“Our partnership with Curb will create a better experience for Lyft riders – by adding drivers on Curb to the platform, wait times will shrink and riders will get to where they are going faster,” said Jeremy Bird, EVP of Driver Experience at Lyft. "We are also now welcoming a new community of drivers from the Curb platform who we look forward to serving alongside the amazing community of drivers already on the Lyft platform.”
Both Lyft riders and drivers using Curb will continue to enjoy the seamless, familiar experience they expect, with the integration ensuring that nearly all app features remain consistent, even when taking a licensed taxi. The marketplaces are combined automatically in enabled markets, requiring no additional setup and keeping the ride experience aligned across platforms.
“We believe that licensed taxis should be a central part of the modern ride-hailing experience,” said Dorel Tamam, Vice President, Mobile Business Unit at Curb. “By adding more partners within the Curb Flow network, including Lyft, we’re creating additional potential for drivers to earn while helping riders access reliable, professional transportation through the apps they already trust.”
Curb Flow unifies ride requests from app bookings, fleet dispatches, and street hails into a single streamlined platform, helping drivers connect with passengers faster and improving access to licensed taxis. With Lyft now integrated, riders can receive a taxi directly in the Lyft app, while drivers receive additional trip offers through their existing in-vehicle systems.
All rides maintain Lyft and Curb’s commitment to upfront pricing, providing riders with clear, predictable fares and drivers with full transparency. And through close collaboration and Lyft's high service and quality standards, riders taking a taxi deployed through this partnership can expect the same great experience they know and love on Lyft.
