Student-verified rides

Students only.
No exceptions.

Every person on Flock — driver or passenger — must verify with a UK university .ac.uk email address before they can post or book a single ride. No exceptions. No workarounds.

That means every journey you take is shared exclusively with fellow students. Not the general public. Not strangers from the internet. Your people.

Verified with j.smith@leeds.ac.uk University of Leeds · Verified student

.ac.uk email verification

Every account requires a valid UK university email address. No .ac.uk, no account — on either side of the ride. This single gate removes the stranger danger problem that held back every predecessor.

Verified profiles, not anonymous listings

See the driver's university, year of study, and rating before you commit. No anonymous listings. Every profile is tied to a real, verified student identity.

Two-way ratings after every ride

Drivers rate passengers. Passengers rate drivers. A reputation system that works because everyone has a real identity at stake — and their university email on the line.

Cost-sharing, never profit-making

Flock fares are set by HMRC cost-sharing rules. Drivers recover fuel costs — nothing more. This keeps everyone legal, insurance-valid, and protected.

How it works

Three steps.
Door to door.

01
Verify your .ac.uk

Sign up with your university email. We verify you're a current UK student — that's the only requirement. Every single person on Flock has passed this same check.

02
Post or find a ride

Heading home for Christmas? Post your route and pick up passengers going your way. Need a lift? Find a driver already making your journey.

03
Share the cost

Fares are split fairly — you pay a fraction of the equivalent train fare. The driver covers their fuel. Flock takes a small booking fee. Everyone saves.
