Investor information

Ride-Now: the no-app ride platform

Ride-hailing taught people to expect a car in minutes and left them with one more app, one more account and surge pricing. Ride-Now keeps the convenience and removes the clutter: one link, no account, no password to remember, a fixed price, online payment and a driver who claims the job directly. A companion app can follow later for customers who want one, but the service never depends on it. The platform is built and deployed at ride-now.ie and is run by FAS Services.

A phone cluttered with apps versus one Ride-Now booking link

No app. No clutter. No account. No password to remember.

  • Cheaper to win a customer – no app to advertise, no sign-up to abandon, and bookings come straight to us rather than through a middleman.
  • Works for everyone – a visitor, a hotel guest or a customer who never installs apps books in under a minute.
  • Physical distribution – QR codes on desk stands and business cards at hotels, golf clubs and venues put Ride-Now where the journey starts.
  • No dispatcher payroll – the engine prices, offers and assigns every job; a small team oversees the board.
  • Money before the driver – card payment at booking; a job is released to drivers only once the money clears, and abandoned bookings expire on their own.

How the platform works

One engine, five faces

A single API powers the client booking app, the hotel front-desk page, the driver web portal, the driver iPhone app and the operations portal. A booking made anywhere appears everywhere instantly.

Asset-light fleet

Drivers join by invite and register their own SPSV-licensed car; it becomes quotable to clients immediately. Growth means adding drivers, not buying cars.

Revenue per ride

The platform keeps a small share of every fare while staying competitive with the major players – so drivers earn more per ride and customers pay a fair fixed price. The split is recorded the moment a job completes.
