inDrive: Celebrating 5 billion deals (and counting!)
inDrive – which also operates in Namibia – is celebrating a major milestone: the completion of 5 billion deals on its global mobility and urban services platform.The landmark 5 billionth deal was sealed by a driver and passenger in Peru, marking a significant moment for inDrive since the company launched its innovative bid-based pricing model in 2012 to make ridesharing pricing fairer for both drivers and passengers.
In the years that followed, inDrive has expanded its mission of improving people’s lives by extending its innovative bid-based model beyond ridesharing. These services now include city-to-city and intercity transportation, courier deliveries, freight services, as well as other urban solutions such as housekeeping and small home repairs. This growth and diversification reflect inDrive’s evolution from being the world’s second-most downloaded mobility app to a global multi-service platform operating across 46 countries.
Over the past 11 years, inDrive has leveraged its strong product-market fit across diverse regions, demonstrating the ability to scale rapidly and secure leading positions across markets without disproportionately focusing on any single country. This underscores the global customer demand for greater freedom of choice and a desire to take back control from algorithms – precisely what the inDrive model provides.
Since launching ride-hailing, its core service, eleven years ago, inDrive passengers have travelled for a total of 123 500 years, covering a distance of 32 billion km. – Distributed by APO Group on behalf of inDrive.
