BlaBlaCar is the world's largest long-distance ridesharing community.[1] Conceived in December 2003 by Frédéric Mazzella,[2] and founded in 2006,[3] BlaBlaCar connects drivers and passengers willing to travel together between cities and share the cost of the journey. BlaBlaCar has more than 25 million members across 22 countries.[4][5][6][7]
Members must register and create a personal online profile, which includes ratings and reviews by other members, social network verification, and rate of response.[8][9] "Profiles of members show how much experience they have of the service, meaning those with more – known as "ambassadors" – attract more ride shares and, importantly, each user's profile includes a "BlaBla" measurement, which indicates how much they are willing to chat during a trip".[2]
As of April 2015, the company had raised USD$100 million from blue-chip venture-capital firms including ISAI, Index and Accel, plus earlier rounds of €1.2 million from ISAI and €600,000 from founders, friends, and family.[10]
On September 16 2015, BlaBlaCar announced it had raised another US $200 million "primarily from US investors" in a round that valued the company at USD$1.6 billion.[11]
The service is accessible via the web, mobile and also via apps for iOS and Android.
