Drivers keep 100%.Passengers pay the real price.
DirectTransfer connects drivers and passengers directly. Every fare is settled peer-to-peer — TWINT, card or cash — with a flat monthly subscription instead of a per-ride cut.
Same ride. Different math.
Ride-hailing platforms typically keep 20–35% of every fare before the driver sees a franc. DirectTransfer keeps 0% of the fare — the platform is funded by a flat monthly subscription, not by a cut of your ride. Below, the same CHF 50 fare, two different outcomes.
- Commission of 20–35% deducted automatically from every ride.
- On a typical CHF 50 fare, the platform can retain up to CHF 15.
- The driver is left with roughly CHF 35 of CHF 50.
- The passenger's fare subsidises the platform's cut, not just the ride.
- 0% commission* on every ride, always.
- The platform takes CHF 0 from the fare — CHF 0.
- The driver keeps CHF 50 of CHF 50, settled directly, P2P.
- The passenger pays the real, negotiated price — nothing added for the platform.
*0% commission refers to the ride fare only. DirectTransfer is funded by a driver subscription: free for the first 30 days, then CHF 39.95/month, then CHF 79.90/month — never a percentage of any fare.
We never touch your fare.
Every ride is settled directly between passenger and driver — via TWINT, SumUp card terminal, cash, or the driver's own card reader. DirectTransfer never processes, holds or routes ride payments. That is not a convenience feature — it is why SwissRide GmbH operates as a pure SaaS matchmaking platform, not a financial intermediary, and does not require a FINMA payment-intermediation licence.
Your vehicle. Your price. Your income.
You drive
Set your own rate inside a suggested range and take part in a transparent auction. You choose which rides make sense for you — the platform never assigns a fixed schedule or quota.
You earn
Receive 100% of the fare directly, TWINT, cash or card, the moment the ride ends. No weekly payout delay, because DirectTransfer never holds your money to begin with.
You keep
100% of every fare stays with you. The platform is funded by a flat subscription instead — free for the first 30 days, then CHF 39.95/month, then CHF 79.90/month. No percentage, ever.
A Swiss street. A driver who keeps what they earn.
Request
The passenger requests a ride and picks a category — Basic, Executive or Cargo.
Category
Nearby drivers in that category see the request and can respond.
Offer
Drivers submit an offer; the passenger can also propose their own price. Whoever agrees, agrees — no forced match.
Payment
Ride happens, payment settles directly between passenger and driver — TWINT, cash or card. DirectTransfer never touches it.
Lower prices
With no platform commission built into the fare — drivers fund the platform through a flat monthly subscription instead (free for the first 30 days, then CHF 39.95/month, then CHF 79.90/month) — prices stay closer to what the ride actually costs.
A driver who's actually paid
Drivers who keep their full fare tend to be more invested in the ride — their vehicle, their time, their reputation.
Direct payment, full transparency
Pay the driver directly via TWINT, cash or card. You always know exactly where your money goes.
