"I pulled up Uber after the Sphere show on a Saturday. $54 to get back to my hotel. Then I remembered I had Vay on my phone."
There's a new way to get around Las Vegas that most tourists walk right past. It's called Vay, and it works completely differently from Uber, Lyft, or any rideshare you've used before.
Instead of someone driving you, a car is delivered to your location by a remote driver. You get in, take the wheel, drive wherever you want, and when you're done, you either park it yourself or hand it back to a Remote Valet right on the Strip. It's a rental car without the rental counter, surge pricing, or parking nightmares.
Wait. How Does This Actually Work?

What Other Tourists Are Saying
"We used this three days in a row. Drove to Red Rock in the morning, came back for a nap, went out again at night. Uber would have been double the price and half the flexibility."
"The car was already waiting when I got outside after the show. Just unlocked it with my phone. No driver, no awkward 'rate me 5 stars' moment. Drove back myself in 8 minutes."
"Took some getting used to the idea that a person remotely drove the car to me, but honestly once you're in it, it's just a car. Saved us easily $80 over four days versus Lyft."
Frequently Asked Questions
Vay is a remote-valet car service. A human remote driver steers a car to your pickup location using technology, then you take the wheel and drive wherever you want. When you're done, park it yourself or hand it back to a Remote Valet on the Strip or Downtown without ever dealing with a parking garage.
Use Vay. Unlike Uber and Lyft, Vay charges no surge multiplier at any time of day. Fares stay flat after shows, on weekends, New Year's Eve, and during fight nights. Download the Vay app, enter referral code YZRFQI for $30 in credit, and you're set.
Yes. Vay covers the full Strip resort corridor, downtown Fremont Street, and surrounding Las Vegas neighborhoods. Driverless delivery runs every day 5:00 AM to 12:30 AM. Self-pickup is available 24/7. Open the app and drop a pin at your hotel to confirm your address is in the coverage zone.
The referral code is YZRFQI. Enter it when you create your Vay account to receive up to $30 in ride credit toward your first rentals. The person who referred you also receives $30 when you redeem it.
Yes. Flexible stopovers are one of Vay's best features for tourists. Stop at a supermarket, casino, the Hoover Dam, Red Rock Canyon, or anywhere else. A lower fee applies while your car is parked during a stopover, so there is no pressure to rush back.
Two options. Self-park it in any free spot or metered spot with a 10-hour limit within the white or purple zone on the map. Or, in the purple zone (covering the Strip and Downtown), hand the car back to a Remote Valet via the app and walk away without parking at all.
The Short Version
Vegas is set up to drain your wallet fast. Hotel fees, show tickets, dinner, drinks. The transportation bill sneaks up on you, especially with surge pricing after peak hours.
Vay flips the script. You get a car delivered to you, drive on your own schedule, and return it without ever touching a parking garage elevator. The $30 referral credit makes your first rides essentially free.
Download Vay, use code YZRFQI, and book your first delivery before you land. Your next late-night Strip escape just got a lot cheaper.
