easiest way to share long-distance car rides. Heading from the Bay Area to Los Angeles, or LA to Las Vegas? Carpool and find a driver already making the drive, grab an open seat, and split the cost of gas.
It's carpooling, reimagined — friendlier than a bus, cheaper than flying, and greener than driving alone.
FOR PASSENGERS
• Search rides between major California & Nevada hubs
• Book a seat in seconds and pay securely in the app
• Message your driver and meet up with a simple pickup code
• Rate every trip — our community keeps each other accountable
FOR DRIVERS
• Already making the drive? Post your trip and fill empty seats
• Offset your gas and tolls by sharing the cost (it's cost-sharing, not a job)
• Get paid securely after each completed ride
• Build a reputation with verified profiles and ratings
SAFETY, BUILT IN
• Driver's license verification
• Two-way ratings after every trip
• In-app messaging — no need to share your phone number
• Block and report tools
• Payments held securely and only released to the driver once your trip starts
HOW IT WORKS
1. Search a route and pick a ride that fits your schedule
2. Book your seat — your payment is held safely until pickup
3. Meet your driver and share your pickup code to start the trip
4. Arrive, then rate each other
SeatSherpa is a cost-sharing carpool platform: drivers share the cost of trips they're already taking with passengers going the same way. It is not a taxi or commercial ride-hailing service. Currently serving California and Nevada, with more regions coming soon.
