OG Rides

New Zealand's long-distance carpooling platform. Share rides and split costs.

Welcome to OG Rides — New Zealand’s peer-to-peer carpooling platform.

Got empty seats on a road trip? Or looking for an affordable, eco-friendly way to travel between cities? OG Rides connects long-distance drivers with riders heading in the same direction to share the journey and split the costs.

Whether you're commuting across regions, heading out for the weekend, or exploring a new corner of Aotearoa, OG Rides makes travel social, affordable, and sustainable.

Why OG Rides?

More for Less: Ride more but spend less. Drivers post their intended trips, and riders chip in for their fair share of fuel and travel costs. It’s a win-win that keeps long-distance travel affordable for everyone.

Trust by Choice: You can book your seat or accept passengers with total peace of mind with your choice of secure payment integration or direct cash transactions.

The Greener Way: Fewer empty seats mean fewer cars on Kiwi roads. Carpooling is one of the easiest ways to cut down transport emissions and travel greener.

How it works for Riders?

Search and find a driver heading your way and request a seat. Connect with your driver to finalise the details. Meet at the designated spot, split the costs, and enjoy the journey!

How it works for Drivers?

Post your upcoming trip in seconds. Choose your available seats and a fair cost-share price per seat. Review passenger requests, accept your riders, and offset your fuel costs.
