How does it work?
EZ Ryde4Life is a membership-based program. Currently, the program is available to New Jersey Residents only.  Riders fill out a registration form and establish a transportation account using a credit or debit card. Once that’s setup, rides can be scheduled in real time. It’s as easy to register, reserve, and ride.

All fees and charges are collected in advance from your credit/debit card by charging $50 to fund your account; fees will be deducted from the available balance, and additional money will be debited from your card when the account balance drops to $25.

You will receive a monthly statement of all rides and their cost.
