Sorry bro, you should have asked from people into it. Firstly, it’s not all app price you will accept. Their some trip you need to negotiate with the rider before going. There are some places you will take a rider to and u will come back empty… those places you rather ignore the ride or charge the customer. Fenk u. |

Always stay in one cool spot and wait for orders to come in. Quit driving around looking for orders. Select a hotspot where orders come in frequently. Cheers! 1 Like |

Bolt is not lucrative anymore like it used to. Most bolt drivers no longer carry passengers online. They pick you and tell you that they want to go offline to bypass the commission. The high cost of fuel has negatively impacted the business. 1 Like |

Re: My Second Week As Bolt Driver by olancho: 9:57am On Feb 14 |
Don’t just drive on bolt app alone get Uber and the rest apps. Avoid long pickups and traffic areas too. Avoid buying bulk fuel because it will discourage you from running around without passengers. Buy 10litres and when it finishes you buy another one. Avoid buying fuel from most NNPC stations forget the 568 naira they are selling it is scam buy from mobil, total or north west there fuel last more than NNPC fuel. Lastly start early and close early too. Don’t be discouraged with time you will master 4 Likes |

That your money will give good income on sure odds. Eg Today Bologna vs Fiorentina serie A 19:00 1&over 1.5 = 3.1 odds Al Makalwon Arab vs Enppi Club 15:00 2 2.3 odds I drive nowadays to make little money to play. I will buy 15k fuel and make profit of just 3k. If I put dat 15k at 1k each on single sure 2odds , my returns will be better. 1 Like |

Re: My Second Week As Bolt Driver by DIVINEEVIDENCE: 10:16am On Feb 14 |
OP you must sit down to find out things you're doing wrong. If na like this, nobody go dey that business by now. 1. Do you drive around aimlessly looking for passengers? 2. Are you buying fuel from stations with 'corrected' meters? 3. What car are you using? Is it fuel efficient? 4. Is the pay you're receiving accurate? |

CollectMoney: I have been to ilorin, ibadan and ph. Most of this states are civil servant states. Their purchasing power is low. Exception for ph They always have readily available taxi's and buses to board and they come way cheaper. The bolt driver 98% of the time are always complaining and begging for more money or never able to use their ac, tells you the business is not businessing. Bolt in this states are mostly used by students, any any business students power is seasonal as they won't always be in school. |
