You & Your Car Driven Home Safely
Had a few drinks? Angelift is the only NSW-Government Authorised App for Designated Drivers who get you and your car home, safely.
Verify us — or any designated driver service — on the official NSW register.
Pick a time, see the fare estimate, then confirm.
Your Angel Driver chauffeurs you in your vehicle.
A second driver meets you to take your driver back.
How It Works
A pre-booked, dual-driver service that gets you and your car home in one trip — no taxis, no leaving your car behind.
Book at least 2 hours ahead. Choose your pickup, drop-off and confirm your fare upfront.
One Driver Takes You Home. Another Driver Returns Them. Drivers are ID-verified, police-checked professional drivers.
Our Angel drives you home in the comfort of your own safe car — your safe child seats, your stuff, your way.
At drop-off, the second guardian driver meets our Angel Driver and returns them back safely.

Why Trust Angelift With Your Keys?
It's a big ask — handing over your keys. Here's the layered protection built into every Angelift trip so you, your loved ones and your car are covered.
Angelift is an authorised Booking Service Provider with Transport for NSW (BSP #458249) — held to the same regulatory standard as taxis and major rideshare platforms. Verify on the NSW register →
National Police Check, ID-verified, clean driving history. No DUIs, no suspensions.
Watch your car on the map in real time. Route history securely stored.
One-tap link to family or a friend — they see driver, vehicle, route and ETA.
One tap to 000 with live location. Command Center monitors every active trip 24/7.
Every Angelift trip has an Angel Driver and a Guardian Angel. Two verified people, accountable to each other and to you — not one stranger alone with your car.
The trip can't start until you show your PIN to the driver and they show theirs to you. No PIN, no keys handed over — ever.
Your driver completes a 360° photo and video walk-around of your car at pickup and drop-off. Cloud-backed and timestamped — no mystery dents in the morning.
Want extra peace of mind? Turn on in-trip audio recording before you start. Stored securely — only released if you ever need to dispute or report.
Minimum 4.8★ rating, 1+ year experience, top 5% of rideshare drivers. Inducted with our 18-question safety quiz — pass mark is 100%.
Drivers carry their own cover and remain responsible up to the insurance excess if they're at fault. We recommend AAMI-style policies that cover unnominated drivers.
Built by Australians, for Australians — with local support, local compliance and local accountability. We don't outsource trust.
Authorised under the NSW Passenger Transport (Point to Point Transport) Act.
Anyone can call themselves a “designated driver service.” Only an authorised one appears on the NSW Government's official Point to Point register. Search “Angelift” — you'll find us (BSP #458249). Before you hand your keys to any service, search them too. If they're not listed, ask why. Search the official NSW register →
Registered Australian business — full ABN traceability and accountability.
The True Cost of Drink Driving
One wrong decision can cost you everything — your life, someone else's, and your licence.
NSW Drink Driving Penalties
Plus court costs, legal fees, insurance hikes, job loss & a permanent criminal record.
The True Cost of Alternatives
NSW trips average from $79 based on real trip data (kms, time, peak periods) — and that already includes both drivers: one to drive you and your car home, and a second to return them. No surprises versus the real cost of leaving your car behind.
The Rideshare Reality Check
Traditional rideshare gets you home — but leaves your car behind. Here’s the real-world difference once Sunday morning arrives.
Your car comes home with you — in your driveway when you wake up
Car left behind — tow risk $500–$1.5K+ if you don’t collect by morning
One trip, no double-ups — you’re chauffeured in your own car, direct route home
Three separate rides (out, home, back to the car) — surge pricing on every leg
Wake up, coffee, keys on the bench, car in the driveway — day starts on time
Sunday morning lost to a car-retrieval mission across town
NSW average from $79 (real trip data: kms, time, peak) — itemised, all-in, includes both drivers, no surge games
$80–$150+ for rides alone — before any tow, break-in or fines
Car is home — not parked unattended on a strip street overnight
Break-in / theft exposure $2K–$30K+ — plus an insurance claim and excess
Licence, car and clean record stay yours — no “maybe I’m okay to drive” gamble
If retrieval feels too hard, the temptation to drive yourself — fines, jail, licence gone
Two verified drivers — National Police Check, PIN exchange, Command Center oversight
One driver, no PIN, no central oversight if the trip goes sideways
Transparent itemised quote up front — base, distance, time, return, all visible
Surge multipliers and per-leg pricing — final cost only known after the third ride

How Angelift Compares to Other Designated Driver Services
Other designated driver services exist — but the gaps in their setup are exactly what we built Angelift to close. Here’s the side-by-side.
Two drivers, coordinated convergence at drop-off
One driver, no backup, no coordinated return plan
4-digit PIN exchange before the trip starts — on a TfNSW-authorised platform
No PIN — anyone can show up wearing a badge
Transparent itemised fare estimate before you confirm
SMS or phone quotes — hidden extras, price shock when you settle up
In-app SOS — one-tap help with live location; trips monitored by Command Center
No central oversight — nobody monitoring if something feels wrong
Digital pre & post-trip inspection — timestamped in-app evidence
No vehicle inspection — your word vs theirs
Full live GPS tracking — both drivers and route, plus share trip with a contact
No live trip sharing — contacts can’t follow your ride or route
Stripe-backed payment & itemised receipts you can actually dispute
Cash or informal payment — weak receipt trail if you need to dispute
In-app secure chat with your verified drivers — National Police Check, verified driving record
Side-channel SMS or phone numbers passed around informally — no audit trail
