Today we’d like to introduce you to Maurice Morris.
Hi Maurice, can you start by introducing yourself? We’d love to learn more about how you got to where you are today?
The hardest part has been building without a safety net. I’ve bootstrapped this company from the start, which means every dollar mattered and every mistake had a cost. Technology alone can eat you alive — developers, app stores, compliance, payment systems — it’s nonstop. On top of that, navigating permits and regulations in multiple states has been an obstacle course in itself.
But the setbacks forced me to get sharper. I learned how to pivot fast, negotiate better, and keep the vision moving forward even when resources were thin. More than once, I had to rebuild relationships and restart deals that fell apart. It’s frustrating, but it also proved something important: this company isn’t built on luck, it’s built on persistence. That’s why we’ve made it this far and why we’re not slowing down.
Would you say it’s been a smooth road, and if not what are some of the biggest challenges you’ve faced along the way?
It hasn’t been a smooth road. Building a high-end rideshare app from scratch meant going up against platforms with endless budgets while I was bootstrapping every step. Tech was one of the biggest hurdles — finding the right developers, keeping the app stable, and making sure payments and compliance didn’t break the system. On top of that, city permits and regulations have been an obstacle course of their own.
There were moments when deals collapsed or funding ran thin, but those struggles forced me to adapt quickly and stay focused on the bigger picture. Each setback became part of the foundation that makes RideshareRates stronger today.
Can you tell our readers more about what you do and what you think sets you apart from others?
I specialize in creating experiences that stand apart. RideshareRates isn’t just another rideshare platform — it’s the world’s only high-end rideshare app, built for people who expect more than a basic ride. Our categories range from luxury sedans and SUVs to G-Wagons, exotics, and a growing lineup of electric vehicles. The idea is simple: when you open the app, you’re not just booking transportation, you’re choosing an experience.
What I’m most proud of is building this from the ground up without following the industry playbook. Mainstream platforms copy each other’s models and compete on discounts. We flipped that. RideshareRates is designed for quality over quantity, where drivers earn more, riders get no surge pricing and vehicles that turn heads.
What sets us apart is our originality. I was raised to never copy, and that philosophy runs through everything we do. Our app is bold, unique, and unapologetic about being different. That’s why our slogan is: *For Bosses. Driven by Bosses.*
Can you tell us more about what you were like growing up?
What matters most to me are my two beautiful children — my 13-year-old son and my 18-year-old daughter. They are my world. Watching them grow, think, and plan life their own way feels like witnessing art in motion. They remind me every day why I keep pushing forward.
I also carry the memory of my cousin, Charles Gadson, who recently passed. He was an entrepreneur in his own right, and I looked up to him in many ways. He showed me that true success isn’t about what you have, but about how you treat people and how they treat you in return.
And then there’s the lesson my mother drilled into me as a child: when I fell off my bike, she wouldn’t let me cry — she told me to get back up and try again. That mindset still defines me. No matter how you fail, you keep fighting. In business, I’ve learned to aim, fire short, and hit smaller goals before swinging for the home runs. Taken together, those lessons are what matter most to me: family, respect, resilience, and building something original that lasts.

Atlanta’s Luxury Market Expands Beyond Retail Into Mobility
Atlanta, GA — September 3, 2025
From designer fashion boutiques in Buckhead to private lounges in Midtown, Atlanta’s luxury market has grown steadily over the past decade. Now, that culture is extending into how residents and visitors move around the city.
The rise of luxury rideshare platforms, including the newly launched RideshareRates, reflects a broader consumer trend: the blending of convenience with status. Riders aren’t just hailing a car — they’re curating an experience.
“Atlanta has become a proving ground for lifestyle innovation,” said Amanda Clarke, a local marketing strategist. “Consumers want something memorable, whether it’s the clothes they wear, the places they dine, or how they arrive.”
Data from industry analysts shows that spending on premium services in metro Atlanta has outpaced national averages. Younger professionals, in particular, are willing to allocate more money to experiences that feel unique and Instagram-worthy.
RideshareRates is tapping into this demand by offering categories such as exotic coupes, vintage classics, and luxury SUVs. Pricing begins at $65 for newer luxury sedans but can exceed $1,000 for rare vehicles, making it a niche option for those seeking exclusivity.
Local businesses are watching closely. Nightclubs, restaurants, and event venues see potential in partnering with high-end mobility companies to attract clientele who value both style and convenience.
As Atlanta positions itself on the global stage — with events like the FIFA World Cup and an expanding film industry — industry experts predict that demand for luxury mobility will grow alongside traditional retail and hospitality.

Atlanta's new Luxury Rideshare
Atlanta’s Luxury Rideshare Startup Aims to Redefine Transportation
Atlanta, GA — September 3, 2025
Atlanta has long been a testing ground for mobility innovation, from the nation’s busiest airport at Hartsfield-Jackson to the city’s rapid adoption of electric vehicles. Now, a new startup is betting that riders want more than convenience—they want luxury.
RideshareRates, a Georgia-based company, has entered the market with a bold proposition: rides in vehicles ranging from late-model electric SUVs to exotic cars such as Rolls-Royce and Lamborghini. The app, which launched in Georgia, Michigan, and Illinois, offers rates starting at $65 and climbing into the hundreds for rare and vintage automobiles.
Company representatives say the goal is to give riders the option to arrive “like a boss,” whether for a night out, a concert, or even a business meeting. “Atlanta is a world-class city that deserves world-class experiences,” said Maurice, CFO of RR WINS LLC, the parent company of RideshareRates.
The company is also testing its presence at major venues including Truist Park and Mercedes-Benz Stadium, where it hopes to capture crowds heading to and from games and concerts. While traditional rideshare giants Uber and Lyft continue to dominate volume, RideshareRates is positioning itself as a category-owner in premium mobility.
Industry analysts note that the timing may be favorable. Georgia has invested heavily in electric vehicle infrastructure, with new charging stations rolling out under state and federal programs. That could dovetail with RideshareRates’ “Carbon-Neutral Class,” a lineup of luxury EVs that includes the new Cadillac Escalade IQ and Rivian SUVs.
“Consumers are showing stronger preferences for experiences that feel unique and elevated,” said Dr. Karen Mitchell, a transportation researcher at Georgia State University. “If RideshareRates can scale, it could carve out a niche that mainstream rideshare platforms aren’t built to serve.”
The company faces challenges, including building rider habits outside of stadiums and events. But its leadership says it is already planning for expansion into additional cities, as well as deeper integration of artificial intelligence to personalize the rider experience.
For now, the startup is leaning into Atlanta’s reputation as a cultural hub. With concerts, sporting events, and the upcoming FIFA World Cup in 2026, the city could provide the stage RideshareRates needs to prove that luxury ridesharing isn’t just a novelty—it’s the next chapter in urban mobility.
