At Ridefer, we believe access to a car should be simple, affordable, and community-driven.
We’re redefining how people move in cities by making car ownership and access smarter, more flexible, and truly collaborative. Whether you’re looking to earn from your idle vehicle or need a ride across town, Ridefer empowers everyday people to help each other move better.
Who We Are
Founded by Junior L. Calixte, Ridefer was born from a simple observation: traditional car rentals are expensive, inconvenient, and not built for today’s on-demand lifestyle.
As a New Yorker with a deep understanding of urban transportation challenges, Junior set out to build a solution that bridges the gap between accessibility and ownership in dense metro areas.
Ridefer isn’t just a tech company — it’s a mobility movement. We’re a locally-rooted startup in NYC, designed for the very people who live, work, hustle, and explore the city every day. Our peer-to-peer car-sharing model gives users flexibility, freedom, and trust — by turning unused cars into valuable, shared resources.
What We Stand For
Urban Mobility, Reimagined
We believe city life deserves smarter transportation options. Ridefer reduces the dependency on car ownership while still offering access when and where it’s needed.
Economic Empowerment
By helping car owners earn passive income — +$875/month — we’re giving everyday people a new opportunity to benefit from the sharing economy.
Sustainability with Purpose
Car-sharing leads to fewer cars on the road, less congestion, and lower emissions. Ridefer is committed to promoting more efficient transportation models that contribute to cleaner, greener cities.
Our Vision for the Future
Ridefer is just getting started. Over the next few years, we aim to:
Expand into EV-sharing:
Encouraging sustainable mobility by building a strong presence of electric vehicles on our platform.
Enable B2B solutions:
Partner with universities, corporate fleets, and delivery services for flexible vehicle access.
Scale nationwide:
After establishing our roots in NYC, NJ, and CT, we plan to expand to other major U.S. metro areas where urban car access is limited but demand is growing.
Together, we’re building more than a car-sharing platform — we’re creating a trusted community of drivers and hosts ready to shape the future of transportation.
Let’s drive the future, together.
We’re currently seeking mission-aligned investors to join our journey. If that sounds like you, [reach out here].
