What is RideMatch
RideMatch transforms everyday travel into shared value.
With millions of empty seats already on the road, we connect people moving in the same direction and turn mobility into a social, efficient, and rewarding experience.
Whether it’s reducing pollution, finding human connection, saving money on daily travel, or simply helping one another, RideMatch brings it all together into one intelligent system.
Mobility Today Doesn’t Work
Unused Capacity
Most cars run empty.
No Incentives
There is no reward for sharing movement.
No Trust Layer
People ride without knowing who they’re with.
Expensive Rides
Traditional ride-hailing costs NIS 80–150 per trip.
No Measurable Impact
There is no way to track real environmental benefit.
How RideMatch Makes Money
- 20% redemption fee on rewards
- Brands pay to enter the ecosystem
- Increased engagement = higher reward circulation
Core Principles
Brand Partnerships
Brands reward verified mobility with meaningful incentives such as fuel discounts, coffee, and local offers.
Two-Sided Matching
Both riders and drivers choose each other based on route, preferences, affinities, and value.
Validated Movement
Rewards are only unlocked after real travel is verified (distance and destination).
Dual Rewards
Drivers earn rewards for offering seats. Riders earn rewards for choosing trusted shared mobility.
Impact Layer
Every ride contributes to measurable environmental and behavioral outcomes, plus we reduce congestions between 5% to 11% based on market studies and save cities the need to bring transportation infrastructures, mot to mention the “last mile” problem is solved without other vehicules.
