About Breeze:
Breeze empowers job seekers by handing them keys to cars optimized for use in today's on-demand ecosystem. No other financing option adequately addresses the needs of individuals hoping to join the on-demand workforce. We offer our members the most flexible, cost-efficient solutions so that they can start earning income and writing the next chapter of their lives.
What's the difference between Breeze and regular financing?
We are aware that Uber Leasing has created a flexible lease product that is very similar to Breeze. We would like to reiterate that a Breeze Membership includes more than just a flexible lease.
Before you get your Breeze car, our local operations team is there to help you reserve a VIN, get insurance or pick up your car. In addition, our Customer Service team is here to answer any questions or concerns you might have about our membership program, the ridesharing economy or any details about the lease.
After you get your Breeze car, our Member Success team will check in and make sure you’re maximizing your income (and we encourage that you drive for multiple services). We work with you to optimize your work schedule and ensure a smooth transition into your new job as a freelancer.
Uber, because of their position as a ridesharing platform, unlike ours as a leasing platform, is unable to offer the type and depth of support that we at Breeze are able to provide.

About Clearbanc
Clearbanc has launched a new type of banking service for the millions of self-employed Americans.
Its first product is a service for Uber drivers that allows them to get paid instantly instead of waiting up to 10 days.
With Clearbanc, Uber drivers receive a Visa Debit card where their earnings are deposited instantly so they get paid every time they drive.
Founder Andrew D’Souza (formerly of Top Hat and Nymi) says, “It’s time for banks to catch up to today’s reality.”
“Over 50 million Americans are choosing self employment, but traditional banks and financial service providers haven’t been able to adapt to this cultural and economic shift,” he explains.
According to D'Souza, drivers are lining up to join Clearbanc and hundreds more are on the waitlist.
Every Uber driver who signs up with Clearbanc receives a seven-day trial period free of charge. After that, the cost is $2 for each day that Clearbanc deposits funds into the driver’s account. Drivers are only charged for the days they work and they can cancel anytime.
The startup is already working on ways to expand its service to other freelancers and self-employed professionals facing similar financial challenges: unstable cash flow, tax planning, variable income, and limited borrowing options.
In addition to providing clients with instant pay, Clearbanc will also provide suggestions on how clients can earn more income to meet their financial goals and save money on taxes.
With this announcement, Clearbanc is the first YCombinator Fellowship company to unveil its work publicly. Accepted into the program this year, Clearbanc is one of 33 startups, selected from over 6,500 applicants, who are receiving mentorship and support from YCombinator in its newest program.

SherpaShare Pulse gives on-demand drivers a way to share their voice
SherpaShare is the largest driver community in the world, built by drivers, for drivers. SherpaShare Pulse gives that community a new way to share stories, ask questions, and get the information and insights you want in real-time.
Download from Apple's Application Store
The new iPhone app will allow drivers to collaborate in real-time. Have a question about Uber’s new airport policy or looking for real-time driving tips in your city? Want to rant about traffic or tell a story about a memorable passenger?
The existing SherpaShare Driver app, which focuses on mileage and earnings tracking, also has an existing chat community, being used by tens of thousands of drivers. Pulse is expanding that chat, which has several thousand new posts and replies each week from drivers around the world.
