How does Pickup work?

- Pickup is an on-demand transit service that takes multiple passengers heading in the same direction and books them into a shared vehicle. To use the Pickup app, type in your address and your destination and we’ll match you with a vehicle going your way. We’ll pick you up on a nearby corner and drop you off within a few blocks of your requested destination. Our algorithms provide trip times that are comparable to a taxi, even with multiple pickups along the way.

- Don’t have a smartphone? Call 512-369-6200 to request a ride. We’ll let you know the pickup and drop-off address of your vehicle, as well as its ETA.

When does it operate?

- The pilot program for Pickup by CapMetro will operate Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays between 9 a.m. and 6 p.m.

How long will I wait?

- Our average wait time is 5 minutes, and you'll always get an accurate estimate of your pick-up ETA before booking. You can also track your car in real-time in the app.

How many passengers will I share a car with?

- The number of passengers you will share a ride with will vary based on capacity and your chosen destination. Our minibuses can easily accommodate up to 12 people.

How much will it cost me?

- For the launch of the service, you can ride for free — no credit card or cash collection required.
