About Roam Marketplace
The Roam™ app will change the way we make our frequent, everyday trips – together. By participating, you’ll save money, save time, and help save our climate – all while strengthening your community.
Now in our first stage, the Roam™ app will pay you 20¢ per mile to drive and map your trips. No passengers needed. You’ll be rewarded just for mapping trips to the places you already go. You’ll save money and help shape the world’s first community-driven, true ridesharing network.
Download the Roam™ app now to start mapping your trips and getting paid. You’ll be part of a growing movement to transform how the world moves, one trip at a time.
MAP YOUR TRIPS
Start the app, drive to work, school, the gym, or grocery store. Your route will be recorded safely in the background. Each mile will add 20¢ to your app wallet.
GET PAID
You’ll be paid 20¢ per mile for eligible trips that begin in our active service area. (For all other trips, you’ll store up value in your app wallet reserve, which will unlock when each new service area opens.)
LEVEL UP
Get paid when you reach each new level through trip frequency, mileage milestones, and by reaching small goal. Beat your friend to level 10 with easy achievements like adding your profile picture or inviting a friend.
INVITE & EARN MORE
When you share your QR Code with people directly around you, you’ll earn up to $100 when that person starts to drive using the Roam™ app. A new friend at the dog park, someone in line at the grocery store, or your next door neighbor can all be invited with a QR code inside the app.
MAKE A DIFFERENCE
Every trip you map will help us to get closer to a world with lower carbon emissions and affordable daily trips for everyone, including rides as low as 25¢ per mile. And while you’re saving money mapping trips, you’ll be making the climate a little cleaner.
STRENGTHEN YOUR COMMUNITY
As the Roam™ app grows to include more members who can choose to drive or ride with each other, they’ll also become stronger with each new connection they make in their community. (A community is anywhere you spend time frequently, so you might share a ride with someone you already know.)
WHERE IS IT AVAILABLE?
You can use it anywhere, but our current active service area includes the San Francisco Bay Area cities of Berkeley, Oakland, Alameda, Albany, and Piedmont. But this is just the beginning; we'll open more places to community-driven true ridesharing, to reduce everyone’s cost to 25¢ per mile and cut the carbon footprint of each trip by 50% or more.
HOW IS IT SAFER?
Community-driven and built on trust, our members have a shared purpose. Each member will be triple verified to ensure the highest standard of safety. Our innovative technology is powered by intelligent route detection, real-time data, and the ability to share ride offers and requests between a growing network of people in shared communities.
YOUR PRIVACY MATTERS
Protecting your privacy is built into our design and values from day one. You’re in control. You choose when to map a trip and whether to upload it. We’ll never share your location data with anyone, ever. Information you choose to share on your profile will only be visible to other members if you want it to be.
HOW DOES MAPPING HELP?
By mapping your everyday trips, we can build a smarter, better, and cleaner way to make all of our daily trips. By first establishing overlapping routes, we'll then see opportunities for shared rides to offer to our members. Every trip you take helps build the foundation for our sustainable mobility network.
HOW MUCH WILL I SAVE?
Any member who chooses to drive on a trip will get paid 20¢ per occupied seat, including their own – and they’ll never have to go out of their way. Members who choose to ride on trips will pay just 25¢ per mile, which is about 25% of what it costs to drive their own car, or 90% less than the cost of many on-demand car services.

Save money and make a difference
The Roam app is great because it’s focused on reducing the cost of getting a ride for everyone. At the same time, it’s building a completely different kind of very affordable, community-driven ridesharing. The Roam app will do this by connecting people in the same communities, who are going the same direction, instead of paying for a hired car and driver — at 1/10th of the cost. Joining the Roam community now will help to build a true ridesharing platform that reduces the carbon footprint of every shared ride by at least 2X or more compared to driving alone. This will help to save our climate at the same time that it transforms the cost of getting a ride. Right now, new members can get paid to drive and map their trips in the first active service area. Those driving outside that area will get funds put into their “reserve” balance when they drive in a “future” service area. Eventually, the Roam app will reduce the cost of a ride to 25¢ per mile for everyone, compared to high cost of $2-3 per mile on other ridesharing apps. For Roam members who choose to drive, they will never go out of their way. They’ll only go to the places they are already going, but they will have the option to take a rider with them and be paid for each occupied seat in their car, including their own.
