  About Ridester  
     
 

Ridester’s mission is to provide the most affordable and effective intercity travel option in America by leveraging the power of community. Austin entrepreneur Jake Boshernitzan first conceived the Ridester idea while a college student at the University of Texas. He noticed that the campus’ and online ride boards were so disorganized and flakey that most people had given up on them. They lacked usability and finding people going the same way at the same time seemed only marginally more likely than finding a real Rolex at the flea market.

 
  The Ridester Advantage:  
 

 

1. Cost-effective – The cost of traveling via Ridester is lower than by Greyhound, Amtrak, or driving alone.
2. Dependable – Ridester reinforces the community with feedback-ratings and pre-trip payment verification.
3. Flexible – Find travelers who accommodate you whether you’re traveling with a pit-bull or like to smoke.
4. Smart - Route processing technology associates nearby towns and zip codes to do the searching for you.
5. Easy – Save your ride request or offer, and we’ll let you know of new matches by text-message or email.
6. Fun – Meet new people and make new friends. After all, life is a journey. Share it!
