Poparide is Canada's largest city-to-city carpooling platform, connecting drivers and passengers for shared rides across the country. Founded in 2010 in Vancouver, the company operates an online marketplace that promotes social, affordable, and sustainable travel. By filling empty seats in cars, Poparide helps reduce costs, road congestion, and carbon emissions, while also providing access to communities with limited public transportation options. The platform allows users to post trips, find rides, book and pay securely, and review their experiences. With over 2 million users, Poparide is focused on expanding its reach and aims to grow its membership significantly. The service caters to various customer segments, including travelers, students, and environmentally conscious individuals. Poparide has saved over 41,000 metric tons of CO2 since 2015 and prioritizes safety with verified drivers and multiple protective measures. The company is headquartered in Vancouver and plans to expand into the United States and beyond.
