What is Lyft?

Lyft is a flexible earning opportunity and a platform that connects drivers with individuals who need rides. Driving with Lyft is the perfect way to earn money on any schedule, serving as a great alternative to traditional part-time, full-time, or seasonal roles. Drivers enjoy the ability to cash out earnings at any time with no hourly requirements, offering true flexibility.

Who Should Drive?

Driving with Lyft is an excellent way to earn extra money or supplement a part-time or full-time income. It is particularly well-suited for teachers looking for a summer gig or anyone seeking seasonal work. While no prior experience is required, drivers with a background in the public or private transportation industry—such as delivery drivers, professional drivers, chauffeurs, luxury drivers, truck drivers, school bus drivers, taxi drivers, or cab drivers—may be a great fit.
