inDrive, a global mobility and delivery platform and the world’s second-most-downloaded ride-hailing app, today announced a strategic partnership with GoCab, a high-growth mobility fintech, to expand access to cars for drivers operating on its platform. Launching initially in Morocco and Chile, with possible expansion to other international markets, the collaboration aims to make gig economy work more accessible across these fast-growing markets.
Under the partnership, GoCab will initially provide access to at least 1,000 vehicles through flexible leasing and rental options, with plans to scale to 4,000 vehicles across the two markets. Participating drivers will be connected to the inDrive platform, giving them access to a large and active rider base and enabling them to start earning quickly.
Morocco has emerged as one of inDrive’s fastest-growing markets, with increasing demand for mobility services and growing interest in flexible earning opportunities. Access to affordable vehicles remains one of the key challenges preventing many aspiring drivers from joining the platform.
By reducing the upfront cost of vehicle ownership, the partnership aims to expand access to flexible work opportunities and support more people in building sustainable income streams through inDrive.
Arsen Tomsky, Founder and CEO at inDrive, commented:
“In many fast-growing markets, talent and demand are not the challenge, but access is. This partnership is about breaking down that barrier and creating a more inclusive model for mobility, where more people can participate and benefit. By working with GoCab, we are helping to expand access to vehicles and build a more balanced and accessible ecosystem for both drivers and passengers. This is a practical step toward our broader mission of challenging injustice and opening up economic opportunities at scale.”
Azamat Sultan, Co-founder and CEO at GoCab, added:
“Access to a vehicle is the single biggest barrier to opportunity in many emerging markets. Through our drive-to-own model and ethical financing approach, we enable drivers not only to generate daily income, but to progressively build real asset ownership over time. This partnership with inDrive combines strong platform demand with structured, responsible financing — creating an ecosystem where drivers can access income-generating opportunities while investing in their future. Together, we are turning access into ownership, and income into lasting impact.”
As part of GoCab’s drive-to-own model, participating drivers will be given the opportunity to pay down the cost of the car as they earn, with the option to pay off the car in full at the end of the contract.
Under the partnership, inDrive and GoCab will work together to support its operational rollout in accordance with applicable local regulations and market requirements. GoCab will support participating drivers in their use of the inDrive platform and ensure that all vehicles meet local regulatory requirements and specifications.
The collaboration will also include a sustainability dimension. In Morocco, GoCab is exploring opportunities linked to electric vehicle adoption, supporting the country’s ambitions around greener and more sustainable mobility.
By lowering the upfront cost of vehicle ownership, the partnership aims to enable thousands of people to access flexible earning opportunities and progressively build long-term financial independence.
