3. The number of drivers who have posted their listings today.
4. The number of listings that have been posted today.
5. The total number of active users (buyers), growth rate, the percentage of items purchased by old and new customers.

Monetizing comes through implementing an Internet payment system: passengers pay for travel on this platform when they book the car seats. This payment includes the price set by the driver (within the limit defined by BlaBlalCar, they can compensate only the travel cost) and the brokerage fee of 10-15%, which is the only source of income for this web platform.The driver receives the payment from the passenger only after the journey has been completed.
