u see ah.

i received a total of RM23 from fare (one RM8 trip, three RM5 trip). Petrol used approx 5 litres. As I am new, grab gave me RM20 free credit.

RM23 - RM5.75 (25% commission) - RM10 petrol = RM7.25
*
Basically your ecperience has 2 'outlier'.

1. Took you too long to kautim RM23 fares. Maybe seriously jam...?
2. Your car drank 5 liters of petrol..... tank bocor i think. How you get 5 liters. 5 liters can go 50km oh

I don't disagree that 3 trips per hour is still good earnings.

276/35 = About the same as me 8km/trip. Actually, correction, I check back, actually today I'm closer to 9km/trip.

293+238=531. Minus 20% commission = 424.80

424.80/35 = RM12.14/trip (Haha, same with Uber Ace Diamond tier.)

12.14/7.86 = RM1.54/km.
For me:

115/13 = 8.85km/trip

Earnings per trip after minus commission = RM14.4

14.4/8.85 - RM1.63/km.
Anyway, you misunderstand my meaning again. If my area no pings, what Grab want me to do? I got drive around a bit but still very few pings. Takkan Grab want me to drive more than 10 or 15km to go find pings?
Anyway, why you don't use your odometer to measure your mileage? 276km means from the moment you leave your house until you reach home? I measure my odometer when I leave my house and measure it again when I reach home. All the driving to go to fishing pond and to go home is cost to me.
And yela yela.. I know la need to online for the full hour... This is why Uber Ace less stress. If terpijak into jam area, just cabut. Not like Grab just sit there and die because need to online full hour.
*
Frankly.. earnings per km not the best way to measure.

Better would be earning per hr.. especially nett (after all cost)

Other than the army camp trip,it is a relaxing drive for me.only use one block of petrol

Tried Grab Associate Flexi on my first week and now trying Grab Ambassador Flexi. And I personally find that Grab Associate Flexi was better than Grab Ambassador in terms of incentive.

Correct me if I am wrong as the Grab Associate Flexi incentives goes by daily, if I hit 13 trips a day, I will have a cashback of 15% of my commission deducted, which means I only pay 10% commission in the end.

But for Grab Ambassador Flexi, I am only guaranteed a RM5 minimum fare, which most of my fare is more than RM5 at the moment and deduct a 20% commission.

Does this make sense?

Advice needed.

Thank you in advance smile.gif

The difference between Ambassador and Associate is the commission you pay to Grab, 20% abd 25% respectively.

Flexi incentives (regardless Ambassador or Associate) are ad hoc .currently think weekend you'll get cashback.
Last week i think everyday had cashback.

Nolah....the photo was taken when i insert the back support.normally when driving will recline a bit.

Btw,my incentives amount for this week very inaccurate leh.i suppose to get rm720++ but only received rm580++

Is it because they delay the incentive for New Year Eve?

Thanks for your reply bro. I tried this morning from 630am till 930am. Got 4 trips for about 21 bucks. Will try late night later and see how. Im not with any incentives yet as i signed up before i could register for the bonuses so this week no point driving during rush hour.

Btw i was wondering, if i opted for HG, can i go completely offline for 1 whole day? Will it affect my incentives or my ratings? Will i get any warnings?
*
You can offline for few weeks i think abd still retain HG. Not tested mths on end yet.

You first have to decide when you drive often. If its always peak time, then HG can protect your min income. 3 hrs to earn rm21 gross is painful. If HG you'll have about rm60 secured minimum, ie 1 trip for each hr.

But if you are regularly driving offpeak then go flexi and look for whales... eg big fares...

Just summarize what i earn in year 2017, started at Mar 2017 as part timer

Net earning - 20.7k
Petrol - 4.8k
Maintenance - 4.5k

Still earn about 11k over the past 9 mths, the petrol included my own usage as well. My car is 7-8 years old so the maintenance is on the high side (change absorber/mounting, lower arm, brake pad, disc rotor etc).

Meaning to say that petrol should be around 20-25% of my fare, maintenance about 20-25% of fare, both of that eat up almost half of the fare. For new car maintenance should be lower than that, 10-15% of fare.

Worth of not doing full time, u do your maths icon_rolleyes.gif
*
Bro can share what major repairs and how much. Exclude normal service.

Petrol should be lower. I believe minus 30%+ for own use? Think you used 3k petrol for grab .

Nett earning collection and incentive both already minus 20% comm? Didn't forget rite?

Major repair - Lower arm, front & back absorber, engine mounting (certain part), disc rotor and brake pad. All this cost around 2k to fix and replace. 7 years car if didn't change a lot noise coming out, or jerking sound. Other than that 2k is for normal service, change engine oil, transmission oil, brake fluid etc. And the last part is the air cond service close to RM600, change the radiator fan, air cond gas, dismantle the radiator and wash, replace dryer etc.

Before driving for grab, petrol around 150-200, so should be 3k+.

The figure is net (after commission and add in incentive). My hourly net is around RM25-32, FYI i rarely drive on P block, mostly HP and above only. So agak agak per week can get RM500 net or more, if got something to do then it will be lesser.

One tips for air cond is to replace the air cond filter every 10,000km, if u don't change it frequently, your compressor has to work harder and the chances it spoil is going to be high. Air cond filter can DIY. Other than that have to send to workshop specialize in air cond.
*
Meaning to say petrol is around 15% of nett fare...

My estimate of standard cost over Gross fares
20% Grab comm
15% petrol
2.5% normal service (oil&filter) RM250 10k km interval
2% tyre RM1k for 50k km (big tyres)
0.5% brake pads 80k km interval (my driving style)

Should also budget timing belt and car battery both near or around 100k interval. Or maybe budget RM300 every 10k km for exceptional items.

My estimate is based mostly on earning RM1 for driving 1km. So it does include pick-up distance etc.

With 40% budgeting for cost over gross is safe. If we get surge or do HG we can bring down 35%.

Tldr... we are earning around RM15-20 per hr of driving in KV.

Actually, I do this quite often.

If passenger say can wait for a while ar? Want to go another place. Or they say want to turn back to pickup location. I tell them to book me again. After all, it is Grab rules. I remember when signing up, Grab said cannot pick up passengers without booking.

Even one time I do this until charity 5th trip. I thought after I drop the rider off (1st stop), it will be the next hour, so I already secured a ST for the next hour (2nd stop). But when I drop the rider off (1st stop), still in the same hour. But it's okay la. Still profitable for me, because short distance only, so I can online for full 60 minutes.

But so far, I never pick up the same passenger more than twice a month.

Today incentives in!  thumbup.gif

Except the KLCC bonus.  mad.gif

No love letter.  rclxms.gif

Its not enforced anymore, same rider within the week not counted into number of incentives trips for HG?

Those days with weekly AR we had this rule. I wouldn't think they abolish it as its to protect gaming.

1) they recommended back2back and if dont accept it, it will effect your AR
answer : true

https://www.grab.com/my/blog/driver/backtobackjobs/

2) but then they also say will get warning if you accept a ping if there is another passenger on board
answer : just ignore it since grab introduce back-to back jobs and grabshare. some rules grab not updated it.

I think it means our own passanger... not Grab rider.

Btw repeat riders seldom happen in KV... those full timers with 200 pax weekly will tell you its easier to find nice lenglui rider sweet talk with you.
