$2000 LYFT DRIVER BONUS [Expired]

Lyft is back with another big driver bonus: $2,000 for new Lyft drivers in San Diego! After the recent $5,000 bonus, this should not come as a big surprise.

New drivers will need to complete 500 rides in 60 days. Lyft has been experimenting with bigger bonuses with bigger ride requirements – probably in the hopes that drivers won't just collect the bonus then stop driving.

LINKS TO SIGN UP

• $2,000 driver bonus in San Diego  [EXPIRED]
• Not in Los Angeles? see bonuses in other cities (up to $500)
• Free $50 Ride Credit – New Users

THE CATCH?

New drivers have to do 500 rides in 60 days. Of course 500 rides may sound like a lot, but if you are willing to stay with Lyft, it is doable and comes with a nice reward of $2,000! A full time driver should be able to manage ~63 rides per week for 8 weeks. Part time will likely be a challenge.

IS THIS REAL?

Lyft offered a whopping $5,000 new driver bonus, the largest ever, not long ago. This $2,000 bonus comes as no surprise. The ride-hailing app keeps changing bonuses depending on where demand is the greatest. That big demand seems to stay in California – before it was Los Angeles, now it is San Diego.

Keep in mind that Lyft can and does change their offers frequently!

OTHER CITIES

Bonus offers change frequently. See my other post for the updated list of bonuses in other cities. The other biggest offers are currently $500 bonus in Las Vegas, Los Angeles, New York City, Orange County, and Silicon Valley.
