Travel / Driveinhud: An Affordable Solution To Transport Costs In Nigeria- Businessday.ng by Charpell(m): 12:24pm On Aug 09, 2023
In Nigeria, bustling cities like Lagos, Benin, and Ibadan are facing a common challenge of increasing traffic congestion and soaring transportation expenses, putting immense strain on their residents and prompting the search for viable solutions.

In response to this pressing need, DriveInHud, an innovative carpooling service, emerges as a game-changing solution, offering an affordable and eco-friendly alternative.

DriveInHud connects car owners and passengers travelling along similar routes, enabling them to share rides and significantly reduce commuting expenses; a core focus of the platform is ensuring safety and security, providing users with a reliable and trustworthy experience.

Toyin Osifo’s experience exemplifies the mobility challenges faced by many. She used to offer free rides to her colleagues, but the surge in fuel prices made her request contributions for fuel and from them. Unfortunately, her colleagues’ reluctance compelled her to stop the free rides (to work and back home). This underscores the necessity for carpooling services like DriveInHud to ease transportation costs; both fuel and car maintenance.

According to Charpell the CEO of Driveinhud, the app has shown promising progress, growing from 1,200 to 15,000 users in just one week and ranking among the top three travel apps on the Play Store. “Its Android app has received positive reviews, with a rating of 4.4, he said.

Carpooling through DriveInHud benefits car owners and passengers alike, with car owners earning extra income while reducing their own transportation expenses.

For instance, a car owner can carry three passengers from Berger to Lekki daily at N1,500 per person, generating N4,000 per day for a round trip (N270,000 in thirty days) covering fuel and maintenance costs. Passengers, in turn, save on expensive ride-hailing fees.

Furthermore, DriveInHud’s user-friendly platform allows users to book rides similar to booking flights, with options for scheduled pickups and drop-offs. The platform caters to both car owners and passengers, offering three modes of use: car owners picking up passengers, passengers needing rides, and groups of three sharing the cost.

Lagos’ traffic congestion is a pressing issue, with a traffic index score of 348.69, according to Mustard Insight. Factors such as population density, inadequate road networks, and poor drainage contribute to the city’s traffic challenges. The impact is staggering, with an estimated loss of $21 billion per month if congestion remains unaddressed.



DriveInHud aims to address traffic and environmental concerns through carpooling, fostering a sense of familiarity and safety by connecting car owners and passengers within the same industry or job vicinity.

Safety is a top priority, and DriveInHud implements robust security measures. Every user, whether a driver or passenger, undergoes verification by submitting identification, date of birth, and other bio-data details. The platform also includes a video call feature that allows drivers to interact with passengers before scheduling a trip, enhancing security and trust.

Similarly, users are encouraged to rate and review each other, ensuring transparency and providing insights into the reliability of drivers and passengers.

To ensure accessibility, DriveInHud introduces a one-time payment of N1000, covering four trips for car owners. Unlike other ride-hailing apps with commission-based charges, DriveInHud does not charge drivers to retain affordability.

The platform also caters to nationwide trips, connecting car owners and passengers for inter-state travel, further expanding its reach and impact.

As DriveInHud continues its transformative journey in solving Lagos’ transportation challenges, we recognize the immense potential for growth and positive impact. We warmly invite investors to join us in scaling this innovative solution, which not only offers financial returns but also contributes to a more sustainable and eco-friendly future for Lagos and Nigeria. Together, with investor support, we can accelerate our efforts, expand our services to more cities, and empower even more commuters to save costs while reducing their carbon footprint.

By investing in DriveInHud, you can be part of the solution in transforming the way people commute, making a significant difference in creating a greener and more efficient transportation landscape.

Driveinhud is on a mission to transform commuting in Nigeria by offering a dependable, cost-efficient, and eco-friendly commuting solution. Join Driveinhud today to witness the cutting-edge of commuting!

Jobs/Vacancies / Re: Refer And Earn: Get Free Transport To Work With Driveinhud App by Charpell(m): 10:09am On Aug 01, 2023
Unbiased1:


In a way, I feel this is a slightly bad business idea. I believe that the purpose of this referral program is to get more people to know about your services and consequently pay for your services. To ensure you achieve this, users should not be able to withdraw their credits. Instead, credits should act as a form of discount to users who use the app.

Let me explain better:
When I refer a new user to your platform, I get 3 credits. Now these credits should be used as a discount anytime I want to book a ride. If I want to book a ride that costs 500 naira, I will only pay 200 naira while my 3 credits (which equates to #300) should balance up the payment. This way, the credits remain within the app.

If I can withdraw my credits, you will notice that within a short time, more people will begin to refer people not really because they want others to use your app but because your app is now like a Ponzi scheme where anyone can refer anybody just for the sole purpose of making money. On the long run, you will have many users in your database who don't even use your app but are constantly looking for the next person to refer.

Another policy I feel you should introduce is that one cannot earn credits until the person he or she refers completes at least 1 trip using the app. This way you know that you are actually gaining real users who are contributing to the growth of the business.

To further backup my point, I want you to carry out this simple analysis:
1) After 1 month of running this referral program, check the number of users who have gotten credits from this referral program and check if they have even used the app to book a trip before.
2) Now check those who were referred to see if they have ever used the app to book a trip since they registered.

After these two checks, you will agree with me definitely.

This is just my opinion.
Thank you
