That&#x27;s not quite true. You normally wouldn&#x27;t refer to Lyft&#x27;s total proceeds as &quot;revenue&quot;, gross or otherwise. Retail stores hold inventory which runs the risk of going unsold. Not true of Lyft. Ebay calls it &quot;gross merchandise sales&quot;. PayPal calls it &quot;total payment volume&quot;. Google subtracts &quot;TAC&quot; out of its network revenue. Etc. I&#x27;ve seen Uber refer to it as &quot;gross bookings&quot;.
