A new ride-hailing app has arrived in the Grand Strand and aims to save money for users.

The new ride-hailing application known as "Wridz" has recently become available in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, intending to provide greater earnings for drivers and more affordable fares for passengers. Regional owner Ed Motley, who has seven years of experience in the ride-hailing industry with Uber and Lyft, stated that Wridz is distinct from its rivals in that it enables drivers to keep the total amount of each fare they earn. Motley is confident that the app will bring about a paradigm shift in the ride-hailing sector by reducing the amount of money spent by passengers and increasing the amount of money earned by drivers.

Myrtle Beach is the most recent city to join Wridz, following in the footsteps of Wridz's successful launches in Columbia and Charleston. The app guarantees that its costs will never increase, and its users have noted that its fares are far lower than those of its rivals. Wridz additionally guarantees safety protocols, such as screening drivers with a background check and a drug test. The driver and the passenger are given a calling card with a color and number combination corresponding to the driver's QR code to identify one another easily. Drivers are pleased with the safety measures implemented by the application. Richard M., a Wridz driver, stated, "they do the continuous background checks, and the fact that the drivers are drug screened, I think is a big plus." 

Another Wridz driver, Joseph S., said, "As for a driver, you get to enjoy working for a company that pays you a fair wage that's been a long time coming." Since its debut in Myrtle Beach two weeks ago, the app has attracted dozens of local drivers. Wridz guarantees stable pricing, in contrast to its rivals whose rates are known to be subject to significant swings. Downloading the Wridz app from either the Google Play Store for Android devices or the App Store for iPhone devices allows passengers and drivers to gain access to additional details on Wridz. 

Motley is confident that Wridz will revolutionize the market by enhancing the quality of life for drivers through lower operating costs and by lowering the prices paid by customers. He made the following statement: "It's our time, it's our money, it's our gas, and it's our wear and tear on the cars, but right now the other ride-share companies are kind of pinching us really bad." Through using Wridz, drivers can, at last, receive what they are due, while customers take advantage of rides that are both reliable and economical.
