Is It Worth It? — Driver Account Terms

These are the terms for your driver account. Written plain on purpose. Back to sign-up · Back to my account

1. What this account is

This is your driver account for Is It Worth It? Think of it as your back office — the place where your referral code lives, where you see the drivers you brought in, where your referral credit adds up, where your subscription is handled, and where any tax forms from us will show up. It is not the app itself. The app runs on your phone or tablet in your car. This account runs here, on the website. You do not pay anything to open this account. Paying (billing) does not start until the app launches on January 1, 2027.

2. What the app does — and what it never does

When a ride offer pops up in Uber or Lyft — or any app we read in the future — the app reads the numbers on that offer — the pay, the miles, the time — the same way you would read them with your eyes. Then it does the math fast and tells you if the offer looks good or bad by your own rules. Here is what it never does:

• It never taps anything. It never presses Accept for you. It never presses anything at all. You press every button yourself, every time.
• It never signs into your Uber or Lyft account — or any app we read in the future — and it never changes anything inside those apps.
• Because it only reads and never touches, it will not get you deactivated. Apps that tap and accept for you are the ones that break Uber's and Lyft's rules. This is not one of those apps. You stay in control. We will never ask for your Uber or Lyft password — or the password of any app we read in the future. Not in the app. Not in this account. Not in an email. If anything ever asks you for that password and says it is us, it is not us — do not type it, and tell support.

3. Your account — the basic rules

• One account per driver. Your account is for you.
• Keep your email address up to date. If we need to tell you something important about your account, email is how we do it.
• Your password is yours. Do not share it. If you think somebody else might know it, change it right away (in Account settings) or contact support.
• Be straight with us and we will be straight with you. If an account is used to cheat — fake sign-ups, fake referrals, trying to trick the credit system — we can close that account. Real drivers doing real driving have nothing to worry about here.

4. Your referral code and your referral credit

When you open your account, you get your own referral code — a short code with your name in it, like TREX-001. That code belongs to you forever. It never changes, and we will never give it to another driver, because you might print it on cards. When another driver opens an account and types in your code, that driver is counted as yours — for good. When a driver of yours pays for a subscription, you earn credit. The amount is about 1% of what they pay. Simple Theoretical Example: if your driver pays $7 for one month, about 7 cents goes into your credit. That sounds small, and for one driver it is. But it never stops: every driver you brought in, every month they stay subscribed, adds a little more. Drivers who bring in a lot of drivers watch it turn into real money off their own bill. How the credit works:

• First, it pays toward your own subscription. If you have enough credit, your bill can drop — even to zero for that month.
• Whatever credit you do not use rolls over to the next month. It does not disappear at the end of the month.
• There is one limit on the rollover: the most subscription credit you can carry into a new month is enough to pay for one full month of your subscription at your price. The credit is there to pay your bill, not to pile up forever.
• Credit is not cash. You cannot cash it out, and you cannot give it to another driver. It only takes money off your own Is It Worth It? bill.

Card credit — where the extra goes

Credit above that rollover cap is not lost. It becomes a second kind of credit called card credit, kept on its own line in your account. Card credit helps you pay for the company cards (section 8), like this:

• Order the approved cards through the order link in your account, and pay the card store the normal price, the same as everybody.
• Put the order number from that purchase into your account.
• We take your card credit off your next subscription bill (or bills), up to what you paid for the cards. Simple Theoretical Example: your subscription credit hits the cap and $4 spills into card credit. You order a pack of cards for $18 through our link and enter the order number. Your next subscription bill is $4 smaller. The rules for card credit: it only ever comes from credit that spilled over the cap — you cannot buy it or add to it any other way. It only counts for cards ordered through our link. And it is still credit, not cash: it cannot be cashed out, and it ends if your account closes.

5. What it costs, and your locked price

The app launches January 1, 2027. An account created before July 11, 2027 pays nothing from launch until July 11, 2027. If you subscribe during the first year (any time in 2027), you get early pricing: $7 a month, or $79.99 for a whole year. Here is the important part: that price is locked for you for as long as your subscription stays turned on. Simple Theoretical Example: say it is 2029 and new drivers are paying the regular price. You still pay $7. Your price does not go up. Ever. As long as your subscription stays active. After the first year, new drivers pay the regular price: $15.99 a month, or $159.99 a year. What if your card does not go through one month? That happens to everybody. Here is exactly what happens:

• We tell you (in the app and by email) that the payment did not work.
• You get 10 days to fix it — a new card, a fixed card, whatever it takes.
• Fix it inside those 10 days and nothing changes. Same price, same lock.
• If the 10 days run out, or if you cancel on purpose, the subscription ends — and the locked early price ends with it. If you come back later, you come back at the regular price, the same as a brand-new driver.
• One thing we do hold for you: if you come back within 10 days after the subscription ended, your referral credit and card credit are still there waiting for you. You pay the regular price, but your credit is yours and you keep it.
• Wait longer than those extra 10 days and the credit is gone, the same as if the account had closed.
• And if something happened that was not in your control — talk to us. Email us and tell us what happened. We decide those one at a time, and we are willing to work with you as long as you communicate with us.

