BlaBlaCar is an international service which helps search travel companions for long trips. Here people, who need to get to a neighboring location, can find a car that follows the same route. As a rule, a trip on BlaBlaCar is cheaper than on a bus, train or airplane. As for car owners, it's a great way to recoup their fuel costs. In short, there are benefits for everyone. 

In 2017, the service also launched the BlaBlaLines project for quick trips within the city, but it has not achieved the same success. Probably due to the oversaturation of the niche with car sharing and taxi services. However, BlaBlaCar turned out to be a very popular product, and its popularity is only growing. Starting from 2019 it is also possible to choose and buy bus tickets through BlaBlaCar. The website emphasizes that it cooperates only with legal carriers. 

To use the service, you will need to verify your phone number. If you create a second or additional account, or for some reason just do not want to enter your real number, use SMS-Activate virtual numbers. A "fake" number will allow you to pass verification and keep your personal data private. 

Registration with a virtual number will not affect your experience of using BlaBlaCar. All communication between drivers and travelers goes through the application, and if you are asked to switch to WhatsApp or another messenger, there is a high probability that you are dealing with fraudsters then.
