Please broaden your spectrum. The moment you make the mistake of investing your 5m into this business, you are stuck in this dead end trap for the next 5/6years of your life. You wouldn't want to get out anymore because you want to recoup your investment and make profit, that day may never come eventually.

Look away from this place as fast as you can. You can do.better in the next 2/3years by investing one third of that money in some other ventures apart from Uber. Look around your hood, there will always be something there for you to do.

PS: Only get involved in this business if you have a car laying fallow that you need to temporarily use for this, otherwise flee with yout money as fast as you can.

Thanks for the advice

If u have 5m cash or in ur account, then think of a business u can start with it.
Don't veer into ehailing atall

I actually have more than that, I'm just looking for how to increase my earnings

Pearl1910:


Bolt Net 65k vs Indrive Net 45k
Clear 20k difference

Ive already told you about making more money on Bolt than Indrive, but the ease-ness it’s not same. I am not talking in terms of hours and we don’t burn same fuel. Bolt put me on lot of tension when I was on it, the last time I did it in December, I didn’t even remember to start the trip. I just wasn’t use to the app again and riders seem always unease to me. Some we be looking at you with one kind eyes like you are doing some bad thing for reasons best known to you. Follow here annoys me on it own.

If I am truly committed and want to do 70k on Indrive in a day, I’ll do it. I cherry pick trip a lot and this consumes time. Even when I close yesterday ard 10pm, trips are still flowing. Anything outside ikeja, surulere, Yaba to Kusenla., you won’t see me. Yesterday someone offered me 10k from Awolowo rd to shah, I didn’t go. One of the reason I never argue about pricing, I just love driving at my pace and what my mental state can carry.

Boss if you have more than that? Put your resources into something else. Transportation is volatile, by the time you’ll learn some personal lessons, it won’t be practicable to you again.

CheerfulGiver:
Bolt actually died. If they didn't die, why are they unblocking drivers?

I told you they changed their ways

Cheerful, you are right on the bolded.. I was surprised when I got a mail from Bella on Tuesday that my account has been unblocked. I'm like Bolt is feeling the heat.

Uber too has improved .. I'm always wondering, why Uber held unto destinations all these years.

Pope, absolutely true.
Ease of cherrypicking trips is the greatest advantage indrive offers, because lately, there seems to be more broke riders on Indrive.
Also, that bossy rider directing you follow here,pass here puts me off on Bolt.

But you see, working at your pace is bliss.

Twilight2:
Comrades Greetings !!!

Please I would want to know, this my second day using bolt, please I need explanation on this,

Should the Passenger pay me #8600 or #7300?
Please I need more clarity in this.

Thanks to you contributing

When u end the trip, the big bold amount is what u should collect. In this case its N7,300.
The balanece Bonus to Rider still enters ur account with Bolt as if u did a card trip.

Muhammadson2020:
Where I s cash discount. I am very sure cash discount will be up to 10k

Rider Discount is still my money na, its paid to me same way Card trips are paid

The destination thing alone makes Uber the best app already for drivers. Nobody would have given indrive a thought if these apps were offering what they are right now. Uber doesn't even care about cancellations anymore. My earnings dramatically increased because of those new features

Kunle56:

My advise is leave this country or find a way to earn in FX
But if u desire to enter emailing business, then buy 2 small naija used cars still in good condition and put on the road.
U will still sell the cars at a profit whenever u want out of the business.
But there still many things u can do with ur funds.

I no dey drag anything with u Pope, just telling u that thing u want to do with Felicity is better u use Bolt earnings not Indrive.
Then this ur talk always of making more than what u have ever made is weak...what if I told u I could have made 150k yesterday but because I was cherry picking trips I made 85k, how will it sound in ur ear?

The app is majorly meant for the broke before 😂 me that is looking at Amarachi yesterday 😂 in my mind, you go sleep for office. Some riders no just get conscience. And another thing I’ll never understand about Indrive is their courier service. Some times I’m tempted to pick some just to ask if it’s 7 days delivery package they want.

Forget it! Indrive is king 😂 but on the honest side, what I am trying to say is there is always more time, tho I am trying to be on the ease side. I know you won’t agree to this submission, but I feel drivers should factor their health into whatever they are doing. 11 hours you did is not bad atall. For me, health is what I put on check first and not money. Herbert case tot me few lessons as well..: up and down, nah people go still help man enjoy this money. As for Bolt? They blocking me after covid just make me dislike the app, It’s too insensitive of them. Just like the are unblocking drivers now and they are expecting them to jump on the app. If nah me, I go block them back. Let’s do two can play.

On Feli, I am not the type that post earning 😂 just need he knows, we can work and chew gum at the same time. I have people that have boutique or other business and still drive. I can go inspect and do car sales business this morning and by 10 enter my ride and still make good money(money no deh reach) and many entries to market, it’s not be claiming titles, are you getting it right? What’s the point of selling your car, when you can juggle both. Who even try to live on one stream of income for this Lagos? We are online and I believe wetin we no understand about each other pass wetin we understand sha.

Sometimes they do give better offer.

Courier is for motor bikes.. A lot of bike guys use it.

Bolt lost revenue in March, that's why they quickly rushed to unblock drivers. I'm sure the earnings for Easter was a shocker to them,they saw a dip in millions of naira.

Their revenues shocked them especially around Easter. The narrative, that they have more riders is false. The actual scenario is otherwise. Right now,they have few drivers.
They lost drivers so much ,that riders have to wait long periods to get rides.

Bolt is quick to adapt and retrace their steps..one good thing about them.

Nah shortage of drivers dey cause this long pick up, and, there's nothing bolt can do unless they remove that driver score thing and go back to normal rating...

Hello Chiefs, please is it just me or Uber has removed their 7trip promotions from the app? They first reduced it from 4,200 to 3,800 for Monday to Thursday etc, but this week nothing at all and no notification for next week own too.
Do you people on Uber still have this promotion?

The promotions was to lure drivers now .. what were you thinking? If they have the required number of drivers on the platform, then they are good.

Sorry for my interjection, does the 85k cover total earnings minus fuel ...

just curious

Please house, who understands the Move in partnership with Uber ... offering Suzuki manual transmission car for ehailing

i am about to stand as guarantor for a sibling, the remittance is 9400 daily for 4years

Dear house, how feasible and viable is it, anyone with experience.

sorry for tew much questions

That's the gross, including fuel.
The net is 65k including fuel.
The fuel should be btw 15 to 20k.

Remove fuel from 65k, the bal is the profit

Go ahead and Stan for him, he won't go wrong except he's lazy. 9400 everyday is something he can get from 6am - 12pm
The remaining time is his and if he's smart, it is sure for him to net (Before fuel) 100k weekly

If moove drivers are able to meet up with 9400 daily return, then, owner partners should start demanding for 50k weekly remittance and it shouldn't be a problem for drivers to meet up...

Why driving to own.?

Tell your sibling to go for the rental option. If you want a plan on how to go about it. Tell the house.

It's too long and tedious that way.

If the car is sound and sharp. Its achievable in a week. Even with Indrive, it can be achieved.
How much more with 2 main apps.
