is this real? that being said.. incentive for driver even higher???

anybody can confirm?

go and ride and feedback us here

3rd e-hailing force???
go in website try to check more info all mostly coming soon pigi balik la....

last week, an uber rider told me, quite a few uber drivers claim they'll join mycar instead of grab...

but its still so new the drivers web info not even available yet....

i might actually join this...

shall wait & see...

i try look around the mycar apps, seems driver quite a lot in my area. only few mins longer than grab but fare was way higher where usually cost 25 in grab and it cost 45 using mycar...omg. Unless grab down and very rush..will use mycar else don't bother.

hrrmm..surprisingly.. online info is a little confusing..

MMOnline

here it says its fare is similar to Grab and Slightly more expensive than Uber..

i did my own checking and comparing with Uber, its a lot cheaper, like 20-30% cheaper..probably due to surge

and it also mentioned fare is estimated and may change depending on traffic etc...but on its website, its mentioned fixed fare and no dynamic pricing...

then there's no info on the fare breakdown, like how much per km, per min, base fare etc...only thing mentioned is RM5 min fare...and their comms is 12-15% from fare...

driver website "coming soon" hrrmm.....

I just compare it with both rider apps with same place. Time I did the comparison is non really traffic jam time around 2.30pm.

Cyberjaya to Serdang - grab 27, my car 47
Cyberjaya to ioi Puchong - can't remember but mycar was more rm2

Was just comparing from rider perspective to find cheaper alternative because I'm been hearing mycar is cheaper than grab but i can't notice unless only specific destination which I don't normally go to.

Telling everyone the truth, this is the reality. Majority drivers driving other e-hailing program because:

1. They are Grab ban driver (can be actual offense made before or can also be innocently ban). They no longer got alternative therefore other e-hailing is their only choice.

2. Teksi driver.

haha so true

Exactly. Nothing on their website.

i'm waiting for grab competitor :/

Haha can try moola😄👌

last friday evening sent out registration via email.
till today no response.
hrmmmm....

The reason Grab could beat Uber was because of money from Softbank.
If Mycar is not backed by big investors it can't challenge Grab.

our neighboring country (Indonesia) .. their ride sharing call GoJek even backed by Google among others... it might possible GoJek expand their business to here.. well maybe .. who knows

errr...Softbank is also Uber's largest shareholder.

i believe uber exits market becos it was over its head when it planned a world domination, fighting, competing & investing in every part of the world.
it wasn't 100% failed plan, i mean, if they sit in their own backyard only, rest of world (like grab) will come out with their own version of uber and uber will be too late to enter that market once its matured. so it needs to makes its presence felt in every part of the world.

ultimately, all startup want to attract investors. uber did that with flying colors.

plus they have this huge ambition of investing in self-driven cars, not without sense. same like DIDI's plan for the future where almost everything is automated.

well, its a lot of money to be spent in R&D of this super new & ambitious tech. just like tesla, they'd be burning tons of cash before a single meaningful successful experiment.

and most important of all, uber did not 'just' close shop in SEA. it is now a shareholder of Grab & Didi.

so it can concentrate on its own backyard & plan while still have its presence in rest of the world.

if i were softbank, i also dun want the 'brothers' to keep fighting for 1 pie and both ended up with crusts only.

keep the pie already in hand and go grab (no pun intended) another pie from somewhere else, and/or defend the pie someone else is trying to fight for.

I believe the reason why Uber failed here is because it didn't take into account local rider situation. Not allowing driver to see rider's destination AND having no minimum fare is unworkable here. This resulted in riders calling Uber for RM1 and RM2 rides which incur losses to drivers especially if they have to pay toll to reach the rider. Uber did not expect that due to our hot climate and local laziness to walk many call for short rides of less than 1 km. Grab is a homegrown product so it is more savvy and avoided Uber's mistake.

some flaw in your statement there. Regardless of the fare is 1/2 or even free, uber will still reward the driver directly. secondly, the toll fare is already included in the trip together, without the need to manually add like grab, that is one good integration I can say, there some minor times it is not accurate but they will simply credit back after one just report to them.

The laziness part is very subjective. back in the ol' days when there was still taxi only available, folks use to walk to the main street to get a taxi. so it's all about perception and mindset plus attitude.

I'm not talking about promo codes and free trips which Uber will reimburse the driver. I'm talking about short trips which cost more for the driver to get there than he earns in fares. Uber is not going to compensate the driver for this.

The toll incurred going to fetch the rider is paid by the driver.

The toll Incurred that depends how ones sets their waze, even being a normal Waze user using it or being a driver for grab or others.

No more

Uber had local management. The fact that it accepted cash payment and offered Chinese speaking drivers in certain cities were two examples of local adaptation.

As for short trips, Quest helped to offset the loss to some extent. On the other hand, Grab drivers need to maintain certain percentage of Acceptance Rate so it's not that they can be very choosy.

The chief reason drivers prefer Grab was because of better incentives, and that's because of Softbank money. Uber did eventually get Softbank investment but it's too late...

Haha word up

actually, the uber system is a smart & fair app. i notice quite obviously, app will not send u a high value trip the minute u go online. u usually have to start with ikan bilis fares..a few trips and then uber will throw u a high value trip. i think many ex-uber driver can confirm this.

which is why sometimes its a wonder why uber will send me 10km and 15 mins pick up trip in a hot-spot area...i can't be the nearest or the only driver around. 6/10 times, these far pickup rides are those high value ones.

and the cycle repeats throughout the day and week.

and uber compensate these far pick ups with its trip incentives. there's also min fare on uber which is chicken shit RM3. with good incentives, each trip is worth RM2-3 more..effectively, the fares are almost commission free.

damnn...i think i miss the uber app real bad....

Haha but i dont

any news on mycar requirement? jeez .. their website still not updated yet

...or former Viva drivers for Uber

Main reason drivers left Uber (not necessarily joined Grab) is inclusion of cash payment and withdrawal of ability to see destination.

A Grab driver I met said My Car riders can made multiple order per app...is it true?

Haha also interested 2 know as well

what is the benefit for multiple order per app?
can hint me?.. i have no idea of it

He said he tested it himself. It's bad for drivers, as riders can made multiple booking and see which driver came first.

However, kindly note that I haven't test it myself..hence asking if anyone else does.

Wow carbon copy of uber vs grab in 1 app

i see.. for reason e.g like price comparison , who come first , etc

nowadays riders also very intelligent... very choosy

Thats why we drivers must be more intelligent 2 counter that

This can't be intentional. Probably due to limitation in early software. MyCar is still learning.

Any promo code for mycar??

Nope😂😂
