SmartCommute.ca App
The new Smart Commute app is now available to download on your smartphone as SmartCommute.ca in the Apple App Store
(iOS) and Google Play Store (Android).
SmartCommute.ca is more than just a carpool matching forum – it is a true travel options portal where users can
instantly find information on various options to get from A to B. Included in your search results are not only
carpool partner matches but options for vanpools, bike, walking and transit buddy matching. In addition to being
able to explore your travel options, can also log trips and receive rewards.
SmartCommute.ca offers users the ability to find one-off single trip carpool matches or a regular carpool partner.
The app’s sophisticated matching feature will find passengers close to a driver’s origin, destination
and drive route, according to schedule and personal preferences.
Passengers looking to join a carpool will see results based on proximity to the origin, destination, travel route and
personal preferences. Match results are shown in both tabular and in mapped form, based on the distance to you, and
best matching your commute preferences. Users also have the ability to filter matches based on driving preference,
male/female preference, distance from origin, route, or destination, or organization.
Payment transfer for carpool trips is facilitated directly through the system using suggested government mileage
rates.
