Hey Calgary, start earning in your city.
Whether you’re driving to pay bills, take control of your schedule, or meet interesting people, Lyft can help you get there. The Lyft Driver app matches you with local passengers, and lets you earn when you want. When the ride’s over, passengers pay in the app, and tips are always 100% yours.
High Demand
Why drive with Lyft in Calgary?
Location is everything. From commuter stops downtown to weekend brunch spots in Beltline, we’ll help you find the areas where you’ll earn the most, every day of the week.
Smooth Rides
Flames games and events at the Saddledome bring the biggest crowds. At select venues, we’ll direct you to the main door or arena entrance, so pickups and drop-offs are always convenient.
Airport Earnings
Lyft is available at YYC. The app helps you navigate local airports, and shows you where to pick up, where to drop off, and where to wait for requests.
