A new ride-hailing platform has arrived. It is called Cruz.

The platform is now live with structured ride categories, transparent pricing, and an automatic 10% discount for every new user. Cruz also offers executive rentals in Benin, Warri, Asaba, Abuja, Lagos, and Port Harcourt.

For Everyone, Not Just One Type of Rider

Whether you are a student heading to class, a worker going to the office, or a government official attending a meeting, you deserve a ride you can trust.

Existing platforms often treat different riders the same way. Cruz is doing the opposite.

“Your trip matters. Your time matters. You should not have to guess what you are booking.”

For Riders: 10% Off and Clear Categories

Every new user gets 10% off their first ride. No code required. Ride categories are simple:

Category Who It Is For
Essential Students, daily commuters, budget-conscious riders
Premium Workers, professionals, regular trips with comfort
Executive Government officials, business travel, special occasions

Beyond the discount, riders can earn referral rewards by inviting others. The more you share, the more you earn.

Real-time tracking and a clean booking interface complete the experience.

Executive Rentals in Six Cities

For riders who need more than a standard trip, Cruz offers executive rentals in Benin, Warri, Asaba, Abuja, Lagos, and Port Harcourt.

These are premium vehicles for airport transfers, business meetings, corporate events, and special occasions. Book by the hour or by the trip.

For Drivers: Choose How You Earn. Cruz is taking a different approach with drivers. Drivers can choose between:

  • Commission-based model: Flexible and low-risk
  • Weekly subscription: A flat fee that lets drivers keep more of their earnings

The second option is rare in Nigeria. Most platforms take a percentage of every fare. Cruz gives drivers a choice.

There are also referral bonuses for bringing new drivers onto the platform. “When drivers win, riders win. Better incentives mean better availability.”

The Bottom Line

Cruz enters competitive markets. But competitive does not mean saturated.

Students, workers, and government officials now have a new option. One that offers 10% off, clear ride categories, executive rentals, and a driver model built for fairness.

Download Cruz today.
