2015 | June 25 | Partnerships | Lyft announces a partnership with Starbucks, which connects Lyft with Starbucks’s rewards program and creates perks for drivers: Lyft drivers automatically get Gold status in the Starbucks Rewards loyalty program, while Lyft passengers earn points in the rewards program with each ride.[28] |

This is widely seen as an attempt by the companies to keep Uber at bay. All the other companies in the partnership are market leaders in their respective regions of focus.[31][32] |

2016 | August 6 | Product | Lyf allows to make multiple stops on a trip with a new feature offering riders the ability to input an extra destination within the app. Passengers would be able to input their first destination, then add a second final destination by tapping the “+” icon on their app. They would also be able to remove a destination during the ride by tapping on it and selecting “Remove stop.” Like Uber, Lyft does allow passengers to change destinations mid-trip.[50][51][52][53] |
