More services
With Ride Preferences, your rider can request their ideal in-car temperature and let you know if they wish to chat, all before you arrive.
Opt-in
Eligible drivers will be automatically opted into the Comfort product, after submitting a clear picture of your DVLA Vehicle Registration Certificate.
