How to Use the Ridematching Feature 

Traffix offers a user-friendly mobile app and website that streamlines the process of finding rideshare partners. Here’s a systematic approach: 

1. Registration

Begin by signing up for an account with TRAFFIX, which you can easily do through the mobile app or the website. 

2. Profile Configuration 

Complete your profile with specific commuting preferences, including your home and work addresses, preferred ride times and any particular preferences you may have, such as gender preferences or carpool group size. 

3. Ride Search

Once your profile is set up, you can initiate the search for rideshare matches. Simply input your starting point and destination, and find your ridematch! 

4. Connecting with Matches

Reach out to your matches via the app/website to determine the best commute mode, schedule, etc.  

5. Carpooling

Once you’ve successfully connected with a suitable match, you are ready to carpool. Enjoy the financial benefits of shared rides and contribute to a more sustainable environment. 

The Exciting Rewards Component

TRAFFIX goes the extra mile to incentivize Commuting Differently with its exceptional rewards program. Here’s a closer look at how it operates: 

1. Earning Points 

Whenever you don’t ride alone, you accumulate reward points – that includes carpool, vanpool, bike, walk, transit, and even telework. Every trip counts! If you make daily trips, you can make them reoccurring.  

2. Redemption of Rewards

These points can be redeemed for attractive rewards, including restaurant coupons, retailer discounts, and tickets to local shows and attractions. It’s a system that allows you to save money on your commute while enjoying additional perks. 

3. Monthly Challenges

Points can also be used to enter monthly raffles for grand prizes like gift cards! 

The Guaranteed Ride Home Program

In addition to Ridematching and Rewards, TRAFFIX, in partnership with the Department of Rail and Public Transportation, offers the Guaranteed Ride Home program. This program ensures you have a reliable transportation solution in case of unexpected emergencies or late workdays.
