Question 1

What's the daily flat pass cover?

Accepted Answer

The planned model is one daily fee with no per-ride commission. The $30/day limited-time and $50/day standard figures are future-beta scenarios, subject to confirmation with invited drivers.

Question 2

What happens on days I don't drive?

Accepted Answer

The future flat model is designed around a fee only on active driving days. It is not currently available because public driver activation is not open yet.

Question 3

How does the flat fee compare to 25% commission?

Accepted Answer

The future-beta comparison models 25% commission against a $30/day limited-time flat fee and $50/day standard positioning. Break-even is illustrated at $120 in fares; invited drivers will receive confirmed terms before launch.

Question 4

Can I switch tiers day to day?

Accepted Answer

The beta pricing plan is designed to let invited drivers review the flat and commission options. Any switching terms will be confirmed during invitation and review.

Question 5

How do payouts work?

Accepted Answer

Payout timing is part of the beta review and will be confirmed with invited drivers. This public page does not promise live rides or payouts.

Question 6

Do riders pay more for using DayFare?

Accepted Answer

Rider pricing is still being finalized for the beta. Public rider booking is not open yet.

Question 7

Is DayFare for full-time drivers?

Accepted Answer

The closed beta is intended for a small group of drivers, including full-time and part-time applicants. The $120 break-even point is an illustrative future-beta scenario, not a current earnings promise.

Question 8

What's DayFare's stance vs. Uber and Lyft?

Accepted Answer

The side-by-side explains DayFare's planned flat and commission scenarios against common platform models. It is informational while the closed beta is under review; see the comparison before applying.

Question 9

Where is DayFare launching?

Accepted Answer

The planned beta service area covers all of New Jersey. New York is excluded. Public rider booking and driver activation are not open yet.

Question 10

Do drivers need commercial insurance to drive DayFare?

Accepted Answer

Coverage requirements for the New Jersey beta will be confirmed before invitations. Do not assume an application or waitlist entry authorizes driving on DayFare.

Question 11

What about slow days — when I don't clear $120 in fares?

Accepted Answer

The future-beta scenario models 25% commission below the $120 break-even point and the flat model above it. The terms are subject to review and are not a promise of current access or earnings.
