Stuttgart fährt mit

"Stuttgart fährt mit" is a carpooling application, explicitly for the commute to work and back. Simply register with your company location. If your company does not yet participate, please get in touch via the contact form. In order for you to register, your company has to sign a partner contract with us. The use of the application is free for you as a user.

If you would like to drive your own car, you can create an offer. To ride with someone else, you create a request. As a passenger, you can find and request drivers, but not vice versa. As soon as the driver has accepted the request, your trip is confirmed and you can chat with each other conveniently via the RideBee app, e.g. to discuss the exact departure time and meeting point.

No. "Stuttgart fährt mit" is deliberately designed so that for each ride you can meet the partner who is going in the same direction at the right time.

No. "Stuttgart fährt mit" works on a peer-to-peer basis. Since we do not employ any drivers, we cannot guarantee that you will find a match. However, this also implies that there is no territorial restriction on entering rides. From experience, we recommend that you organise your trip 12 to 48 hours in advance.

Yes, all passengers are insured against damage to property and personal injury up to 2.5 million euros via the driver's motor vehicle liability insurance. Hence, an additional passenger insurance is not necessary. The liability of the employers' liability insurance association (Berufsgenossenschaft) on the way to work also applies to a carpool - and also on the detour when picking up a passenger. The insurance company does not have to be informed about the fact that you will be carpooling regularly from now on.

In the case of the commuting allowance, a total of only €4,500 per year can be deducted for all days on which one participates free of charge as a passenger. If the users follow the proposed cost compensation of RideBee, this limit does not apply. A pecuniary advantage, as for example with a company car, does not exist. The person driving can apply the commuting allowance without restriction. However, earnings generated from a carpool are other income (§ 22 No. 3 EStG). They are taxable if they amount to 256 euros or more per year (= exemption limit).

If you are already part of a carpool, you can use "Stuttgart fährt mit" to find more passengers to further reduce costs or when your original partner is on vacation. In addition, "Stuttgart fährt mit" offers functionalities that simplify the daily organization of your carpool: The group chat and calendar are already implemented, we are currently working on other features.

No. To make it easier for you to plan and create trips, you can also setup recurring trips and match on multiple days at once.

By default, we calculate the optimal route to pick up each passenger at home and the corresponding pick-up times. The desired arrival or departure time of the driver is always the agreed timing. If he does not want to drive a detour, the driver can also define fixed waypoints at which the passengers can get on.

If you do not find the driver you are looking for directly, you will receive a notification by email and push notification as soon as we have a suitable option for you. The same applies when a request is confirmed or you receive a message.