6. Email — only what you check counts

Some emails are part of running your account: a receipt for a payment, help getting back in when you forget your password, a note that a tax form is ready. Those come with having an account. Everything else is your choice, and it works by checkboxes:

• "Email me product news and launch updates."
• "Email me when a driver joins with my referral code." If a box is checked, we send that kind of email. If it is not checked, we do not send it. Unchecked means not sent — no tricks. You can change your checks any time in Account settings, and the change sticks right away.

7. What we keep about you — and what other drivers see

We only keep what we need to run your account: your name, your email, your home city and state, your referral code, the list of drivers who signed up with your code, your email checkboxes, and whether your subscription is paid up. Other drivers do not see your private information. A driver you recruited sees your first name, your city, your status, and the date you joined — that is all. You see the same four things about your recruits. Nobody sees anybody's email, last name, or payment details. We do not sell your personal information. You are part of our team — your information is not for sale. One more thing about privacy — yours and the riders'. The app blocks screenshots and screen recording of its own screens by default. You can turn that protection off in the app (to record a demo video, for example). If you do, what you capture is your responsibility. Never capture or share a rider's personal information — their name, their address, their photo. Misusing it can cost you your Uber and Lyft accounts, and it ends your account with us too.

8. Business or Handout Cards

We have official Is It Worth It? cards that drivers can order and hand out. Those are the only cards you may use. A different card — a different design, different words, or cards printed somewhere else — has to be approved by the company in writing before you order it or hand it out. Reason: every claim printed on the approved cards is a claim we stand behind. If it is not on an approved card, do not say it on one.

9. Tax forms

If this company ever pays you money — a Simple Theoretical Example: a founder's pay for their territory — the law says we may have to send you a tax form (called a 1099) that says how much we paid you. Those forms show up here, in Tax Documents. Your driving money is different. The tax forms for your Uber and Lyft earnings come from Uber and Lyft, not from us. Tax forms are mailed on paper, unless you agree in your account to get them on the computer instead. If you agree, we email you when a form is ready — and that email never carries your tax numbers in it. The form itself stays inside your account.

10. Cash tips

Cash tips are never tracked. Ever. What riders hand you in cash is your business.

11. Verdicts are advice, not a promise

The app's verdicts are fast math on the numbers printed on the offer card — dollars per mile, dollars per hour, against the rules you set. They are there to help you decide quickly. They are not a promise that you will make a certain amount of money. Every accept and every decline is your call, and it always stays your call.

12. If these terms ever change

If we change these terms, we will show you the change in your account and email you before the change applies to you. No surprise changes, ever. If you keep using your account after a change starts, that means you accept the change.

13. Closing your account

You can close your account any time — just contact support. Closing means:

• Your subscription runs to the end of the time you already paid for, then stops.
• Any credit still in the account goes away — subscription credit and card credit both (credit is not cash — section 4).
• Your referral code is retired and never given to anyone else.

Addendum — Launch pricing, free window & platform rollout (decided by T-Rex, Oct 24, 2026)

This addendum is part of these terms. The canonical stitch lives in launch-pricing-rollout-policy.md; where an older section and this addendum conflict, this addendum governs.

• Free window (Uber, Lyft, Uber Eats): an account created before July 11, 2027 pays nothing from launch until July 11, 2027. Billing then begins at the early price below.
• Early (introductory) price: $7/month or $79.99/year, locked for life while the subscription stays active. Available to (a) any account created in 2027, and (b) any account created before the launch day of a platform that launches later — even if that launch day falls in 2028 or after.
• Full price: $15.99/month or $159.99/year for new accounts from January 1, 2028, and for any account created after its platform is already live.
• Waiting list (platform not live yet): no charge of any kind until that platform's section is ready and working — however long that takes. At that platform's launch the driver is notified and receives 30 days free before billing starts at their locked price.
• Collectors: while waiting, a driver may choose (it is never required) to let the app save ("stash") their platform's offer cards so the team can build that platform's reader. Collecting is off unless the driver turns it on; the driver can stop at any time; stashed cards are offer cards only — no rider personal information is taken from them. Toolbox features (mileage, expenses, earnings, tax records, Medicaid Work Proof) are free during the wait whether or not the driver collects.
• Credits: referral credit and card credit accrue only on paid months; free periods earn no credit (see §4).
• Founders: founder seats open market by market at 100 active driver accounts in a named metro and are offered first to drivers from that market who have been collecting and helping growth. A founder's 10% of territory subscriptions is paid on subscriptions once billing is running in that territory.
