Smart Ride was created for a 95-year-old grandmother who needed to stop driving. Now she uses Smart Ride to go to the grocery store, doctor, and beauty parlor any time she wants, with just a phone call.
An In-Demand Service
38% of seniors own a cell phone which is not a smartphone, meaning that these seniors are not able to use Uber. Considering the fact that many seniors who need Uber the most might not be able to use a smartphone, Smart Ride provides an important service to bring the benefits of Uber to an older audience.
Want to try Smart Ride yourself, or do you know someone who could use the service? It’s easy to get started. Simply visit Smart Ride’s website at www.gosmartride.com and sign up for a 30-day free trial. After that, Smart Ride is only $5 a month (regular Uber fares apply), and you can cancel anytime.
