Abstract
[en] This research is based on a prior study done by "Farajallah, Hammond and Penard" in 2016, and focuses on the Belgian market of the Peer-to-Peer platform BlaBlaCar. The intent of this research is to analyze, how the reputation of a driver influences his pricing behaviour and the amount of seats he sells for a trip in his car. The fi ndings show, that the results from the original study, which took place in France, could not be replicated with the Belgian data.
