  • Drivers are Paid for Placing Free Screens Showing Content, Entertainment and Advertising To Passengers

Octopus Interactive, the largest national network of interactive screens inside of Uber and Lyft vehicles, announced that the company has paid its network of Uber and Lyft drivers more than $5 million since screen distribution began in mid-2018.

“Rideshare drivers form the foundation of our platform, providing passengers with entertainment, games, and other content on their ride,” said Bradford Sayler, COO and Co-Founder of Octopus Interactive. “Many of our drivers use the supplementary income from Octopus as a meaningful component of their overall rideshare earnings, and we’re thrilled to have reached such an important milestone.”
