Carpooling for India

Better rides. 
Better together.

Smart carpooling for a better tomorrow. A driver shares a journey they are already making, you book a seat along the way, and everyone splits the running cost.

Sharing a ride, not selling one

Three rules sit at the centre of Zpool. They are built into the platform, not just printed on a page.

Driver led journeys

Nobody is dispatched and nobody hails a stranger. A driver publishes a trip they are already taking, and riders heading the same way book a seat.

Cost sharing, not earning

The total a driver can collect is capped at 110 percent of the trip's running cost. A driver recovers fuel and wear, never turns a profit. The ceiling is built into the platform.

You pay the driver directly

Your seat money goes straight to the driver by cash or UPI. Zpool never holds your fare and never takes a cut of it. We charge only a small, clearly shown booking fee.

How it works

Three steps to a shared ride

Whether you are offering a seat or looking for one, pooling on Zpool is simple.

Step 1

A driver shares a trip

Someone already driving your way publishes their route, departure time, free seats and a per seat cost within the fair ceiling.

Step 2

You find a matching seat

Search by where you are going and when. Zpool shows trips that pass through your route, sorted by earliest departure or lowest cost.

Step 3

Book, ride and split the cost

Reserve a seat, share a pickup code at the start, and pay your share of fuel and tolls directly to the driver. One less car on the road.

Safety and trust

Built to feel safe, by design

Carpooling means sharing a car with someone new. These are the things Zpool puts in place so that feels right.

Verified drivers

Every driver submits a licence, vehicle papers, insurance and pollution certificate. Our team reviews them before any trip can be published.

Your number stays private

Your real phone number is not shown to the other person. Personal contact details are kept off screen.

Live trip on the map

Once a trip starts, the driver's location is shared with riders so the journey can be followed in real time.

Route deviation alerts

If the vehicle leaves the planned route, both the driver and riders are alerted at once so everyone stays aware.

Women only and men only trips

Drivers can restrict a trip by gender. The rule is enforced at booking, not left to chance.

Grievance redressal

A named Grievance Officer reviews reports within a 30 day window, as required by Indian IT Rules.

Go green

Every shared seat is one less car

  • Zpool tracks the carbon dioxide saved on every completed trip, compared with driving alone.
  • Each shared trip means fewer cars on the road and a lighter footprint for everyone in it.
  • You build up green points as you pool. Ways to use them are on the way.

Carbon saved, tracked per trip

Zpool measures the carbon dioxide you keep off the road on every completed trip, compared with driving alone, and turns it into green points you build up over time.

Pooling vs a cab

A different idea of a ride

Zpool is not a cheaper taxi. It is a seat in a journey that was already happening.

Questions

Good to know

No. Zpool is carpooling. A driver publishes a journey they are already making and shares the empty seats. There is no dispatch, no hailing and no surge pricing. You join a trip that was happening anyway.
