About Empower
Empower is a rideshare app where drivers set their own rates and keep 100% of the fare, because Empower takes no commission. Instead, drivers pay a subscription fee after a 30-day free trial; the fee is not published on the driver page. New drivers in some markets get an earnings guarantee for completing a set number of trial rides, such as $1,000 for 80 rides in Atlanta, Houston and Dallas-Fort Worth or $2,000 for 160 rides in the DC Metro. Regulators in New York City and Washington, DC have disputed whether Empower operates legally, so check your local rules first.
Who can apply
Empower does not list formal driver requirements on its driver page; you sign up in the Empower driver app. Markets include the DC Metro, Baltimore, New York, South Florida, Atlanta, Dallas-Fort Worth, Houston, the Piedmont Triad, Charlotte and the Research Triangle. Driver referrals earn a free month of subscription or up to $175 in cash, depending on the market.
