You’re out there grinding 10, 12, sometimes 14-hour shifts. Gas is $4.50 a gallon. The app takes 40% of the fare. Surge pricing disappears the second you drive toward it. And every few months they quietly change the algorithm so you make even less per ride.
You’re wearing out your car, your back, your patience, and your family’s goodwill — all for $18–$25/hour before expenses. After gas, insurance, maintenance, and the phone mount that broke again last week, you’re clearing maybe $14/hour. A fast food worker makes more, and they don’t have to deal with passengers who slam the door or give you 4 stars because of traffic.
Meanwhile, every single person who sits in your backseat is a tourist or a local who is about to spend hundreds — sometimes thousands — of dollars on hotels, restaurants, shows, tours, activities, and services in your city. That money goes to Expedia. To Viator. To Yelp. To random Google results.
Not a single penny of that spending comes back to you. The person who physically drove them to the experience gets nothing.
Until now.
…and everything they book through that link earned you a commission?
Hotels. Restaurants. Tours. Shows. Airport transfers. Home services. Amazon orders. Car rentals. Event tickets. Local deals.
They scan once. They bookmark your page. And for the next 30 days, everything they spend through your links puts money in your pocket. Not Uber’s pocket. Not Lyft’s pocket. YOUR pocket.
No talking required. No pitch. No awkward “hey, have you heard of…” conversation. The QR code does the work. The passenger does what they were going to do anyway. And you get paid.
This is Recommended.app — and it’s completely free.
Sign up in 60 seconds. You get your own personalized page at recommended.app/r/drivermike — a clean page with the best deals and experiences in your city.
Download the full-size flyer from your dashboard. Print it at Staples, FedEx, or your home printer. Laminate it for $2. Slip it into the seatback pocket or clip it to the headrest. Done.
Your kit includes a phone-sized QR sticker. Put it on your dashboard, window, or center console. Passengers scan it while they ride — takes 3 seconds.
Every time a passenger (or anyone with your link) books a hotel, buys show tickets, hires a plumber, or orders on Amazon — you earn a commission. Track it live on your phone between rides.

You're not selling anything. Tourists are already going to book shows, dinners, and tours. When they do it through your link, you get paid. Period.
The QR code and flyer do all the work. The passenger scans on their own. You don't say a word if you don't want to. Most drivers never mention it — the flyer speaks for itself.
No more scribbling your Instagram on a napkin. You get a professional, full-color flyer designed for the backseat and a QR sticker for your dash. Looks legit. Because it is.

Open your dashboard between rides and see exactly how much you've earned today, this week, this month. Every click. Every commission. Every payout. Real numbers, not estimates.
When a passenger scans your QR code, a 30-day tracking cookie is set. Anything they book in the next 30 days through your page earns you a commission — even if they don't book until they get home from vacation.
Whether you drive in Las Vegas, Miami, New York, Orlando, Nashville, or any of 240+ cities — your page auto-populates with local deals and experiences relevant to your city.
This doesn't replace driving. It adds a passive income layer on top. You're already in the car. You're already giving rides. This just means every ride has a chance to pay you twice.

No credit card. No “free trial.” No upgrade required. No strings.
You sign up in 60 seconds. You print one flyer. You stick one QR code in your car. And you go drive like you were going to anyway.
The worst case scenario? Nobody scans it and you lose nothing. You’re exactly where you are right now.
The best case? You add $600 to $2,100 per month in passive income on top of your rideshare earnings — from passengers who were going to spend that money anyway.
Every shift you drive without this in your car is money left on the table. Not Uber’s money. Not Lyft’s money. YOUR money.
