Rideshare driving with platforms like Lyft sounds good on the surface—flexible hours, decent pay, and no boss. But when you factor in gas, mileage, vehicle maintenance, and the unpredictable nature of tips, many drivers are left wondering: Is this really worth it?
There’s a side hustle that pays better—and you don’t have to drive people around, deal with drunk passengers, or stress over ratings.
It’s called mobile notary work—a low-competition, service-based side hustle where you get paid to meet people, verify signatures, and stamp documents.
And here's the kicker: no degree, no selling, and no inventory required.
Most appointments take 20–45 minutes, and the average pay is $75+. That’s double or triple what most Lyft drivers make per hour—even on a good day.
You’ll meet people in calm environments—homes, offices, or coffee shops. No 2AM bar pickups.
Instead of driving all day like a rideshare driver, notary gigs are short and local.
One or two signings a day can outperform a full Lyft shift.
Set your own schedule. Stack signings in the evening, weekends, or around your 9-5 job.
✔️ State Notary Commission (usually under $100)
✔️ A basic laser printer
✔️ Your smartphone for appointments + GPS
✔️ Bonus: A mentor or course to shortcut the learning curve
You don’t need to become a legal expert. Most of the work is basic forms: real estate, estate planning, business filings, and ID verifications.
Absolutely. Here's who uses mobile notaries every day:
🏠 Real estate companies
⚖️ Estate planning attorneys
🚗 Car buyers & sellers
🏢 Title & escrow firms
👵 Elderly clients who can’t travel
The best part? Clients come to you or book appointments through directories and Google listings. Once you're visible online, you can get booked on autopilot.
