Let's have an intellectual discussion about these two platforms. note: intellectual discussion not an Argument/debate...

I careless about all platforms, I'm not their agent and not willing to be one ambassador

Now....I'm of the opinion, if a driver was to use the indriver platform, he needs to be smart. Here is it, previously someone embarked on a bolt trip from LUTH - Unilag and it ended N2900.
(Surge or No surge)

So he is to pay %23 commission...N667
He earns N2233...
A Driver might decide to go on such trip on indriver for N2400
With %9.5 commission - N228
He earns N2172...
Arguably - the difference is N61 (quite negligible)

Now, here lies the caveat...ensure the route you wan' go is of less traffic and short. Or better still ensure you drive against traffic.

Now, in this hustle....Time is of essence...for someone like me, I drive max - 4 days a week, I don't chase bonuses, if it comes- fine, if does not al'amdulilahi...

Like Pearl 1960 pleaded with a driver to move from toll gate lekki to wemco N3500 around 1p.m...without commission... Why not? You move ....Why wait for yeye surge, why drive back to a surge area and wait till you get offers at most N4500, closing hour....why not go wemco drop off and go position to alausa..begin your shuttle Ikeja - surulere back to Ikeja or magodo back n forth...

Time is key and Health is paramount...

In a nutshell....in this hustle, once you meet your target...ure good to go...

There's absolutely nothing bad in achieving your dream of a N1M, but your Chest and car go hear Pansa Pansa... (Ref - BAZOO)
Your mental health also - the oloshos with the prefix "Òga" appellation grin

I don carry biro and paper to note.
As it stands Uber is winning on paper
Cos my bolt inspection expired on Saturday I went to my painter last week to paint d two doors no dent just paint.
D man get like 6cars to paint and asked me to come back dis week.
I met major Generals of lazy D at lekki phase 2 under shade who told me to go and do inspection dt it will pass.

I will go and try inspection if it pass I continue with bolt but if it fails and painter no get chance Na to port to Uber and be pursuing 2%

My mind tells me Uber is better but Being blind to destination is my fear

The truth is, even if bolt jack up rates to 25%, nobody will do anything cos there is no regulation . LASG is happy, as long as ₦20 per trip keeps dropping into their Aza.

Only if Uber can do the needful and open up destination, ( I know they won't) then they might close up the gap.
As it stands, Bolt still leads.
When a rider is tired of waiting forever for a ride, he/she opts for Bolt inspite of being slight higher.

InDriver : I was expecting them to disrupt the status quo, highly disappointed, they are quite content with the crumbs they get.

Naso bros say make i bring aza and he sent me 20K that morning and promised to balance me on our way back.

To cut story short, na house warming we go. Lowkey inside compound party. 20K bal hit my aza after i drop them around 5PM.

What the hell is booking fee when there's a base fare?

Thank! Being waiting to hear this since this argument came up?

Well, I'm not interested though, if my account was still open, they would have heard from me by mail should I see any discrepancy on my earnings.

What sense does it make,

Booking fee (3%)
Base fare (fixed price) N260
Driver's commission: 20%
Total Commission charges: 23% from the total sum collected from the rider yet you claim the driver is not being charged the 23% but 20%.

This is nothing but double taxation/robbery on the path of both the riders and the drivers because you've already charged a base fare which is same as booking fee. Now you collect 20% from that N260 from the driver and also collect an extra 3% of the total sum not just on the booking fee even.

This is daylight robbery and this fight is not just for the drivers alone to fight but also for the riders as well... The country is hard already and we can't keep allowing all of these ill happenings going on

geezyk:
Ok then, how do you then calculate the 3% booking fee from a 600N trip, or probably they don't add it to insignificant fares or they add it to fares 1k and above.

The fact still remains that instead of adding 3% booking fee and subtly adding to commission deducted, why not increase fare and then increase commission afterwards, that's a fair bargain.

I bet you they know what they're doing, this is just the pilot episode, wait for when the real drama begins.

First we haven to establish the fact that base fare is same as booking fee or that booking fee is part of base fare or let's call on our honourable bolt agent the one and only honorable pearl1910 to come and explain to us the meaning and dichotomy of these two charges phrases so we can head forward to knowing what is what and what to say about this subject.

We must first define the problem going forward.

Same as your budget bro even in that Abuja you talked about you'll get very clean and well maintained naija use at a very cheap amount say 1m-1.4m just make sure you get a good Mercedes Benz mechanic and electrician and also an AC technician to go with you at different time for inspection. Pay them 10k or 20k each. You will be glad you did.

Everyone knows his antics.

They're calling him a bolt agent and he is letting it get into his coconut head, don't be surprised, he might pull up someday at their office, to lobby for a proper deal.

That's his reason for defending them blindly, time to put his word to action, man chickened out. Him dey pick on one slight error from all my posts (normal pattern of trying to change the narrative).

I no go waste time dey flog dead horse, would not indulge him.

How your Camry na? (I for say oil sipping lemon limca but baba don apologize) grin

How the hustle bro? You don near your 1m? Looks like you've been doing 250k week in week out this December... wink

My mind tells me Uber is better but Being blind to destination is my fear

Come to think about it there's nothing like blind or knowing where you're actually going to b4 hand.

Every job has its ethics and modus operandi. Same way a technic is needed to stay afloat driving with indriver is same way technic is needed to net 200k easily on bolt.

I've come to understand that the blind request on Uber isn't something to bug one's head about, simply ask politely, please where are you going to? All along no rider has given me headache and if it's not okay with me I politely tell them to request again or drop some story of where I am or how cancellation doesn't cost a thing.

So in the end, it all balls down to strategy.

The only edge I see Bolt has over Uber right now is the set destination feature which allows one to set at any given time.

On Sunday I was able to set destination and I was given a trip very close to my house on Uber so I believe Uber blind request is nothing to worry about.

Hmm... 72 weeks.

Assume 72 trips amounts to a min of 100k weekly net which is a total of 72 weeks round contract period that's a whooping sum of N7.2m.

Ok now, they do maintenance... But how about repairs because that is totally difference from maintenance, did you ask about that?

How about taking a trip outta state because there is no way one would drive for 18months without getting a trip offer outta state, what's the stake on that?

How about being blocked by Uber to low rating or high cancellation? What happens during the period? Any preference or shield to your account as a Moove contractor and partner to Uber?

What's the size of the engine? I believe 2.0L, do you know you'll be needing at least 6k daily for fuel to meet up to this daily and weekly target bc0s of some long distance PU? that's about 35k Mon - Fri... Will the tank be filled up being being handed over to you?

During campaign/promotions, e.g 2% after 6,8, or 20 trips, who goes home with the bonus amount? Moove or you?

Health.

Is there health insurance in the contract? HMO or something
What happens on the days you fall sick, have functions to attend outta state or decide to have a week leace or break?



These and many more are questions I asked them then when they never allowed me rest as they were always calling I come pick one of the cars on rental then. So bro, ask them question ooh. But las las... If they say they're also responsible for repairs guy! Jump at it but tell them to fill your tank.

Explore every opportunities at your disposal... Pkata pkata you drop the car if e no work well with you or if a better opportunity comes up.
