Why we let you name your price

On most apps, an algorithm decides what your trip costs and you take it or leave it. We never liked that. So we built Teriya around a different idea: the price is a conversation, and you should have a seat at the table.

A price set for you is a price you did not agree to

When a screen quotes a number you cannot move, the deal is already done before you have said a word. It can feel fair on a quiet afternoon and unfair in the rain — and you have no say either way.

We wanted something more human: a way for you and the driver to actually meet on a price, the way people in a market have always done.

Three ways to settle a fare

On Teriya, you choose how a trip is priced. Take the fixed fare if you want certainty and speed. Name your own price and let nearby drivers respond if you would rather make an offer. Or agree it in cash, person to person.

None of these is the 'real' price hiding behind the others. They are simply different ways to reach one both sides accept.

Why this is fairer for drivers too

Naming your price is not about paying as little as possible — it is about transparency. A driver sees your offer and decides freely whether it is worth their time, their fuel, the distance.

No one is forced into a trip that does not work for them. When both sides say yes on purpose, the ride starts on better footing.

The price is yours to choose

Putting the price back in your hands is the whole point of Teriya. It is not a feature we bolted on; it is the belief the app is built around.

Download Teriya, set your price your way, and see how different a ride feels when you helped decide what it costs.

Still curious? See it for yourself.

The best way to understand Teriya is to take a trip with us. Get the app and choose your price.
