About Zimride What is Zimride?

For too long we have driven our cars with empty seats. Zimride is a simple way to find friends, classmates and coworkers going the same way you are. Combining social networks and our proprietary route-matching algorithm, we’ve made it easy to share the seats in your car or catch a ride. Zimride empowers you to create social, sustainable and convenient transportation. Together we can get anywhere. Why Zimride?

It's simple! Zimriding is a fun way to get where you need to go. Connect with friends, reduce your carbon footprint and save money. Why does it work?

By focusing on college, university and corporate communities, we are able to build the critical mass of users necessary to sustain Zimride as a reliable form of transportation. Our approach leverages social trust and hands-on marketing efforts to deliver significant savings for schools and corporations of various sizes and commute profiles. What’s Zimride got to do with Facebook?

We embrace ridesharing as a social activity and Facebook provides a rich social context to connect and establish trust. Zimriders can view profiles for common networks, interests and friends before deciding to share a ride. The Zimride community has also greatly benefited from a recent Facebook (fbFund) grant, recognizing Zimride’s useful and innovative integration with their platform.
