The partnerships are done directly with the drivers regardless of the app they work for.
Mobees was founded in 2019 by José Lyra Júnior, Flávia Coelho and Fábio Barcellos, experienced entrepreneurs that wanted to pursue a new business idea with impact, and realized that helping drivers get an extra income was a meaningful way of doing so, considering that Uber alone has more than 600,000 active drivers in Brazil.
