What is Empower?
Empower is a rideshare platform that positions itself as an alternative to traditional ride-hailing apps by giving drivers more control over how they operate. Depending on the market, drivers may be able to keep more of their fares, manage preferences, and use a membership-style model rather than a standard commission structure. Riders request trips through the app, while drivers provide passenger transportation in supported cities. Availability, insurance requirements, and operating rules can vary by location, so drivers should review the platform requirements and local regulations before relying on it for income.
Qualifications
Drivers typically need a valid driver license, eligible vehicle, smartphone, insurance, and the ability to pass onboarding, background, and driving-history checks. Requirements may vary by city and local regulations. Drivers should confirm whether the platform is active and compliant in their market before relying on it for income.
