Most rideshare platforms work the same way from a driver's side: the app decides the fare, the app takes a cut, and you find out what you actually made after the fact. IntraCab flips that. You see the request, you decide what the trip is worth to you, and whatever the rider pays you in cash is yours — no commission taken off the top.
How it works, step by step
- Switch into driver mode and you'll see ride requests from riders near you, across Guyana and Suriname.
- Decide your price. You know your fuel costs, your time, and the traffic better than any algorithm does — set an offer that makes the trip worth it to you.
- The rider picks an offer — theirs, or possibly a competing driver's. If yours gets accepted, you get the rider's contact info and head to pickup.
- Get paid in cash, trip by trip. No waiting on a payout cycle, no commission line-item disappearing from your total. What you're handed at the end of the trip is what you keep.
Why bidding is better for drivers, not just riders
A fixed platform fare doesn't know that a particular trip is going to fight through construction traffic, or that gas just went up, or that you'd honestly rather not do a specific route at that hour unless the price makes it worth it. When you set your own offer, all of that is priced in by the person who actually knows — you.
It also means your earnings aren't capped by someone else's formula. A driver who's responsive, reliable, and reasonably priced can build a strong rating and keep winning offers — your reputation works for you directly, not through a black box.
Getting started as a driver
To start driving on IntraCab, you'll need:
- A valid driver's license (verified with a quick selfie-with-license check when you sign up)
- A vehicle — car, motorcycle, or bus, depending on what you want to drive
- Your vehicle's registration details
Once your identity and vehicle are verified, you can switch into driver mode any time you want to start seeing requests. There's no minimum hours, no schedule — you're online when you want to be online.
Tips for winning more offers
- Respond fast. Riders often accept the first solid offer that shows up — being quick to respond matters as much as your price.
- Price fairly, not just low. A reasonable price from a highly-rated, responsive driver often beats a slightly cheaper offer from an unknown one.
- Keep your rating up. Good ratings build rider trust, and trust wins offers over time even when you're not the absolute cheapest option.
