Allocation of a vehicle to a passenger includes receiving a booking request for a share-ride or a non-share ride. Based on the booking request, sets of sponsored and non-sponsored routes are identified. Each identified route connects at least a source location and a destination location associated with the booking request. Further, one or more sponsored routes are selected from the set of sponsored routes based on a persona of the passenger. A sponsored or non-sponsored route is selected, by the passenger, from the one or more sponsored routes or the set of non-sponsored routes, respectively. Based on the selection by the passenger, an available vehicle is allocated to the passenger for the ride. Similarly, at least sponsored routes are identified and presented to a driver of the allocated vehicle for travelling from a current location to the source location of the passenger.
