Abstract: The invention relates to a method which receives location information of a mobile terminal of a single user. One or more journeys are extracted from the location information of the single user. The corresponding journey data is stored in a journey database. From the journey data in the journey database, journey patterns for the single user are extracted. A journey pattern indicates at least the regularity of a particular journey in time, i.e. over a number of days. The journey patterns are stored in the pattern database. The journey patterns of the single user are matched with patterns of other users. If a match is found, at least one match based on the journey patterns is sent to the single user. These features enable the carpool service to find a match which takes into account the regularity across a period of days. By identifying the regularity, a better match can be made with users which travel the same route, as also the days on which the users travel are taken into account.
